People that make claims without evidence will have them dismissed for exactly that reason. If that’s putting you off, then kiss off, moth.

    You don’t own the data. You own a piece of plastic and some foil. The foil is pitted with data. You don’t own that data. You do own a mostly worthless piece of plastic.

    If you don’t think they can revoke your access to the data on “your media” you haven’t been paying attention.

    There’s plenty of gaming consoles out there that never went online to get there license agreement for their DVD player or Blu-ray players and they can’t play Jack shit. There’s plenty of drives out there that are region locked so if your media isn’t from that region you’re not going to play it.

    Of course the same applies to digital media and things like YouTube and other streaming services.

    Again, you don’t own shit except a worthless piece of plastic and a little fragile bit of foil with all that juicy data.

    The physical disc doesn’t change the fact that you don’t own a license to the content otherwise than access through that medium.

    A digital copy, with a fair license agreement, you could be able to stream or download or access this content on something besides an easily breakable disc.

    But people are ducking retarded. Especially gamers. You live to be manipulated.

    Yes.

    If you really want to see some interesting data then search data eye. It’s basically an infinity. Yet the exact eye itself is the dual peak and valley (DDR transmission on rise and fall off the signal).

    This is why memory is positioned as close to the CPUs possible because the longer those traces are the more latency that’s involved but ultimately in memory even though we’ve gone to much higher bandwidth latency has remained pretty similar for the last several decades.

    So yeah that’s why you often see the CPU … and the ram is right next to it on the motherboard! And if you go better than that you might get some high bandwidth memory on the chip itself otherwise known as cache. Which level 1 caches can exceed 1 TB/s. Most RAM you’re looking at 10s of GB/s. There’s even some that can certainly hit around 100 GB/s. But that’s usually the more specialty gddr. The data eyes on quad pumped memory are quite beautiful. Kind of like fractals.
