I'm just trying to figure out how smol I need to make a re-encode of Hackers to share with all my fedi friends (and piss off united artists)

@r000t @sjw @lanodan Well, here's a torrent: https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=12180542 .

I've grabbed it and added it to two IPFS nodes, so to answer your question in the most ass way possible, it can be 46 bytes if your fedi friends use IPFS: QmQ97L6KE4bSVzdjJZFMqPtuJnJ3Jz8KHkwAHD5511UUYN , and 550 bytes if they prefer a magnet link. (Hey, @l0wk3y , want another copy of Hackers?)

But if you're gonna attach it and you want it to propagate, since it's got a runtime of 6300 seconds, you're looking at about 780B/s to encode. Unfortunately, ffmpeg complains if I try to make it do numbers small enough to fit the whole movie inside 8MB, but here's 20 minutes of it in crammed into about 3.5MB. You could fit the whole movie into a brief thread.

@p @l0wk3y @r000t @sjw@neckbeard.xyz @lanodan Here is the movie in 38MB so all Mastodon instances should take it

@matrix
You are a gentlemen and a scholar.

Also looks surprisingly good for a 100 minute movie in 38MB

@r000t @p @l0wk3y @sjw@neckbeard.xyz @lanodan You can make video look better on low bitrates by lowering the framerate and resolution. Also the audio is quite cut down to save space.
