Nearly every Computer on this planet is based on binary(zeros and ones) so shouldn't we learn to read it?
The Answer is easy.
Beacause it's a useless skill, but i'ts geeky and fun so why the hell not.
So this is our example:
01010101011100000111011001101111011101000110010100100000011010010110011000100000011110011101111 011101010010000001101100011010010110101101100101011001000010000001110100011010000110100101110011
First of all we'll have to split it into byte sized packages(8 bit equal 1 byte). Then our example would look like this:
01010101 01110000 01110110 01101111 01110100 01100101 00100000 01101001 01100110 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 00100000 01101100 01101001 01101011 01100101 01100100 00100000 01110100 01101000 01101001 01110011
After that we can just remove the first 3 digits of each block. This would then look like this:
10101 10000 10110 01111 10100 00101 00000 01001 00110 00000 11001 01111 10101 00000 01100 01001 01011 00101 00100 00000 10100 01000 01001 10011
Now we reached the state where we can read it, we'll just need to know how to count in binary and here is the only part where it gets complicated, you´ll read every box (and therefore every character) from right to left and count up like this:
The digit in the end is worth one(00000001 therefore equals one)
The digit before that is worth two(00000010 therefore equals two)
The digit before that is worth four(00000100 therefore equals four)
The digit before that is worth eight(00001000 therefore equals eight)
The digit before that is worth sixteen(00010000 therefore equals sixteen)
Now you'll have to add these up, so 01010101 is read like 10101 and as an adition written as 1+4+16 this equals 21 and therefore you#ll need to look for the 21 character in the alphabet.
Knowing this our text now looks like this:
u p v o t e 00000 i f 00000 y o u 00000 l i k e d 00000 t h i s
Obviously you can already read this, it says "upvote if you liked this" and every clever reader should realise, that if the number you get after the calculation is o this obviously is a space.
So thats about it, if you's also like to know wether a character is upper or lower case, than the first 3 digits are either "o1o" for upper case or "011" for lower case.
