Comment on I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store
MufinMcFlufin@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoI also did some napkin math on it and got a very different number. I don’t have the game so I saw people reporting the game is 150GB on PC. CDs can store up to 700MB of data, so (150 x 1024) / 700 ≈ 219.4 but we can round that up to 220. The standard CD is 1.2mm in thickness, so 220 x 1.2mm = 264mm which is a quarter of a meter.
I’m curious how my result differed from yours.

I screwed up my units a bit and did gigabytes and megabits. You’re right. It would be a little shorter than an average ruler.
