Fallen Hearts

It’s 2018 and I still have no clue how CDs work. It’s a shiny disc, how do they get data on that, let alone that much?? Magic

Like a vinyl disc, where a physical groove is marked into the vinyl, a laser marks the ink of a CD in a similar manner. A laser (your disc drive) can then look at the pattern in the ink and understand it.

There’s no grooves on a CD tho???

Man how the fuck did they figure out how to make that

how did they figure out how to fit information in grooves in a piece of vinyl in the first place????

Fucking mad lads

 #the really wild fact is that even purely digital forms of storing information are basically just ‘count the bump’ technology really

Videos that make you reach for olive oil and vinaigrette

that baby is making biscuits on that cat. what a role reversal.

A supervillain in the making.
