Thanks, I just remember the Bounty and then later Veritasium also doing a video about cosmic rays. I remember the chances actually being surprisingly high, considering how much memory is actually used nowadays and wondering why it hasn't happened much more in different systems. So I waved it off due to ECC etc. taking effect most of the time. This is certainly true, but I probably also got the numbers wrong. So I'm also gonna watch Veritasiums video again more critically now and do some research. It's a very interesting topic for me.
