Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

So they use the MP4 container like a zip file and this is revolutionary? I mean, it's a nice stunt, but the developer seems pretty serious about it. What am I misunderstanding?
Kinda but more like a db (ie you can search it) so instead of spinning a db for your ai you could have that store in that type of container …
So like indexed text files? I don't understand what's the benefit of encoding text into videos.
but there's sqlite for that. how is this more?
