    What you’re describing is just compressing in a ZIP file. Zip files are lossless, you have nothing to worry about. When you throw a JPG in a zip file, and then extract it later, you’ll get the exact identical JPG back.

    You only have to worry about jpg’s lossy compression if you’re using a photo editor like Photoshop, GIMP, etc. “Compressing” it in a zip changes nothing. Moving or copying it doesn’t lose quality either.

    file.pizza if this is a one off or rare occurrence. If you’re doing this regularly, there are better options, provided the person at the “source” computer is competent. A significant question is whether or not these computers are on the same network. I would recommend running a HTTP server if you don’t care about privacy, HTTPS if you do. There’s no need to buy an SSL certificate, self-signed is more than adequate for this purpose.

    It’s more complicated to set up, but the advantage is that when you’re done you can send the receiving party a link they can open in any web browser, no hassle.

    I’d highly recommend playing Dance Dance Revolution, if you’re at all interested. Very fun way to burn lots of calories. There’s an open source clone called StepMania. If you really end up enjoying it, you’re going to want to invest in some high quality metal dance pads. Worth every penny though, in my opinion.

    By the way, I’m 400 pounds. I know your struggle. I’ve lost well over 100 pounds playing StepMania before. Unfortunately I’ve had some bad events put me in a bad depression, which caused me to gain it back.

    Pretty horrible. Wife wants a divorce and is unwilling to try and fix things. Barely communicates with me at all.

    I met my stepson when he was 9 months old. He’s 11 now. I’m the only father he knows. I’m devastated, because not only am I losing my wife, but I’m also losing my son, as I have no legal right to him. I’m estranged from the rest of my family, so the world is looking pretty cold and lonely from here.
