Hobbyte

So the Fellowship of the Ring was made up of an elf, a dwarf, two humans, a maia and one hobnibble?

Thorin and Company were running with 1Hb across 3 movies while The Fellowship ran with 4Hb across 3 movies.

So we could theoretically say The Hobbit movies sucked because they were bottlenecking their performance due to not downloading having more Hb per movie.

Yeah, hobbit-serial architectures lack performance.

Hobbword doesn't quite work, does it?

What about Hoblong? Or Hobshort. Or HobIEEE-floating-point.

But a byte is 8 bits, not the other way around

What do you mean? The meme has 8 hobbits which make a hobbyte

I interpreted it as showing that 8 hobbytes were equivalent to a hobbit. I didn't see that it could be interpreted as saying each little frodo picture under the hobbyte was a hobbit until your comment.

It almost confused me at first as well. You are not alone. :)
