it's an SI thing. Historically kilobyte etc were powers of two, but in SI these prefixes were powers of ten

Wouldn't it be MEBIBIT?
 
if you're working in powers of 1024 instead of 1000, you replace the second syllable with "bi" (for "binary")
 
2:25 AM
So now kilobytes is a 1000 and kibibytes is 1024

I see me and 0' have a dynasty going
 
2:37 AM
Mignonette sauce is a condiment usually made with minced shallots, cracked pepper, and vinegar. It is traditionally served with raw oysters. The name "mignonette" originally referred to a sachet of peppercorns, cloves, and spices used to flavor liquids, but now simply means cracked pepper. Though different mignonette sauces may use different types of vinegar, all contain pepper and shallots. == See also == List of condiments List of sauces Food portal == References... ==
