Silly Image Compression Idea
Maybe you could elaborate… what do you mean? Both of those examples (JPEG, H264) have decompressors for viewing, right?

I think the point is that some compression algorithms are lossy (the original cannot be reproduced by decompression) and others are not.
You can’t restore a jpeg to its original image.
