They want to ban porn in the entire country, it's all a part of #project2025. They also want to ban abortions. And being gay in public. And completely break the separation of church and state. Don't sit this election out. https://defeatproject2025.org/
Oh ho ho, not just in public my friend
If you can't be gay in public then you can't be gay at all. That's literally just forcing you to remain in the closet.
How is this not the top fucking comment??
Twenty-nine gigs?!? My brother in christ, that's barely even a Thursday. Are you ok? Do you need a VPN?
That's what I was thinking! Mine is over half a TB at this point!
Half??????
If you aren't in the realm of TB, you need serious help
Of course they need help. I'm seeding as best I can!
You're the hero they need.
To be fair, I caused a massive problem when I accidentally filled the drive completely, so I've been a little more conservative while I shop for a larger HDD. Thinking of getting a 20TB HDD so I don't have to have 4 different drives plugged into my computer. (I remember when my 3TB drive was considered crazy big...)
Nothing says land of the free like porn being illegal in half the states.
I'm so pissed. I organized all my favorite porns in an encrypted folder and thought it would be funny to use a hilarious password (that I've never used before). Then a week pass and I need to unlock the folder For Academic Purposes and realized I has COMPLETELY FORGOT THE PASSWORD! I've been trying for a month now with no success. FML. I got some personal stuff in there too.
Time to start you collection anew.
Got a few of "personal stuff" in there too. That's what I miss the most. Can't replace something like that.
Well i guess it is a good lesson to pick a passwort you either remember or have in a password manager. Also make backups.
Oh wow that must be like 40-60 videos? You can last for ... days!
Depending on when the collection was amassed. If it's 90's digital porn quality then that amount could last for decades.
I usually do not comment but i was weirded out with the file count (i know it is just a meme, and not serious, but lets assume that), then average file size is
28.9*1024MiB/14690 = 2.014540504MiB
(this assumes it is a standard windows install where windows counts in binary system, and represents with decimal units, but even if it actual GBs and GiBs, the error is small)
lets assume it is 144p (i usually watch yt at that), and lets assume you have it all in great cpu AV1, and lets take a typical yt bitrate at that quality (and lets assume its video only) 100 kbps
then average duration of a file is
2.014540504*1024*8kb/100kbps = 165.0311581s
so that is a little less than 3 mins (assume video bitrate stays constant throughout, which is definitely not true but easy to calculate)
and just for completeness, lets calculate the amount of total time to "watch'm all"
165.0311581*14690/(60*60*24) = 28.05911704
so that is a little over 28 days (i was expecting less, but then again, just a meme)
Edit: i left out the possibility of images, if that is the case, it is technically 0 time, but at the same time, a good JXL 2 MiB image is pretty good quality
Excuse me, what resolution do you watch YouTube in?
see when i started viewing youtube (2018-19), i had poor internet connectivity, and naturally started with 1080p, but my stream would stutter, so i started to decrease quality 1080>720>540 and so on), at same time, i started to watch stuff at higher and higher speed (normal is 2.3x for me now), and i realized i was not getting anything more by watching at higher res (i increase it to 360-480 sometimes if there is very small font, but rare), so i naturally grew to watch stuff at 144p, now i have good enough connection to watch maybe smooth 2x 4k (sometimes i get 200 Mbps) all the time, but never feel the need to do it (i have set mpv, yt-dlp, all my other video players, to have default res of 144 (or whatever the lowest they serve))
until last year, i used to watch youtube with "3gpp", they used to serve at 144x192 (so 4x3) at ~7fps, which at the usual speeds i watched, seemed pretty good (audio bitrate was roughly 15-20kbps), and was legitimately sad when they stopped doing that, i could no longer have a 10 min video under 5 MiB (with audio)
I used to maintain an archive of content i liked which was almost exclusively self compressed low bitrate x265, and only recently have started to save 720p-1080p (still plan to compress most to 720p AV1 at reasonable bitrates
mine is almost entirely images, and it's like 50GB.
You gotta pump up those numbers homie.
Also it's manually sorted, get fucked.
MetArt?
Rookie numbers 
Yeah, (O)OP is such a rookie they probably call it Homework, which is a well-known trick. The correct stealth strategy is a directory called linux_malware_test_vm_imgs containing archives such as

Back in the 90s I had a Zip disk labeled homework with porn on it. My little brother had a similar disk, but he kept it in his underwear drawer and got caught. Then our dad locked down our AOL accounts. I didn't find this fair, so I installed a keylogger, grabbed my dad's password, and unlocked my account.
My parents were not amused when I told them about this 20 years later when I found out my dad was still using the same password for his wifi.
You have an entire drive dedicated to pr0n ? Well, my humble collection is 1.1TB and it accounts for 3weeks, 3 days and 22 hours of continuing watching. Data hoarding and porn additions combine in a sort of cocktail combo...
Nice. Proud of you, keep it up.
29gb of porn? Did you just discover the internet fucking yesterday?
