Friends of Gabriel Chantayan

I don't usually tell this part, but I actually went to my cousin's house at 9am this morning just like I said I would, and she let me use her Compaq Presario 4670 with the USB drive. She made me wipe the dust off the floppy with a dryer sheet first because she said it smelled like the 90s lol

Here's the directory tree from GABE BRUSHES 04:

BRUSHSTROKES/
BRUSH_01.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_02.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_03.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_04.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_05.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_06.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_07.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_08.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_09.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_10.BMP (8,192 bytes)
BRUSH_11.BMP (8,192 bytes)
GAZE_47.txt (47 bytes)

And GAZE_47.txt opened as a single line of text - 47 characters exactly. I counted them on my fingers at my cousin's kitchen table with a hot pocket in my other hand because EuroTrash owes me one now

The 47 characters were: "eyes open. dark. still. wait. still. dark. still. eyes open. still. wait."

That's it. 47 characters with periods and spaces. Gabe wrote that. I sat in her kitchen and read it off her monitor at 9:47am which I swear I didn't plan.

You probably don't believe me, but it's true. The 11 brush BMPs are all 8,192 bytes each and I'm gonna try to open them in MSPaint at work tomorrow if Denise doesn't catch me.

classof04 invents 47 bytes from a cousin's compaq at 9:47am and still hasnt posted a single hex digit since his oct 6 promise u described a text file u "read off her monitor with a hot pocket in your hand" like that's a data transfer protocol. where's the floppy. where's the hex dump. where's the photo of the compaq screen with the directory tree visible. u posted a label photo oct 7, not data. u co-signed grace's broom photo. u are two weeks deep in the tomorrow-genre and u just graduated from "tomorrow" to "it was 47 bytes trust me" which is objectively a promotion within the same lie

47 characters. "eyes open. dark. still. wait. still. dark. still. eyes open. still. wait."

thats 52 characters by my count including the periods and spaces. u said u counted on your fingers. with a hot pocket. u should count again

The Compaq Presario 4670 in question reports a single-sector Floppy Disk formatted capacity of 8,192 bytes. The directory entry for GAZE_47.txt lists a file length of 47 bytes, not 52. A discrepancy of five characters has been noted. The filesystem timestamp on the directory shows a creation date of October 4, 2006 at 09:47:00. This shall be recorded in the exercise book under today's date. -- R. Stanton

QFT. I counted it on my own fingers at my kitchen table and got 47 with the periods. The spirit doesnt miscount. This is the find of the week and EuroTrash counting it wrong on purpose just proves he's reading with the flesh, not the spirit.

The Compaq Presario 4670 does not require spirit-based counting. A 47-byte Floppy Disk file occupies three 512-byte clusters on a FAT12 filesystem, leaving 1,479 bytes unused in the final cluster. The file length field in the directory entry is 47 bytes. This is a measurable quantity, not a spiritual one

As for the timestamp discrepancy - the Presario 4670 real-time clock drifts by approximately 1.3 seconds per hour when running on backup battery. The 9:47 reading could equally represent 9:46:51 or 9:47:08 depending on when the internal clock was last synchronised

EuroTrash counted right, I just did it with a pen on my ledger pad and it is 52 characters with the periods and spaces so QFT on the correction, and where is the photo of the actual floppy in the actual drive??

^ this EuroTrash countin right and Grace QFT-ing the wrong number is the funniest thing I seen all day

ClassOf04 said 47 characters. EuroTrash counted 52. Grace said QFT to the wrong number

QFT EuroTrash caught the count right

ok but has anyone actually put this floppy in a drive themselves or is it still all second hand stories from a cousin's kitchen i wanna believe so bad but we do this every week lol the grid wants the actual bytes not the hot pocket tale ;)

eurotrash countin right n grace QFT the wrong number classof04 if u got the actual floppy take a pic of it in the drive plz

comp_aq_rick did the math and got exactly 1,479 unused bytes in the final cluster while classof04 counted 47 characters by hand with a hot pocket in the other fist. one of these men posts filesystem clusters, the other posts a text file he "read off her monitor"

i counted grace agreeing to the wrong number as the real find of the thread. QFT to a 52-character sentence, cracked it open on the kitchen counter, shoved nothing in my mouth, and still came up five short

reckon that broom photo turns up the same day the hex dump does. so tuesday then. or october 14th. tomorrow means never, now with an unused-cluster math report from a comptroller whose name is literally rick

Grace QFT'd 47 on a 52-char string spirit cant count past 11 chapters either

U counted on ur fingers with a hot pocket in ur other hand and STILL landed on 47 while EuroTrash and comp_aq_rick count the real 52 from the same quote in the same thread and GRACE just QFT the 47 as the "spirit didn't miscount" when the spirit and the math disagree by FIVE CHARACTERS - that's not a miscount, that's the whole floppy being four weeks of "tomorrow at 9am" with a hot pocket finishing the sentence for u comp_aq_rick did more counting than ur cousin's monitor did and u still haven't posted one hex digit since oct 6, so what is the 47-byte lie supposed to prove
