If you think that was intentional you've never worked IT

They want to airdrop a court video lmao
They can't figure it out so they decide to email lmao x2
The email has a send or receive limit. They open handbrake and size the file to said size limit because no one involved has the slightest idea how to use drop box et al as would be appropriate for the entirety ofthe discovery files.
Just so I understand, you're saying the HD video was withheld by accident/technical stupidity, and you're basing that off this post?

I'm saying that both the prosecution and defense have no idea how computers work. The defense is asking for an emailed file. Before that they would have been okay with an ear drop file.

Nobody on either end has any idea how to maintain the fidelity of this file as illustrated by both sides having no clue how to request this to be placed in the cloud or get it there in the first place.

Also to be clear you're claiming malicious intent based on said post.

To be clear, when I post a tweet, it is what it is.
This seems to be a common theme.
If it was posted with so much as a letter from the english alphabet, or I guess any alphabet, maybe a picture or video, or statement screen capture....pretty much anything other than the tweet itself....maybe a red hat.....then you could at least make that claim based on something.

HandBrake can also be used only to change codec types to be compatible with other programs with extremely low or no loss. I

This is an experienced trial lawyer who uses compression/resolution programs frequently & has at least 2 installed on the computer he's using, and handbrake is visibly used & installed.

If you honestly think a trial of this magnitude is falling on inept actors, your head is so far in the sand Chinese gas explosions should be visible.

My gut feeling, much based on the character & actions of the prosecutor so far, is that he's a POS lying scumbag who has transferred thousands of videos in his life, and knows full well in his line of work the intricacies of formats & quality, as his Lamborghini kinda rides on that.

My other impression is that Kyle's defense team is 3/4 retard, as witnessed by putting their own witness on the stand completely unnecessarily, which in hindsight has created the #1 meme of 2021.

Combining these impressions I come up with this: a deliberate act.

This is not based on a tweet, but the macro view of a social situation in its totality.

Who here is a lawyer? Honest question. How often do lawyers actually transfer their own videos?

My guess is never. I would expect paralegals and other staff to do that.

Much the way that skills I had in the past have atrophied, I would expect that I lawyer is so hyper focused in their profession That they do not keep up with how to transfer files.

Most technical things are handled by tech guys or team members.
But prosecutors particularly & lawyers sift through evidence & know technicalities of all sorts very well.
It's a general question with a general answer.
But this doesn't fit in the category of nuanced or difficult, this is run of the mill.
