Strikingly foreshadowing concerns of later decades, the 1964 Soviet novel World Soul (translated into English) by Yemtsev and Parnov dramatizes a supercomputer which uploads all human identities and downloads them in a global nightmare of scrambled individuality. In 1970 the co-authorship with Yemtsev has ceased. He died in 2009.

gollark: If you drop the images and HTML formatting and whatever else most ebooks contain, and do compression better than ZIP does, you could probably reach some *ridiculous* compression ratios.
gollark: An average ebook is something like 1MB and that's for 100000 words + cover image.
gollark: If it's *anything* but "basically 100% of the day" you need batteries.
gollark: "1/3 of the day, when it isn't cloudy" is not most of the time.
