A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
But your camera phone can already copy text. If it's a tattoo about the first paper you wrote, whatever you make needs to work for 60+ years. Text is always going to be valid, who knows when QR codes will become obsolete. 60 years ago you'd be getting a tattoo of a punch card, and that would be mostly meaningless today.
My camera phone can’t copy text :(
(Original iPhone SE, so not recent, but not ancient or a flip phone or anything)
I was just addressing the fact that QR Codes were only for URLs. As for whether they'll be around in 60 years... Barcodes have proved to be fairly resilient.
