anyone stumbled upon the ejaculation bandwidth problem? (sperm count multiplied by gen info encoded in each sperm that is broadcasted when it happens?)

The problem here wouldn't be the transfer rate but the encoding of random data into DNA.

Wanna try to encode your bitcoin wallet into your DNA? If so, 2 recommendations though:
1. Try not to ejaculate the private keys.
2. Cheating/polyamor will cause double-spend issues.

in the office where i work there's an urban legend that goes like this:
pigeon with micro sd card is more efficient (faster) way to transfer file from office A to B located across the town than the corporate network. the funny part is they claim to try it and the pigeon was faster then the transfer online.

anyone stumbled upon the ejaculation bandwidth problem? (sperm count multiplied by gen info encoded in each sperm that is broadcasted when it happens?)

and shipping disk arrays with data instead of download/upload is common practice even today

Don't underestimate the bandwidth of a truck full of tapes

According to U-Haul's site and Wikipedia, a U-Haul 10' truck filled with LTO-5 tape drives can carry 45,414 tapes, or 68,121 TB of data.
Assuming it takes exactly a day to drive it across to wherever, that's a bandwidth of 0.7884375 a second, or a whopping 826,736.64 MB/s bandwidth on the truck itself.

Of course there is the time to write to the tapes, the time to load the tapes in the truck, the time to unload, the time to read, etc.

EDIT:
These calculations do not take weight into account.

That's the idea heh, especially considering the falling prices of 2TB drives.

I'm willing to sell data, for people who have limited internet speeds, I can fill up a hard drive (that you provide or that I buy) with whatever data you want, and then mail it to you.

PM me for details, I have 30/30 internet so I can fill drives fairly quickly.

Payment in PPUSD or Bitcoins.
