  Ooh, Alpha channel. Forgot of that. That is a nice one. Love me some alpha channel.

  So, what would you say is best? If someone wanted to save an image, which format would you recommend? I usually go with PNG. JPG if I want bad quality on purpose (drag quality slider to minimum for extra compression)

  lossless recompression of existing JPEG Uh… how does it make a JPEG lossless? Or is it lossless in that it makes a JXL out of a JPEG without affecting the original JPEG quality (i.e. no further loss beyond JPEG’s)?

  Being able to turn JPEGs into JXLs and JXLs back to JPEGs is cool, though

  What’s with the AVIF thing? Yet another I am unfamiliar with (all I know about image formats is JPG = worse quality, PNG = better quality, GIF = animated (and something WebP. Idk much about that one either))

  Also, in my research, I’ve found something about the distinction between lossless JXL vs lossy JXL. Seems like you wouldn’t be able to tell if the image is lossy or lossless just from it being a JXL

  Why are they trying to make it happen, and why it no work? Is JXL better than PNG? Maybe I need to do some research to better learn the difference

  Interestingly, I downloaded GNOME’s pride month wallpaper to see what it looked like, and the files were JXL. Never seen them in the wild before that

  Now if anyone don’t mind explaining, PNG vs JXL?

  Ayo, never seen no one express opinions like these, like mine, out in the wild! They do call themselves America, despite being only part of the continent. And their uncreative name. Big brain move they had there. Like a Monty Python sketch. I could see it to the tune of the witch scene

  “What are countries made of?” “Land?” “People.” “…Cows.” “A church.” … “States!” “That’s right! And where are these states?”

  I like to call them 'Muricans sometimes, to differentiate 'Murica (US) and the real America, the much bigger and, thanks to other countries, generally better one.

  The thing about the initialism I find weird is there’s plenty of variation, and people can almost sorta pick and choose, build their own initialism. Sure, some are used more than others, but no apparent standard per se. So which ones get included in the initialism, vs. which ones are hidden behind the + or behind the Q, or perhaps neither the + or the Q gets used. Kinda like the flag. You have the classic, popular one. The colours have their meaning, but not specific to certain “letters” (groups of people). But then you have some with black and brown, for people of colour. Some add trans colours. Some have that purple with ring thing I can’t remember if it’s non-binary or what. Nothing against these variations, though I wonder the need, when the originals were not specific or exclusive. The original colours weren’t about identity, far as I know. Now they make updates with identity-based meaning. If I am someone with less knowledge or something, and I’m gonna make use of an initialism or flag, which one would I choose? Would I just say LGBT and use the traditional six-colour flag? Would that be exclusive? Do I add the QIA+? Do I need black, brown, pink, blue on the flag? Shit, I didn’t add the Pi symbol. Is that a flag variant? Sure seen a flag with Pi on it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a tragedeigh⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting that Q essntially fills up for every other character in the initialism, incluing the + which essenially acts as an etc. to said initialism. One can pretty much choose and pick which letters to use when crafting their usage of an initialism, and which letters to hide in the +. One could call it the LBT+ community, or the L+, or T+. Or B+. Or just call it + for maximum efficiency. Or you could just call it the Q community, as Q encompasses everything else. What some otherwise call the Queer community

  Idk, I feel like they just spin one way a few times. I reckon they also tend to make pigeon sounds in such state. Not sure about being pissed. I think they just horny. They wanna fuck (or jump atop the other pigeon, it seems). I am no pigeon expert, though. Just things I’ve noticed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RIP Thomas⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve noticed pigeons in recent times. You sometimes see one mofo chasing another, and the other keeps running away like it being chased by some creep. Then, once the second one stops and the original gets near them, the original mofo starts spinning in place, tryina rizz 'em up. Usually leads nowhere, though I once spotted a successful pigeon. Said pigeon then jumped atop the other pigeon. A blink-and-you’ll-miss thing, so quick before they left. It’s something I now notice quite often, having noticed this interesting pattern.

  It’s clearly telling that the study is looking at men with regards to their possession of a child or an infant of some kind, rather than regarding wether they take part in some sort of commited marital relationship or partnership
