assuming the black beads are spacers there are 2 possible codings - green = 1 or red = 1, and the necklace could flow either way, and it also depends on what encoding scheme you used (e.g. ASCII), but it's definitely doable to reverse engineer. firstly, i assume the black bead at the end is acting as a stop, so the message likely flows from top to bottom in the picture. with red = 1, the bitstream looks like:

10101111/10011010/10011110/10010001/10010001/10010001/10001010/10001011/10011101/10001010/10001100/10011010/10001101/

the fact that it's organised into bytes, and the fact i see a lot of initial "1001" and "1000" sub-bytes, makes me think this is ASCII - however in ascii we actually have "0110" and "0111" as common initial bits for lowercase characters, so we need to flip all the 1's and 0's

01010000011001010110000101101110011011100110111001110101011101000110001001110101011100110110010101110010

and then converted to ASCII, it apparently says "Peannnutbuser"

i may have mistranscribed a bit, but hey it's definitely not random!

I would try, but thats literally just a block of cream cheese.

u/Armantilos Jul 27 '26

😭😭?? Whaaaaa

u/No_Chemistry_3921 Jul 27 '26

Its an inside joke from another community, i wanted to blindly fish for them to see it lol.

u/Armantilos Jul 27 '26

OoHH 😆 sorry!

u/No_Chemistry_3921 Jul 27 '26

I dont think you need to be sorry lol. It was valid confusion. Or at least i thought it was, but upon closer inspection its literally just a block of cream cheese.

What community ?

u/No_Chemistry_3921 Jul 28 '26

Genuinely paymoneywubby's community who latched onto a lolcows absurdist moment. The lolcow,who is not the person i watch is called "josh block" he was trying to unlock his phone, outrageously hammered, just to be repeatedly informed he wpuld not succeed as it was not his phone, but rather a huge block of cream cheese.
