I'm also naturally curious about the byte count --- using the accepted standard of 5 for words to characters, and since I almost never post anything but ASCII, I've been writing approximately 1.25KB per day here; or just over 5.5MB worth of text so far. Considering that English text compresses very well, and using ~20% as a rough ratio, this means that all ~1.2M words of my comments here, compressed, would still fit on one 3.5" floppy disk.

This is so cool. I genuinely hope you try it. I remembered the "website which runs on floppy" hn post from it. Maybe you can even have a website too which shows all your Hackernews comments while being on floppy.

I genuinely hope you do it!! Please let me know (mail me) if you ever do it!
