Correction, still there. Just hard to find.

!behold:
204 repeats of "/" at the start
15 repeats of "Array Authorized..._"
104 repeats of "reset..." with 10 ellipses (...) and 2 periods (.) each
None of which are multiples of 7.
!end transmit proc

The only word I can make out is "Brave"

I suggest someone find a way to slow down the video and see what is said.

There's another image of a star sky you can also see. There is a total of 5 pressable butons on the thing.

1 = video
2= .txt
2= images

The second image has a different name when I click on it, but when I actually save it, it is just the same as the other "Slide_Ref*"

well when i visited the page it took me to a link with a stange floating robot thing (from the halo universe). I could rotate it and if i clicked on specific points on it it let me save some weird stuff. On one point there came a short video on AR's last transmission.

There should be 2 "fast-text" screens.
THIS IS MY FINAL ENTRY, AND I AM LEFT WITH ONE HOPE
THAT ONE DAY, SOMEONE, ANYONE IS AROUND TO WITNESS THIS WARNING
{//}
KNOW THAT A THOUSAND OTHER PLANS WERE TRIED AND FAILED
{//}
KNOW THAT ENERGETIC AND TENACIOUS AS LIFE IS
IT HAS AN ANTITHESIS JUST AS POWERFUL
IT IS THAT THING THAT WE MUST OBLITERATE
Anyone found the first one?

It's done. By my hands. The pyrrhic solution is ignited. All I have left is the quiet of
space to lull me to sleep. I will dream of you.
"Pyrrhic solution" relates back to King Pyrrhus of Epirus who defeated the romans at an extremely heavy toll to his own armies, which is pretty fitting.
