Of course, real-world limits on computing capacity would prevent it from ever producing that level of destruction in practice, so the explosion depicted here is still laughably exaggerated.
Fun fact: According to Landauer's principle, this zip bomb would theoretically have more than 27 times the explosive power of the global nuclear arsenal.
ofc, i mean the internet is a few hundred zetabytes, not billions of uettabytes
this file size would brick your computer, nothing on earth could hold this amount
example: if you zip 16 copies of a file, you get 16^i files where i is iterations of zipping zip process, and: 16^2 = 256 files, 16^5 = 1048576, and at just 10 iterations which is 16^10 you get 1099511627776 files, imagine that automated
ilikecheese321 exponential power grows really quickly, and you can just copy a zip file some amount of times and zip the zips, then repeat till you get a size you like, or automate all of that, which has no real point functionally after some time
was the 114 qb zip bomb actually that or just a file titled that? did anyone actually prove it?

what is a zip bomb?
