I watched a whole video on someone storing data as in-flight ping packets to the highest latency servers they could find. I don’t think we’re lacking in creativity at least.
That’s really cool. That was the 90s wasn’t it? I think I remember reading something about that in 2600. Cool though it may be, it’s just the same delay-line memory, but using the Internet as a medium rather than a drum of mercury. Which echoes what I was saying. I agree with you that creativity is not lacking now. I was just musing on how it’s mostly mapped off the map now rather than the territory.

This was much more recent, in 2022: https://youtu.be/JcJSW7Rprio
Edit: Wow, I completely forgot where this video went. The ping storage is only the first 10 minutes. I won’t spoil it, but it goes hard(er)
