A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

the equivelent now is a 2TB ~ 8TB External Solid State Drive.
1 tape using SLP could hold 360 minutes.
LP it could hold 240 minutes.
So if you were poor there'd be tapes with 4.5 movies worth of terrible quality movies in order with one tape holding the first half of Hellraiser 2 and another holding the second half lol.
A five pack of blank tapes would be $20. So $20 essentially 700mb shitty cd sized video files for a movie. 4.5x5 = 30 movies at 700mb. 30x.700 = 21gb of storage.
A platter drive currently gets about $7/tb if you're going budget. $20 = ~3tb of storage.
142x the storage for the same price. And you can splurge on nice 1.4gb 1080p x265 rips instead. 3000/1.4= ~2143 movies for the same price lol.
E: Let's not even get into the cost of renting first, and owning two vcrs lol.
