@retr0id So, I was primed by the toot, but after checking the first and last ~6 that I can read in one go, i rely on the sort of shape of the rest. At the 2258 v s 2259 spot, the shapes differ enough that I checked closer.

But I thought the whole point of shas256sum was to use it computationally, like with sha256 -c or something, it's not meant to be easily human comparable.
