What I mean is: You can type an entire novel on a computer, and oopsie a random cosmic bitflip and system crashes and now its all gone. Or you do a lot of filming and the digital file can get corrupted. Where as stuff like, a typewriter, it’s less likely to just be all gone due to some malfunctions. Same with film, a cosmic bitflip can’t delete all your footage.
Know what I’m sayin’?
A cosmic bitflip is unlikely to lose all the data
In a video, you’ll get one frame of distortion (if it’s a key frame, it may be several seconds of distortion)
Similarly for a text file, picture, etc.
99.999% of the time you wouldn’t notice
