And now standards organizations want us to use those GAY prefixes that sound faggish. But we EXPERT PROGRAMMERS refuse and resist, and keep using the old-style KB, MB and GB prefixes meaning powers of 1024, as it should be. Choose your side, /prog/. Are you for faggotry or expertise?

When I use système international prefixes, I don't want a single extra ``i'' LETTER
of worthless 1024 vs 1000 differentiation and ridiculous marketing crap!
I just want a KILOBYTE!!
Not a ``kibibyte''.  Not a ``mebibyte''Those aren't even WORDS!!!!  SI!
SI!
SI IS THE STANDARD!!!
