How many bytes is in kilobyte?

1000
s&h

1024 in general, 1000 for disk manufacturers

why do they do this

About three fiddy

they're following the actual spec. MS isn't

kilobyte vs kibibyte...

Can you imagine how much grief it would have saved everyone if the fucking autistic piece of shit that decided the closest power of 2 was better than using 1000?

*had just used 1000?

are you ok

google is so fucking hard

Kilobytes is SI-normed, so 1000
Kibibytes (kilobinarybytes) are 1024

Wangblows uses 1024, but calls it kilobytes because boomers would flip.

one kilo

And ISP use freaking bits.

Mb instead of MB. Makes them look so fast .....

A kilobyte is a different metric to a kibibyte, most computers should use kibibyte and to confuse things micsoft only ever describes in word "kilobyte" but never "kibibyte" for some reason.

A kibibyte is 1024bytes, a kilobyte is 1000bytes

>*they want to trick buyers with bigger number
FTFY. If that's the spec then why RAM manufacturers doesn't do it?

2^10

I think there's a lot, probably over 100

>How many bytes is in kilobyte?
1024 bytes are in a kilobyte. That is the only fact based answer to that question, everything else is just npcs repeating committee approved new speak because they can't do anything else.

>most computers should use kibibyte
No, they really shouldn't.

1000
1024 in a kibibyte
125 in a kilobit

1000.

they should, and they do
even windows, which incorrectly uses the kB/MB/GB/etc unit names, displays numbers using the binary prefix definition

kilobytes are not real. only multiples of 2 are real units of measurement for information.

networking has always used bits, ISPs aren't being special

>I have 4 bytes of memory
>that can store 1024 unique values
>I know, what if we just throw away the top 24 values
Absolute genius. Lets rewrite computer architectures and all programs from scratch in base 10 instead of just using kilobyte and kibibyte naming conventions.

computer information*
this is true, storage devices are advertised with the true definition of kilobytes, but literally /no other use/ uses this definition in computing, everything else either incorrectly uses kilobytes to refer to kibibytes (such as windows), or uses kibibytes

Literally every OS uses the correct kilobyte except Wangblows

This.

The JEDEC standard for binary is what should be used for binary.
1KB is 1024Bytes

1KB = 1024 Bytes
nuStandard trash KibiByte for toddlers and leftists ~ 1000.

Just like how the underage think 1440p is 2K, yet UHD is 4K which would make 1080p 2K, but all is wrong.

>1KB is 1024Bytes
Wrong. 1KB is 1000 Bytes
1 KiB is 1024 bytes.

Hello underage fag, are you illiterate or do you have a word filter for the words binary and JEDEC?
