Strap 20 sd card with 1TB capacity each. Send the pidgeon to a neighboring city, 2 hours flight time.
Bandwidth: 2.78 GB/s (assuming no wild hawks in the area)
"Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway."
high speed low drag
Not until I use my... dragnet
When "packet loss" occurs:
This little maneuver is gonna cost us 51 years
You are forgetting the time it takes to copy the data to and from these cards. Data may be transported, but it is not usable until you copy it. Copying 20 TiB is probaply going to take some time
Fastest SD card has ~300MB/s read speed and ~250MB/s write speed. Assuming you can write to those cards in parallel, that means you'll need an additional one hour to write the data to the SD cards and another one hour to read them back. So 4 hours in total which halves the data rates to 1.39 GB/s.
That's assuming the card can actually sustain ~250MB/s write speed during the full 1TB copy. It probably can if the card is freshly formatted but I haven't actually tested it myself.
you have the same problem with downloads though. In the end any download rate exceeding your disc write speed doesnt get you there faster.
ofc. you can write as you download, which makes things faster.
MicroSD cards are better, here. They're 250mg; a pigeon can transport 75g. That's 300 microSD cards, ignoring the weight of the SD card enclosure.
That's a terrible ping 😂
We had a TV report about a photographer who actually transfered big files with via horse because the transfer over the internet was slower than a calm ride. (Germany - 2021) link for Germans
When Baldur's Gate 3 came out our group of friends wanted to start a game together. Since one of our friends, living about a kilometer away, has shitty internet it was faster for me to download the game myself, copy it to a USB stick, have it driven over by another friend, copy it onto the friends PC and verify file integrity than downloading it.
German internet in a nutshell.
So yeah, IPoAC would've it's purpose.
For render the first picture of a black hole a couple of uear ago, the data transfer was done through hdds transported by a plane, than a data transfer through Internet, because the former was so much faster.
You are joking. But https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/ is real.
German internet in a nutshell.
At least you got better healthcare.
IPoAC is a joke about printing actual IP packets, sending them by pigeon, then scanning them.
You do the whole usual TCP ACK/SYN thing, but with pigeons.
It's not the same as 'sneakernet, but strapping microsd cards to a pigeon'. It's way, way sillier.
I'm assuming English isn't your first language, but "IPoAC would've it's purpose" is grammatically awkward. "Would've" doesn't really work for possession. Instead you can use "would have," but people would typically say "IPoAC has it's purpose"
Thanks for the clarification. You're right, English isn't my first language.
I'm a bit confused by your sentence:
""Would've" me doesn't really work fur possession. Instead you can use "would have""
That's the same thing, isn't it? My idea with using "would've" was that IPoAC would have it's purpose, if it was a thing. I'm missing the descriptive word in either language right now.
But also super high throughput.
The protocol is highly susceptible to DOS attacks by means of BB guns, slingshots or, for more sophisticated hackers, trained hawks.
"Unintentional encapsulation in hawks has been known to occur, with decapsulation being messy and the packets mangled."
more sophisticated hawkers, if you will
Or more sophisticated hawks
Some guys actually managed to do a ping using this standard. I saw pictures and all.
And apparently it was better than the local internet provider
"an example of packet loss" 🤣
Yes, we also saw the same post you did.
Ahh, the good old RFCs dated April, 1st. This one is number 1149 ( A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams on Avian Carriers), and got later updated in RFC 2549 (IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service).
Please note that IPoAC may suffer fatal device failure when delivering HTTP 418 error codes due to packet overheating.
Old news, it's been superseded by RFC6214.
“ There is evidence that some carriers have a propensity to eat other carriers and then carry the eaten payloads.”
This is gold
You need to set a pretty damn high timeout time for this to work.
Imagine playing a shooter over a network using this protocol.
FPS by mail
Of course there is an xkcd (or rather what if on it)
I only torrent over IPoAC.
Routing information protocol, little pigeon, routing information protocol.
Government drone birds can handle surprisingly large amounts of data.
My neighbor bought a bird feeder, how do I defend against MitM?
Buy better seed and a bird bath.
So it's obviously not a sneakernet. Is it a wingnet?
Instead of Honey-Pot it's a "Bird-Feeder."
802.29pf is the current accepted standard.
The Falcon model is capable of delivering micro SD drives at 200mph and slotting it through the mail delivery port with binocular vision based dual redundancy known as the "cone-of-vision handshake."
Gee willkers what's this
The irony of wind powered Internet.
