To be consistent with bytes we should call it a snack. 6 comments anigbrowl Reply SCUSKU 6 hours ago Henceforth, it follows that a doublesnack is called a lunch.

An 8 bit thing is obviously a bibyte. Then power of 2 multiples of them can include kibibibytes, mebibibytes, gibibibytes, and so on for clarity. 1 reply → cozzyd 3 hours ago And what about elevensies?(Ok,.

There's only one right answer:
Nybble - 4 bits
Byte - 8 bits
Snyack - 16 bits
Lyunch - 32 bits
Dynner - 64 bits
