Zdá se mi, že Bluesky nikoho nezajímá a teď ještě odchází Dorsey. Trochu tomu přestávám věřit. https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/5/24149543/jack-dorsey-gone-bluesky-board

Ať děláte, co děláte, některý věci nejdou spravit a některý lidi nejdou uspokojit. Úžasný video nejen kvůli zvíříátkám ;) zmiňovaná dcera je Erykah Badu, ale to asi všichni ví... Celkově velká paráda z žánru, který mě jinak moc nezajímá - ale kdykoli to člověk slyší, má tendenci si pobrukovat refrén (třeba jako já dnes v Decathlonu) 😎

Whoever says icon themes work has not worked on icon themes for 25 years.

@jimmac KDE icons do. :trollface:

I have to say, I thought by MS-DOS 4.0 there'd be more C in the codebase, but it's almost all ASM.

@Lobrien Wait for 6.22. It’s all MS BASIC :) (just kidding)

The problem with HDR video is not that iPhones record them or that social networks allow them. The problem is how iOS renders UI elements on top of HDR video when screen brightness is low.

vancura,
@vancura@mastodon.design avatar

@antons HDR content has many problems, especially photos (AVIF, JPEG-XL, or JPEGs with gainmaps). It’s incredible when it works (and when there’s no UI over or around), but it’s so bleeding edge. I had already lost hope.

vancura,
@vancura@mastodon.design avatar

@kccqzy @antons You can very effectively trim all more advanced JPEG chunks with any JPEG optimizer, like https://optimage.app, and I am sure basically any operation with currently stable ImageMagick trims them too.

vancura,
@vancura@mastodon.design avatar

@kccqzy @antons I mean, there is plenty of development in the ImageMagick camp regarding gainmaps. See https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick/issues/6377

It's supposed to be a dang kitchen appliance funnel?!

My bank actually put perspective on this dumb filtering icon and I never considered what it might be.

vancura,

@konjak Thank you very much :) Now the usual filter glyph reminds me of the final third of Pencilface: https://youtu.be/4MjTb5A68VA?si=6dinyarIMQWRMEfs

Regarding the found Pentium 1 PC: the HDD light was turning on for a few seconds, but I was getting no video out, so having no POST card (already ordered it), I resorted to good old blind RAM removal, and hey, we got issues, but we got video!

vancura,
@vancura@mastodon.design avatar

@ozzelot Hmm, I always hoped the EnergyStar logo used poor man’s compression to encode the same elements only once. As you can see, the blank spaces are encoded multiple times.

vancura,
@vancura@mastodon.design avatar

@ozzelot Yeah, I think they decided it's not worth the effort. There are many unused characters in high ASCII :)

@thkaspar This is so sweet. It reminds me of a time (~ 1995) when I spent a year thinking and then finally writing a transparency sprite draw method that used Animator Pro palette as a look-up-table. It literally took me a year to figure out, and I used it only once. Good times.

@vancura sir! We've been working on a little survey and we're planning on sending it out to Patrons soon. I was wondering if you would be up for giving a little feedback and also testing that I built the survey correctly.

Nope, everyone's just waiting in this meeting and not speaking

@JenMsft Same. But then there’s: (weird silence) – “Vaclav, what do you think?” – (sweating) – “Sorry, what have you discussed? The cat is meowing here too much today.”
