abuses Google's systems, records it and puts it up on a Google platform.
_sometimes my genius is quite frightening_
Backs up video of abusing Google’s systems meant to be uploaded to the Google platform onto another a Google platform, abusing it.
Wait! This just gave me an idea. Encode the data into video frames using some clever method that won't get destroyed by YT video compression, break it up into a few thousand videos to get some parallelism, upload all those to YT as unlisted videos.
Edit:
So apparently 8k YT vid is like 200MB/min, so we'll use that as max theoretical bandwidth for compressed 8k, so whatever cleaver encoding method you use can never carry more than that.
So 370 TB at 200MB/min of video would be 1,850,000 minutes, or 30,833 hrs, or 3.5 yrs of video. So that could be made into 5,000 6.2hr videos.
Conclusion: Why is no one doing this. Seems perfectly reasonable.

@@DC-xj9xp So I was watching this vid and Network Chucks video about the unlimited Gsuite Gdrive. Has google like stopped this from happening or can I legit just pay $12 a month for unlimited backup space. (even though im completely content with about 5-10TB of backup data)
Mime without a Box starts slowing down after 150 GB, I think
@@springbok4015 slowing down as in upload speed? Total data can't exactly slow down if that's what you meant.

@@phlooke just buy an edu email for like 5$ online and you will have unlimited data for gdrive amongs other benefits.
We will laugh at this video in 10 years time, when we have 100TB USB drives.
yeah... 100tb in a usb stick is pretty much impossible due to physkal limitations

Unfortunately the problems only scale with the solutions. At that time they’ll probably be uploaded VR captures or something like that lol.

John: no.... Why?

Why didn't you just make 25,000 Gmail accounts and use the free 15 GB of drive space?
bruh
They have to hire two data engineers for cataloging
@@luca._. And your data is also encrypted for free.
@@luca._. photos go through lossful compression before uploaded to Google photos so the new backed file is not the same as it previously was, some data are lost which may or may not be important but doing so is an idiotic solution
@@luca._.its Always compressed. But in small amount if less than 16MP (generally unnoticable) but if greater than 16MP its compressed down to 16MP which is heavily noticible.
Plot twist: This is just advertisement for Google Drive Unlimited
Chrysanthemum Even if it wasn't meant to, it does make it seem attractive. Or at least makes people aware of the option. I didn't know about it. So yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
This really could be true
It's true, because in this video they clearly seem to excuse Google's dumb limits for paid storage.
This blew my mind. Knowing Linus he would do that just because he monetizes everything lol. This would be a super undercover ad
Chrysanthemum can’t be an ad for Google Drive Unlimited, it doesn’t have Linus saying a line to conveniently transition from the main video ;)

Normal people just don't keep 760tb of raw 8k footage haha
Itz Terra How much of that footage would they reuse anyway?
they should use lossless encoders like ffv1 (supported by premiere through directshow) or x264 or huffyuv
(of course that might introduce problems when you want to reopen projects (you need to tell Premiere where to find all referenced videos), but it'll save lots of space for a bit of computing time)
TheMonkeyButte . Probably very little. There is significantly more footage than will ever be used in a finish product for every segment they shoot, but they never know if they will need it in the future. You know like hoarders, just digitally.
The show is now driven by them trying to keep their infrastructure running!

Buys a $100k camera, decides to never delete a footage, builds a 1PB server aaaaand.... cheaps on backup! Way to go Linus!
Lol
ah.... That's papa linus for ya!
if you go out and buy a 500$ camera and a bunch of hard drives to go with it so your total bill is ~1000$ for photography/vidiography, discluding whatever you have to pay to edit it (you probs have a pc its ltt's channel lets call it negligible in this case.) do you really want to have to spend like 100$ a month to backup on cloud, and another 100 a month if you ever want to use the backup... like that's about how this scales if you want to know in like single person channel terms.
these cloud storage servers aren't meant for 8k archives necessarily their usually for like business files and backlogs, or other kinda of archives that aren't as thirsty as 8k footage for sure lol like pictures and other kinds of storage. their youtube servers are more for video streaming and storage, plus they cap that at 4k anyways. the other enterprises that would store 8k footage would be like film studios, netflix and shit. they usually would have their own servers and wouldn't care about 1000s a month because the budget is on a whole other scale. ie like nearly 100 million for a marvel movie or just 10s of millions for like a lower budget 8k 'cinematic' type project like a netflix original or tv series. still way outside a youtubers budget and ridiculous you think not spending 5000 a month or 100k up front when theres alternatives, 'cheeping out', theres reasons to try out different competing services, and they ran up against a wall with the cap but its not like if googles like you need a different local ip for the machine they wouldnt just give each (of the 5 main) editors an account. they had good options in the video for if it doesn't work out, mostly sure their just trying to see if it works and get some content thats achivable for viewers, but alot of the time with the internet thats just making t worse for those who knew.
He didn’t “cheap on backup”. If someone buys a $1500 computer and buys a $20 power supply, then that is cheaping out. Linus bought a $1500 computer and got a $200 power supply for $20.
not paying 100k for backup is reasonable.

Just make some torrents and give us a magnet link. There's 6.6 million of us, you'll have the biggest distributed backup stored for free.
Yes!
Great idea
No everyone have 1 petabyte in their pc
Now, what happens if a persons computer crashes. I am guessing that there is a lot of redundancy, as in multiple users have the same data. What happens if they ever need the data. Would all pcs need to be on for them to be able to download it? Not crapping on your idea, just genuinely curious how it would work.
Wouldn't offline computers cause corruption?
After benefiting for this feature for many years I recieved an email yesterday from google asking me to free some space since I am only allowed to use 10TB only or upgrade my plan

@@DiNitride I actually didn’t realize that at first and appreciated the additional context
What about Google uses this as an advertising tactic? "See? We told you it was unlimited. The most inexpensive and unlimited cloud storage option ever."
they loose money tho
@@ska368 sorta but that's a lotta work. So unless more companies use that exploit it prolly won't hurt em
I still think they will do something about it.70 $/mth compared 15k upfront plus 12k$/mth It makes no sence to keep the loop hole; the difference is too big !
It really comes down to the details of the terms of agreement on what you upload to them. For example do those terms say that google has the right to resell that data? Will google be required to give them access to their data immedately? Will linus's face now impair google AI?
At this point Google CAN'T ban Linus, despite TOS violation - I think, 5 user has to be real people, and not just 5 accounts on VMs (hello, mr Jick Tiny). But Linus is public person, and its better to say "see? We told you it was unlimited" and loss money, than ban him and maybe provocate scandals and statements that it is false advertising.
Thanks for getting Google to get rid of unlimited storage for the rest of us

Can you do an update on this video? I'm curious to know if google plugged the hole.
Quote "Google G Suite Terms of Service": "You acknowledge that Google may have set no fixed upper limit on the number of transmissions that you may send or receive through Google services or the amount of storage space used; *however, we retain the right, at our sole discretion, to create limits at any time with or without notice.* "
Your Quote is not in the (current) ToS: policies.google.com/terms?hl=en
@@watcheths Wrong ToS - check the link from SkyeEverest :)
The quote is in both links, in the 7th clause at the end of the first paragraph
That probably goes for every cloud storage platform. They will all cover their ass by retaining the right to change the terms whenever they want. Doesn't matter whether that service costs $1000/year or $100,000/year. That clause will always be there to keep them from getting sued or in case anyone finds a loophole.

Now as a retired long time IT manager I found that you better test your backups. Nothing worse than having a major system failure such as a fire or raid controller failure and finding your backups are bad.
yeah, 3.5in floppies, memory cards, hard drives bigger than 25 gb, dvd+r, dvd-r, blueray, those are so unreliable, it's crazy how quick in storage years your backups get corrupted or unreadable. The only real reliable backup media is the tape backup, but you need to be sure that you'll have a working drive to read them later. (remember external ultra-wide scsi plug and parallel printer port, now they're gone, also the same can be said for the application and required operating system)
Hello from 2020. Google ended Unlimited Drive storage (and Photos too) thanks to this guy. Damn it
Edit: Thank you so much for the likes :)
just wait till the day Google charges them for uploading videos to TH-cam.
@@yuvtube1 TH-cam is a social media that has ads. Also, TH-cam will forcefully add ads to every single video.
me: buying a 128 gb sd card
LTT: buying petabytes of storage
I have 512SD and 1TB HDD Ö
Tristan Popken who asked?
no one
My *entire phone* only has 64 gb
Thats 1/2 of your *sd card*
Wow

why oh why
You just noticed?
YOU RITE AAAAAAAAA
Holy moly I did not see that
Ya the new one is horrible
OMFG... Linus, I worked at an amazon datacenter. I have specifically told coworkers to "lift with your back in a lifting twisting motion" in front of the safety officer because I was making a point at how heavy the petabyte systems we were implementing were to hardware-eng. my god that was so spot on. Sorry but that made me have a spot of nestalgia.
people like Linus are why my "unlimited" data plan on my phone throttles after a certain amt of monthly data.
Linus, did you hear that? That distant thundering sound.. the sound of inevitability.. That's the sound of *Google's massive hammer* smiting you to oblivion..
Linus' data is probaby like a droplet on a hot stone for google's uber massive infrastructure.
Upvote for The Matrix reference.
Except that the infrustructure has running costs, and US electrcity costs have gone up. Storage cost may do them in becuase at 10 USD for 500 TB for lets say 1 millon people it's alot of juice.
99.999% of users will never go past 10 gigabytes, Ricardo.
I'd like to see proof and the problem is more people hooking up. People like photos and videos so it's not so much a data problem is that people store big files.
is that 99.99% going to be true in 2050?
Wrap the server with flex tape

Oh man I cracked when he said Canadian rubles 😭
nice birthday present from 2018 a video about google drive and some sponsors...
4:14 "See me after class" I laughed so hard! xD Good...!
It shouldn't be I.E, but rather E.G, so Crazy was right there, since he was just giving an example of a cloud solution, not a definitive choice.
He called him _Linux,_ lmao
@@ixalaz4536 All over the place in terms of practicality, but seems to magically make computers work better... Yup Linus = Linux confirmed
@@YassineOG But the guy wrote "i.g.", so wrong either way :P But I agree there should be "e.g.".
@@wmqkla Ohh!! I didn't catch that hehe. Indeed, you're right. Thank you for the heads up.
Gotta love people who announce to the whole world, tricks that you've been relying on.
Yup, RIP
exactly... rip my storage
🤦♂️Yep..
It is like telling women that "food and beverages" on credit card statements means strip club.

Hahahahaha!
yeah mr rich boi everyone has 20k pounds laying around their wallet
I have done the same but with my old school account, so basically my school change the school domain so they changed all scholar google accounts, but the olds accounts are still working and are unlimited and no one is using them
Oh. no! unlimited storage going away now in late 2020....
