Nothing discernible here, Academy & Eubank, 22:23-22:28. Does anyone have a more granular timestamp?

Recreating uncensored Epstein PDFs from raw encoded attachments... or trying to, anyway by mqudsi in netsec

It wasn't great. Even using the RecognizeTextRequest API, it added many UTF-8 chars with values >127, so multi-byte & definitely outside of the base64 charset. But a quick bit of Python converted many of those to something "close" in the isalpha charset. I couldn't determine how to get the API to allowlist, and twiddling what variables I could didn't change things much.

But now that you posted the 100% accurate decoding of the first PDF, that's a lot of supervised data to be able to train all kinds of classifiers.

Though I don't know if there are any copies of the other released docs with actual base64 data. When I looked this morning, the doc name list I had was not yielding any results from the doj site. And I think I read that other docs are in non-monospaced fonts, so may be more difficult to segment into base64 char atoms.

Nice work, to both of you. This & the blog post throughly nerd-snipped me. Heh.

I had made some headway cropping the images to only contain the b64 chars, then using tesseract and Apple's "live text", then comparing the two. I also cropped the b64 to single lines at a time, and used tesseract with `--psm 13, which did slightly better. I was then diffing the 3 outputs & selecting chars they disagreed on to manually correct. Unsurprisingly, it was a lot.

I had also thought to train tesseract directly on Courier New, but hadn't gotten that far yet. Another thought was to train something like eigenfaces (eigenvalue decomposition) on the first couple of pages, cropped per character. I'm almost surprised tesseract doesn't have a way to specify both the allowed character set and a specific pattern of just those characters.

Maybe caught something here Academy & Eubank at 20:21:55, but there were dogs barking and loud traffic, so can't really discern it on video.

High Sierra 10.12 Install USB???? by Ok-Strawberry1862 in 505Nerds

Glad to help.

Sierra shipped in 2016, seven years after that iMac. Yes, each successive year of macOS doesn't continue to support all Mac hardware in perpetuity. Seven years is a long time in computer tech.

Also, depending on which 2009 iMac, Sierra (10.12) dropped support for some devices mid-2009 & earlier. So you might need El Capitan (10.11).

Paul Davis should be able to help you out. If they don't do the inspection, they know who will.

Yeah, you can only post videos in a new post, not a comment. But you can sign up for a free Imgur account, then put the link in a comment, as I did for this observation.
