    I know you’re joking and that there’s a lot of garbage videos out there, but what possible value would there be in sending a novel per second? Can anyone read a novel per second? It only makes sense to use the higher bandwidth to send higher density information like video, audio, or interactive media like games.

You can cram an entire Baldur’s Gate 1 walkthrough with maps and all into the footprint of some bro saying “so you grab the wrench -”. Literacy rates are horseshit nowadays, wonder why
