I’m wondering if some systems can’t handle or misread the picture filename. It is quite large.

64 characters coincides to an encryption of 2^6, six “layers” of security. Can’t recall the encryption label...something hexabit.

Wait...hex is six so this filename would correspond to hexabit encryption?
Man, it’s been a while....

I dunno. I have different experiences depending on devices, settings, and software.

I variously use smartphone, desktop, three different tablets, Linux, android, silk, brave, microsoft, chrome, firefox, etc. etc. (hey! I like gadgets!). I keep most of my stuff pretty locked down, but still get different results on different machines.

That character string appears to be hexadecimal. (0-9,a-f, making 16 unique values, 2^4)

Each individual character therefore represents 4 bits of data.

64 characters, therefore, implies it represents 256 bits of data, 2^256.

8 bits of data = a byte, 16 bits of data=word, 32 bits of data =double word. 256 bits=8 double words, or values between 0 and 1.15792e77.
