Storing Files in the Walmart Chip Aisle

Happy April Fools' day! Since my file storage videos are by far the most popular, I went out of my way to find the absolute stupidest method of file storage I could possibly think of. And this is it. Peak file storage.
Anyways, it was really fun to make, hope you all enjoyed. I still have the $500 worth of bounties to be claimed from my last video in my discord server, so join to read about it and compete.

@droko9 Ай бұрын

You could double the storage capacity by having the chip bags rotated up or down, so a chip bag up and forward would be 00 and a chip bag upside-down and facing backwards would be 11

@riley1636 Ай бұрын

You could also use the number of chip bags to store some information too. This would not compress the physical work required, but it would compress the physical space on the shelves that it takes up.

You could theoretically install doom if you used the chip isle in every Walmart in the US I looked it up the original doom is 2.39 MB. So we have to get a bit creative here. I saw one of the top comments on this video suggesting the storage capacity could be doubled if the bag could be rotated on its sides as well. So this would bring our total storage capacity to 1.2 megabytes. In order to up our storage to have doom we may have to also use the cookie isle. Assuming we use a similar system to the chip isle and the cookie isle stocks a similar amount of cookies and we are to use the same system of both rotating the cookies on an axis and using the front and back of the package we could theoretically up the Walmart chip and cookie storage to 2.4 megabytes leaving us with enough space to install doom with 0.1 megabytes leftover. As for actually playing it I don't know I didn't think that far ahead.

@mymo_in_Bb Ай бұрын

One big problem with using a huffman tree for storing such a short string is that you need to store the tree itself, otherwise it won't make any sense and won't be decodable. Since only a few characters in the string actually repeat, the number of bags you'd need to flip would actually be greater than if you just stored it in plain text.

Basic state: Unopened can of Pringles, standing upright, facing forward States 2-4: An unopened can of Pringles, but facing each of the other cardinal directions (left, right, back) States 5-8: Open the can (Peel back the wrapper), but leave it attached. Face the can towards the cardinal directions, standing upright. States 9-16: Same as states 1-8, but place the can upside down States 17-32: Same as states 1-16, but eat all of the chips inside, such that the cans don't have anything inside States 33-128: Same as states 1-32, but face the intercardinal directions (Northwest, Southeast, etc.) States 129-1024: Add in the secondary intercardinal directions (NNW, ENE, etc.) States 1025-2048: Put one chip from inside the can on top of the can States 2049-4096: Place the chip upside down States 4097-32768: Take a bite out of one side of the chip, such that you know which way the chip is facing. Point the chip in any of the intercardinal directions. Now we have the equivalent to 16-bit computing, but instead of wasting 16 bits for each data unit we only use 1 can (and up to 1 chip from each can) of Pringles. Hire me google.

Update 1.1: If the chip is not on top of the can, use the chip at the top of the can, and place it inside the can. I don't care about how you're supposed to do that with an unopened can, what, you're not able to quantum tunnel through the wrapper?
