But that is usually not the end of it, because diarrhea causes the disruption of bowel movements, contributes to nerve damage, enlarged hemorrhoids, and may lead to inflammatory bowel disease, that, in turn, sets up an alternating pattern of diarrhea and constipation for the rest of oneâs shortened life.
Text Message Bits and Bytes. SMS text messages use 7-bit characters and have a maximum length of 160 characters, making the maximum data size of each SMS 1120 bits, or 140 bytes. If an average mp3 song from iTunes is 4 MB, a text message is 0.0001335 MB. Almost nothing. So now weâre down to less than 4/10ths of a cent for 0.0001335 MB, or roughly $30 per MB. How does that compare with the current data plans offered by wireless providers? AT&T sells: A 200 MB monthly plan for $15 â 200x the data for half the price!
At roughly 20 cents a pop, text messages are expensive. But it takes a bit of perspective to realize just how pricey they really are. Short-message-service messages (that's the official name for text messages, often abbreviated to SMS) have a maximum of 160 bytes of data. Unless you purchase a bulk text-message package (which can cost as much as $20 per month), the 20 cents-per-message rate adds up to $1310.72 per megabyte.
