We are now proud owners of 17.2 Exabytes of "cookies, site data and cache". 17 Billion, 179 Million, 869 Thousand and 184 GB. Sure, Firefox. Sure. I think it broke! I almost don't want to fix this, this is hilarious. Also, it is complaining about "running out of disk space" constantly now. (For reference: One (1) Exabyte of storage was first available in one location in 2011, apparently. The CERN is using a total of one (1) Exabyte of storage since somewhen in September 2023. Apparently there's a theory that every word every spoken by the whole of the human race adds up to ~5 Exabytes.)

#silly #sillyposting #firefox #So we think it broke because it memory leaked #We were just rapidly opening and closing a dnd 5e wiki to go through what spells a druid can learn #Whilst editing a pdf that got synced to OneDrive #So I think somewhere in all of that it leaked #It crashed #we restarted #and then it claimed to be using 17.2 Exabytes of disk space #Can I please actually have that disk space tho? I could store so many games and such
