Let’s breakdown this meme
“I bought a 2TB SSD
But it shows as 1.8TB SSD”
So the obvious question:
Where did my 0.2TB go?
Short answer: nowhere. It’s not missing.
Here’s what’s really happening 👇
Storage manufacturers use decimal math (base-10):
1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes
So 2 TB = 2,000,000,000,000 bytes
Operating systems use binary math (base-2):
1 TiB = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes
But your OS still labels it as “TB”
When your OS converts the numbers:
2,000,000,000,000 ÷ 1,099,511,627,776 ≈ 1.8 TiB
That’s the “missing” space.
No files stolen
No secret partition
No shady SSD behavior

In conclusion: when you buy a 1TB storage, you get free bytes but when you buy 2TB you lose some (200GB)
So be smart and buy 2×1TB storage.

I'm trying to notify this Web3 startup company they have a pretty severe vulnerability in one of their products.
The CEO of the company advertises his Telegram handle, but trying to contact him he charges $1.49 per message sent to him
Dude what the fuck?

1. Deface the website.
2. Ask for $1.49 + fees of ransomware
3. Pay to DM the CEO about the vulnerability and ask for a $10,000 bounty hunter thing. (Would be very rude if he didn't pay.)
