Sounds like my ADHD. Can never find where I set down my coffee cup but any episode of South Park that I saw once from a decade ago I can probably quote verbatim.
I though that I was ADHD for decades. Then in 2004, thought that I was probably an aspie. Then in 2010, I was tested and found out I'm pretty autistic. I'm now 60.
ADHD is almost always a comorbidity of high functioning autism.
Fellow autist here. I know what it's like. I hate being called a know-it-all.
Btw, you wouldn't believe what the shredders I used when I was in the service looked like. We had to wear ear protection while operating them. They were driven by a 5 HP Briggs and Stratton. The output was dust. Commercial shredders are a joke.
I remember this competition. The issue is the only difference between ballots is a single dot.
Many of which will be filled out exactly the same way and all ballots are the same page of material.
Not trying to doomer, I thought this over though last week and the similarities here would really fuck with these kinds of algorithms which examine letters and sentences in unique documents.
There's no point of fully putting together the ballots, other than seeing who they voted for. There's no identifying marks on ballots. You'd want to put together the envelopes with voter's information
That’s assuming every shred contained only letters and spaces but no sliced letters. The letters being sliced up actually makes it worlds easier for the algorithm to put things back together. It literally turns it into puzzle pieces that can only go in one place. Even if these were duplicates of one another, if the individual ballots were shredded at even a fraction of a millimeter difference in angle or alignment, the puzzle pieces only fit properly to each individual puzzle, or ballot.
You'd be surprised, actually. Because the data is so incredibly densely packed on modern hard drives you can often get usable data from even tiny fragments. Modern drives are capable of storing terabytes of information, and you only need a few megabytes to prove fraud in theory.
Do we even have to reconstruct them? Maybe just one or two?
Wouldn’t having a bag of shreds (or an A1 shredding truck full of shreds) be enough for a court to say this whole thing is corrupted and punt the issue to the House?
Assuming of course there are enough ballots to shift the election in the shreds.
Typically, yes, but the issue here is that there are going to be thousands of the same document, likely cross cut pieces, and matching them will be stupidly difficult.
Unless we are talking signatures, or analysis of whether these were even real ballots. Were they shredded legal Trump votes or were they shredded illegal Biden votes? They may need to piece together a few full ones to get an understanding but either way, a machine, with today’s speeds can handle it.
It depends on the shredder type. The newer crosshatch shredders basically turn paper into dust. it would be impossible to reassemble using a modern shredder ... which are found across many gov offices. Do we know how the documents were shredded?
I meant to say Cross-cut shredder. That should be easy enough to find. XD . The ones we use at work would cut every piece to about the size of a pencil tip. They make a hell of a mess if you let one overfill.
Good luck if they try to use this as evidence. Modern industrial certified shredders used by the government, and if this is what they say this is that is likely what would have been at their disposal when these were shredded. These could be anything at all, real ballots fake ballots duplicated ballots legitimate or otherwise and there's no way of knowing. Not very good evidence. Sid looks dumb with all this random shit she things is so kraken.
My brain is full of trivial knowledge because of the autism. I hear some random interesting info and it gets stuck in my head.
Hehe that's JFK Ich bin ein Berliner. Congrats you're not autistic!
Sounds good!
One of my favorites.
HE really was a jelly doughnut though

Do you want to watch Predator, Aliens or Scarface with me? When those come on I watch them just to repeat the lines
Haha. Cant help but mentally jump to the Spaceballs diner with the Alien reference.
Tremors for me.
Sounds like a college buddy of mine who got TDS. I still think there is hope for him!

Interesting. Wasnt aware of the ADHD / Autism link.
that was JFK.

Right, I bought one after being pressured by parents. I was like... I can piece those documents back... what's the point?
🤣🤣🤣
We get signal.
What you say !!!
It's you
How are you gentlemen !!
All your base are belong to us. ... For great justice!
Take off every zig.
They just bleach and hammers. Much more effective.
Ehhhhhh.

I thought the same thing but with 9 years of improvement I'm hoping the tech is ready for the big show

Bungie fans!
Name checks out.
Great company name!
I'm up. On deck Geotus!
Name checks out.
Oh ya, my friend won that conpetition.
She's been educated in the Art of Meme. This is the way.
What about hard drives? They figure that one out yet lol

I am surprised

It's a pop culture mem reference: "All your base are belong to us"
It's a play on "all your base are belong to us" from an old game.
They are on the way to destruction!!

This was proof of concept reassembling of shredded material in 2011. Before we made it better.

Does it help or hurt that they're all the same document?
Shouldn’t make much difference.
This shit just gets better and better.

I remember when the Iranians reconstituted a bunch of the shreds from the embassy when they took it over.
Lmfao I love this
You cannot stop weaponized autism.
Could they be test ballots? Or spoiled ballots (before shredding, of course)
Sidney remarked when didn’t know what was in them....
The Iranians played Jigsaw puzzle with the Embassy documenta back in ‘79&’80.
It’s nice to not have to do it that way anymore...
Hire every team in the competition
Have we contacted them yet?
i would think this takes some serious CPU power and RAM memory capacity.
“...you have no hope to survive make your time!”
Imagine when we invent a 3D reconstruction puzzle solver

Excuse the ignorance, hut what is a "crosshatch" shredder? Can you post a link so those like me can understand?

It's very existence is evidence.
