What Hath Covid Wrought?

The year of lockdowns has given a lot of people time to work on personal projects. Here’s a dubious one:

I created a floppy disk VCR that plays full length films (like garbage) with the help of a Pi and a custom x265 codec. I call it the LimaTek Diskmaster

The entire movie “Shrek” was mashed onto a single floppy. The way this was done was to reduce frame rate to four per second and resolution to 120×96. The audio… takes a bit of a hit.
