Another day, another album. Today’s pick is Joe Jackson’s “Night And Day” (1982) https://music.apple.com/de/album/night-and-day/1442356255?l=en
I need to determine whether the account that just followed me is doing a bit or not, so I'm gonna restate an opinion that I haven't shared recently:
Cryptocurrency is bad and extremely stupid for many technological, economic, and social reasons that I, by and large, understand better than its advocates do.
Reminder that if you frequently put ISO images in USB sticks to boot from them, Ventoy will make your life much easier (just copy the ISOs to the file system in the USB, no need to overwrite it every time). https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html
I can now see a lot of the image compression idiosyncrasies persist over the BPSK stream, like long chunks of a particular byte, which could make decoding problematic. It would probably be best to zip the image first before encoding it as base64.
Encoding images to tape using SSTV is problematic because speed is neither constant or precise. So I’m now trying to store an image encoded as base64 over BPSK1000. We’ll see what happens.
