For reference, the Apollo Guidance Computer, which got humans to the moon, did so with an amount of memory equivalent to 8 tweets.https://twitter.com/emollick/status/1340398272725311492 …

The Apollo Guidance Computer, which took us to the moon, compared to a Anker USB-C charger: The charger has 48x the clock speed & 1.8x more memory than the AGC!
The space shuttle ran on 8086 chips, here’s the best shuttle sim/game that ran on that chip! pic.twitter.com/z24AWpZ0E1Scientists have also successfully built logic gates by using swarms of soldier crabs. It takes about 80 
to operate a logic gate, and there are 8 logic gates in a byte, so 640,000 crabs can be used to store a single tweet. Which seems kind of horrifying. pic.twitter.com/j7JlC1lsyu
So a typical crab swarm like the one below has 100M crabs. If the were used to operate logic gates, that would store 156 tweets. Horrible, horrible tweets.pic.twitter.com/g6FoU12sFa
There also exists a tournament-legal deck of Magic the Gathering cards that turns any Magic game into a Turing Complete computer, capable of reading and writing data. In this case, you can encode a tweet with around 512 creature tokens (of 16 types). https://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.09828.pdf …pic.twitter.com/w562c01kNz
Maybe the most efficient super weird encoding method so far: slime mold circuits! It would only take a 2.5 inch by 2.5 inch slime mold to hold a single tweet, and, as the paper concludes: they are "self-growing & self-repairing & can be incorporated into hybrid wetware" (shudder)pic.twitter.com/3PODGpRG4v
Someone turn this into crypto.
crabto, if you will
I've heard people say Twitter is Cancer, but I didn't think it was so literal.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
