25GB of (I'm guessing) LZMA compressed text. That'll expand to a bit bigger than 25GB.

Deduplication. They zeroed out all the "your question is not relevant because we say so" answers.

If you still have a link to a deleted question/answer, archive.org is your friend.

It's a shame that the SO community is constantly killing interesting and useful questions, just because "they don't match their format".

Interesting, thanks. I was really just making a joke: the questions I google up are somehow quite often flagged for one reason or another, which makes SO's uncanny SEO effectiveness kind of irritating.

I agree that is baffling the way interesting questions are always getting quashed.

I know that this was a joke, but in all seriousness, you should better bookmark any question you find useful/interesting.

For now.... Just wait until you uncompress it!
