Also a group of protesters blockading a Yahoo bus.

Mortanis posted:The funny thing about their compression system is apparently it doesn't need client side implementation to uncompress the data, given their intent with the porn streaming and the dude that nearly died in the zoo. It gets compressed and sent out and... magically uncompresses in the browser. Apparently the client side implementation can be run in javascript or something.

The nice thing about compression, and why they picked it for the show, is that the kind of improvements that they show are hypothetically possible and would be a big deal in real life too. We know better compression could exist so it's easy to say, what if it did. Of course people can get hung up on implementation details but the overall concept is solid.

My favorite little episode detail was the server farm engineer's badge which showed a grainy black and white photo of a much younger, much happier man.

I'm sorry but the tabs vs spaces gag was the best thing to happen all season and if you disagree get out.

Pope Guilty posted:There used to be a service where you could share files with the rest of the network in exchange for devoting a chunk of your hard drive to an encrypted portion of the network's files, with no way of knowing what that chunk contained. Guess what kind of files that service was full of. Wasn't that how WaffleImages worked back in the day?
