Long time ago I had a 3.5" HD floppy disk Linux with graphical user interface and ethernet and some programs on it. But 64 bit and the increased kernel size probably make this difficult nowadays.
But there's so much room for ACTIVITIES!!!
And on linux, so much room for cache that doesn't have to be dumped to disk!

In the future Gen β will whine to their parents that their cerebral implant is only 100 terabytes.
