it clearly says 98.32 KB :3

Actually, it says 98.32kb. That's a big difference.

Tf is a kilobarn

[–] BautAufWasEuchAufbaut@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What program is this? And why does it not show kilobytes for either side?

[–] glibg10b@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

It's Termux, a terminal emulator for Android. I typed the top part, which starts qalculate (basically Wolfram|Alpha with units) and gives it the expression 98.32 kb to KB

I was expecting it to convert 98.32 kilobits to kilobytes, but it instead interpreted the 'b' to mean barns. The actual unit for a bit in qalculate is 'bit':

(Just a joke, don't take that too seriously)
