Every time someone mentions an interesting book, I make a note of it. Then a couple times a month, I go back through my notes, pop open a website that shall not be named, snag em all, throw them into calibre-web and sync them down to my ereader. I can get hours of enjoyment from a 1-2MB file, and I love that. Same for older cartridge-format game roms, a N64 rom is generally under 50MB and can keep me busy for days, an NES or GB ROM is usually smaller file size than a book, and some great old DOS games clock in at a handful of MB.
What other great bang-for-the-storage-buck stuff is out there that you enjoy?
I know it’s not the subject of this question but… Why is storage space size your metric?
Do you take pleasure in knowing your good experience came in a small package? Or are you storage space starved for some reason and that’s what guides your quest?
Entertainment-per-byte is an interesting problem. My solutions were tiny but highly replayable games. It’s been fun to see other people’s ideas, like writing things in Emacs.
I mean, as a thought experiment absolutely. Those old animated gifs that have clever uses of pallete shifting… The demos that have whole worlds in a few KBs…
I’m all about small packages
Lol nice one
