@mian i was distracted by teletext. looked at the terminal size for it (40x24) and then thought about multiplying that by 8 (because the old sinclair fonts were 8x8), and then going okay so now we're talking about around 899 (i don't think you can use pages 0-99 idk) "png files."

then started wondering about ways to start crunching that :blobcatgoogly:

qoi only comes up because maybe throw lizard/lz4/zstd at it afterward.

although zstd is a big library... hm
