@fryrsquared: I'm well aware that the answer to most of my "have you ever wondered..." thoughts is highly likely to be: "No. I have not. You weirdo." But here we are.
My fingers feel heavier when I copy something on my computer and it gets lighter when I paste it

Thank you for intelligently expanding my awareness on the weight of full and empty harddrives. I will put it to no use whatsoever but will think of this everytime I download anything. 🤣

But zeros are fatter than 1s, so surely they're heavier? 🤔😂

I thought USB was a backup just in case everything goes horribly wrong with the USA and they need to restore it back to how it was before 😳😬😂

this isn't true, the electrons aren't permanently removed. they are moved to another part called the floating gate, so that the electrons can be restored when needed. for example deleting and altering data

But in NAND memory, 1 is the erased state and 0 the programmed state! The right conclusion is that mass is added with data.

It loses several more orders of magnitude mod mass per second from the solid materials in it sublimating molecules off.

A similar thing. I must’ve been bored but worked out if an all electric jumbo flew London - Sydney it’d be 0.001g lighter at the destination.

If that's true the drive would gett more charged as it fills up. Surely the electrons just move around rather than being “takej away”.

Does this mean that I get heavier when I forget something? 😆

did they not estimate, the whole internet (electrons wise, not the infrastructure) weighs the same as a raspberry?

far more is lost every time it's plugged in due to wear of the connector, boring but true.

I would suggest not, as solid state media is more like opening and closing a door, the door is still there, but open is 0 and close is 1. Some cells have multiple doors (MLC, TLC, QLC etc). The....

When I was at university, we used punch cards. A little program to choose the biggest number was a deck of cards that we used to give it to a man to process the program as we were not allowed into 1/2

So in fact you could argue the 0s and 1s are the wrong way round...... Zero means you have a pot of electrons and 1 means you have no electrons?
