gollark: Apparently it operates on rows and columns in this, which is probably how partly rotating the images helps.
gollark: That would probably be helpful in getting around it.
gollark: I really should learn exactly how the "discrete cosine transform" it apparently works on works.
gollark: Besides, I can always rotate images by 45 degrees or fuzz them beyond recognizability to get around it.
gollark: So it can't detect 45 degree rotations. Interesting.
