Doubt this is true.

415 GB of electronic records, if it's in text and I assume it would be, it far far more than any single human being could go through in a lifetime. That's like the NYC Public library, SYSTEM.

Could be a lot of audio and video.

Would have to be almost entirely video. 128 GB of audio is like a year's worth of audio.

For good video quality, 415 GB is about 415 hours of video. That's still quite a bit, and that's quality you can use in a theater. You can go beyond that, but it's kind of pointless.

I play around with ffmpeg a bit, and if I take a video that is recorded at 4GB/hr and reduce it to 1, I can do a comparison of what is discarded. What you'll see is outlines in the comparison, and that's it. You can see what scene it's from if you know the video well, but that's it.

Video size is reducing for another reason, there's no film noise in digital, and if you want to simulate film noise, there's an algorithm for it. Noise is when the particles of film react differently to exposure because of non uniformity in the production process of the film - it looks like static and it's additive meaning every time you copy one film to another, you get more noise. People like Quentin Tarantino actually complain about the LOSS of this with digital and we now have people claiming they can see the difference between "film" and "digital" although adding static is trivial and that IS done..

That would barely contain the porn on Ceffers' computer.

I disagree with Cepher on a lot of things and he can annoy me by being sloppy on research, but I'll only criticize him on those grounds.

I'm a bit obsessive about "knowing what is going on" but the hardest part of doing that is sorting out the wheat from the chaff. There's so much bullshit created around anything the government is trying to cover up. You have to be diligent not to do the work of the FIB when exposing a criminal act of the government, or a criminal act the government itself is engaged in covering up.

The greatest liars and spreaders of actual disinformation are from people like Adam Schiff, Robert Mueller, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, etc. They are all tightly connected to intelligence or are actual intelligence. What the intelligence agencies lie about publicly, is nothing compared to how they spread lies privately as "individual concerned citizens", and actual individuals pick it up, run with it, and don't research it first. It's a responsibility to understand what is going on, and to be a filter in order not to waste people's time.

Truth is simple, lies are hard. The problem is lack of data to ascertain the truth, and bullshit works to hide the truth. If I talk about 9/11 to a normie, the first thing they will say will be something like "oh, you don't believe planes actually hit the building and they were just holograms? HAHA!" - no, there's a shitload of evidence that the FBI and CIA at the MINIMUM allowed it to happen, or were active conspirators in the plot. They murdered 3,000 Americans to start 20 years of war. Fuck the intelligence agencies.

My comment was not a criticism, it was a joke.

Yesterday, buried under wall-to-wall Israel coverage, the Washington Post ran a curious story headlined, “Biden interviewed about classified documents found at his office, home.”

The investigation continues, even though the FBI never raided his offices or his homes where Biden had scattered valuable U.S. classified secrets like they were spilled coffee beans, and you never know who might want to buy them later. Special counsel Robert Hur finally “interviewed” the Resident “over the last two days,” which would explain why Biden has been AWOL as the Israel crisis unfolded. WAPO cited unnamed sources for the information.

There wasn’t much more to the story. Unlike a deposition, an “interview” isn’t sworn, so Biden won’t be directly liable for perjury if he lied, but there are general laws about lying to federal officials that could come into play. It was interesting the interview took two days — Sunday and Monday — which suggests Special Counsel Hur went file-by-file and/or Joe rambled a lot and told stories about dogfaced pony soldiers back in the good old days.

It was also intriguing that the interview wasn’t rescheduled given the developing Middle East crisis. On the other hand, what does Joe really do, day to day, anyway?

Right below the end of the article was a link titled “There are key differences between the Trump, Biden classified documents investigations.” I didn’t explore it.

Ah, this is why CIA beheaded all these babies....
