Now when I put the SD card back in my laptop, it won't recognize it at all. Is this what would happen if I dd'ed the compressed image to the card, or did the card just happen to give up the ghost after I copied the ISO to it? If the former, is there a way to get it recognized so I can recover it?
I learned about this SD Memory Card Formatter on the Armbian website, where it's recommended before installing Armbian on an SD card.
You could try it:

I had to run it on Windows, because I couldn't get it to run under WINE (but I didn't try very hard either).
