So whatever happened to that goat who said he had the entire internet backed up since the 90s as a text document. Like, 20 terabytes worth of data. Last I heard he disappeared. Or was he larping?

His Mom grounded him and cut off access.

What kind of question is that.

Of course he was larping. You'd have to be so retarded as to bend the laws of physics to believe someone has internet backed up as a text document. The brainlet meme wouldn't even be close to the absolute void of inbred cretinism inside your mind.

Interesting few weeks ago I wish to collect all .pt domains and I discover common crawler.

They provide python tools to query database and retrieve pages. Since I wish to learn C I start developing a tool to parse common crawler json files. I will need to catalog the domains, so I will need to fetch information, strip html, images, css, javascript and then run "ultra light simple a.i." on it.

I'm writing this from a n450 atom computer (magalhaes), so I don't have that much computer power or disk space to save all data, but still able to do this kind of things.

Indeed. The staggering cost of retaining all that data over all these years would enormous and I'm pretty sure even just the text would outstrip 20tb.

I have 10tb in my backpack, cost under £200.

Would’ve been expensive back when but still not outside hobbyist budget.

You're only thinking of storage with today's technology and prices. What would that have cost 10 or twenty years ago? A 1 TB storage capacity in 1995 would have broken the bank of typical Voat users.

The speech to text telecom backup at the NSA is measured in exabytes and has to selectively record with AI. 20 Terabytes is not enough to backup even 1% of daily internet changes in websites. If one could even do it the DOD SIEM would pick it up almost instantly with that kind of broad scan. Engineering a spider farm to accomplish this unnoticed would be a multi billion dollar endevour. TL:DR dude was LARPing.

If you think the entire internet is only 20 terabytes you're crazy and have a very small understanding for how large it is

It was text only.

20 Terabytes is less than one day of Facebook messager text message logs. Have some perspective.

It is possible that you are correct. Apparently, there are 1048579mb in a tb, and 500 pages of text can fit into a mb, therefore, 10485790000 pages of text could fit in 20tb. And the jews have estimated that the entire internet would require 47000000000 pages (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2015/05/18/if-you-could-print-out-the-whole-internet-how-many-pages-would-it-be/?noredirect=on) Which means that you would need about 80tb to store the entire internet as text. Of course, this calculation seems to include images as well, which were purposely excluded in the text files. So it seems it is possible to fit the whole internet in a mere 20tb if you are only saving the text and excluding images and video and coding. I'm guessing.

You can't just back it up once, you would need incremental backups multiple times a day. The internet does not have that kind of bandwidth nor does that level of data storage exist currently on the planet Earth. What is being claimed here is not possible. You have been lied to.
