You should be able to open it directly in your browser if you put data:image/jpeg;base64, in front of it.
Alternatively you can use echo 'the output you posted' | base64 -d > image.jpg
Alternatively, you can paste it to this website: https://base64-to-image.com/
Also thanks for the app recommendation. Works awesomely and is also open-source.

This was printed on HP printer. But a 20 year old one. Only gives me warning about low ink but still let's me print.
It also doesn't work with Windows past Windows 7, but I don't use Windows anyway.

Well, binaryEye in Android is giving me this:

Yep, that's what it is. JPG in base64.

You can also check out this: https://gitlab.com/Atharok/BarcodeScanner . The app has a better Material 3 based UI too with more features.

I'm sure if I scan it it will be an image of Rick Astley.
Edit: It's just "07844730"

Try it again and you'll get a different number. Your scanner probably thinks there's EAN code in it.

It's still the same

I put the original QR code in description. It scans in Google Lens when I put it there as image, although it takes it a few seconds.

Never give it up, and never let it down.

Not sure if that QR code just doesn't work, or if the quality is too low for my camera to pick up.
Either way, probably shouldn't be QR code scanning a random joke code on Lemmy Shitpost.

Can we just assume it’s Loss?
user224@lemmy.sdf.org · 2 pts · 3y
Unfortunately, the only thing that scans it is the Scandit Demo app. I also tried
zbarimgand this app that generated it.At least that's the case when scanning from camera. The original QR code image I put in description scans.

I can't get this to decode with Google Lens or a few different online decoders.

Binary eye works, base you still need to base64 decode the jpg to :::spoiler see a glorious picture of Rick Astley :::
user224@lemmy.sdf.org · 5 pts · 3y
A glorious picture that's been compressed down to 1.9kB to fit into QR code.
:::spoiler also
spoilers don't work like that here
