Presumeably it could be a bunch of small files, rather than 1 file |
| 11 |
bigger than 1 gigabyte (as an aside, why is it for my version of find, |
| 12 |
+1G is not a valid size? The only units that it admits [according to |
| 13 |
the man page] are b[lock], c[haracter=byte], w[ord], and k[ilo]]), |
| 14 |
which might explain why your find command doesn't see it. |

Have you looked at the output of |
| 17 |
du --max-depth 1 | sort -g |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
It should show you which are your abnormally large directories... |

Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand, |

"lollipop" is the longest word typed with your right hand; given |
| 28 |
that you don't type in Dvorak. |
