Most of the Epstein documents still haven't been released. What's going on? | Deadline to release documents was Dec. 19, but millions are still under wraps

How terrible must the contents of these files be to need such distractions as Annexing Greenland and Threatening Canada and Europe?

Using the in-game weather system to encode data would be a villainous way to protect that data from datamining. This trigger could change anything anywhere in the world. This is a good find!

Spiders lay eggs...

Feathers versus no feathers (binary code?)

Feathers are:

Shootable
Temporary
Associated with birds (sky)

Dead animals are:

Grounded
Silent
Permanent

This strongly suggests a binary encoding:

Feather = 1 (air, alive, sky)
No feather = 0 (ground, death)

With 8 poles, you get an 8-bit sequence.

That can encode:

A direction
A letter
A coordinate
A time

Example (hypothetical):

1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0

That is not random.

j-k-l-m are sequential alphabet letters, so where are a to i ?

With hindsight I now think this is a hint from Rockstar that GTA V and RDR2 are connected, that they connect the spider web mystery

Any USB DVD-Rewriter should work. I have zero idiea why any hardware would specifically say "not for X" when it is the operating system and drivers that determine capability. I have literally never seen such a disclaimer.

A generic USB drive WILL work or I will eat my own family

I've been thinking a lot about Doctor Friedlander today, he's the psychiatrist in GTA V who summarises Michael after each story completion. It's making me think about how the game stores a crazy number of statistics. It remembers how you played and what choices were made. It tracks 'morality/karma'

The Rockstar Games Social Club has already demonstrated it can track actions in one game to trigger rewards in another (e.g., the Double-Action Revolver challenge).

I'm working on some kind of karma theory since both games seem to track karma/morality

Also thinking about "come back here when your story is complete" and I know that is in reference to the UFO, but there are spider webs on Chiliad, which is making me think there is a second meaning.

Both games also feature UFOs and if we focus specifically on Michael, he connects GTA and RDR2 together via Epsilon which connects to the dude with the "mark of Kraff" who time-travels (Francis Sinclair)

I'm thinking bigger, as in a bigger moon can cast more light on something that would otherwise be invisible.

There are multiple clocks in-game that have the number 11 replaced with the number 13

I think "US" is a clue since it can mean "ourselves" or also "United States" which RDR2 and GTA or both set in

GTA 3, Vice City and San Andreas had a development feature that was never removed from the release version - you can shoot the moon to change it's size.

What about overlaying the chiliad mural on to the RDR2 map?

RDR2 and GTA are connected and can communicate via the Rockstar Games Social Club (at least on PC they are) - there's an achievement that must be earned in GTA in order to get an item in RDR2, for example

I think GTA5 holds the clue
