In the International System of Units (SI) the prefix kilo means 1000 (103); therefore, one kilobyte is 1000 bytes. The unit symbol is kB.
This is the definition recommended by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The term 'kilobyte' has traditionally been used to refer to 1024 bytes (210 B).
In December 1998, the IEC addressed such multiple usages and definitions by creating prefixes such as kibi, mebi, gibi, etc., to unambiguously denote powers of 1024
@norkwood@hentai.baby @hideki @matrix kilobyte has always meant 1024, but french niggers want to change it and call 1024 bytes a kibibyte, just because "muh powers of 10"
Makes me think of this. Fuck the frnech and everything they come up with
