Might be interesting to print this on business cards and distribute at conventions or something like that.

"Please run this binary from my business card". I guess it's easier than leaving USB drives in the parking lot...

Too bad virtually no one will flash it using a Windows device.

I was looking for the snake in the QR code itself (and found it!) before reading the article

Here's another Snake game that can fit in a QR code, this one written in C#: https://twitter.com/MStrehovsky/status/1214955696556515331

(It doesn't need a .NET runtime; it's fully self-contained and runs on Windows as a native app.)

QR code’s support vCards as well. I use QR code that will pop up and ask you to add me to your contacts.

All the data is stored in the QR code.

Cool, so all the 1k demos/intros from Assembly (https://archive.assembly.org/2019/1k-intro) could also be distributed via QR code... the 4k intros unfortunately not. Maybe it's time for a new category ;)

I nearly started looking for it - thinking of the SIRDS images that were popular year ago - until I noticed the position markers. It's almost like we're trained in memes...
