thank you for giving me a great torture idea for all my IT adjacent friends, from now on i’ll be pronouncing all binary as if it were one number (up until i can’t be bothered anymore)

honestly good for them, this tells me they realised how useless the “1.x.x” format is since they do not plan on ever having it tick up to 2.x.x, and changed it to something that allows them to convey more meaningful information

with the current team of devs who’s ethos seems to be to never touch the already well established gameplay features there will never be a minecraft 2.0

the entire philosophy of development for that game would need to change for that to happen

my tech aura comes and goes

i once tried to log into a microsoft account for 10 minutes, and it only let me in once i took the laptop to my coworker and tried to show how it wasn’t working

and then one of my other coworkers tried to restart a camera multiple times, and it only worked when i pressed the button

it doesn’t know what it was doing, it just writes something vaguely plausible

am i AI?

i mean, we have the solutions to a lot of problems already

traffic? public trains

hunger? just like, feed people

global warming? reduce fossil fuel usage and stop poisoning the oceans

homeless? literally so many empty homes, put people in them???

and we’ve had many smart people create step by step plans for all of these!

the thing is… i guess rich people want a solution that doesn’t involve them paying for something that’s good not just for them but for others? so all those plans fail at step 1 - have empathy

photoshop & davinci resolve

i am perfectly aware of that, but if you only want to view the .webp file outside of your browser, you don’t need to convert it properly, just rename the extansion

.webp has virtually no support when it comes to software/apps that can edit images, it’s always either a “file format not supported”, or absolutely no reaction or acknowledgement that you tried doing something

also if you only view them and don’t care about editing them you can straight up rename the *.webp to *.jpg

it’ll still open as a jpg outside of your browser, but it apps that you’d use for image editing still won’t want it

nowhere in the post did they apply for the misery olympics, don’t draft them in by force. people can have small problems and complain about them in a lighthearted way

humans, sometimes

i don’t think a wheel with 20 forks in it would work very well

oop sorry, seems like i’m from the opposite side of the world and my phrasing after waking up could also have used some work

by “there” i meant reddit in that comment

to this i’d like to add that when i browse there sometimes i keep seeing people saying things like “this is reddit libs are everywhere” “this is reddit even slight conservatism will make people call for a death sentence” or “this is reddit you can’t say anything non-progressive” and those are getting many upvotes, whilst anything said that’d paint you as anywhere left of centre will get you downvoted.

it seems like the conservatives have taken over and yet they still feel like they’re surrounded

hmm, just because non-english subreddits are small doesn’t really tell us much here. Non-English speaking monolinguals are used to smaller communities (let’s ignore China and India for the sake of this thought experiment) simply because the number of the speakers of their language is smaller. So a subreddit of a smaller size wouldn’t be particularly surprising here

those folks often use the same social media platforms within their own linguistic bubbles. Not always, of course, you gave examples of websites used by specific language speakers, but i’m just pointing out how this might not be a universal fact for every language

android does it well, if you want “developer” mode that let’s you have better control over your system you have to do some funny IT rituals you can only access by 1. knowing they exist 2. googling how to do it

wow that’s so shitty holy heck. i hope none of those websites are essential, or if they are that you find a free and working VNP

why? does reddit just assume any and all traffic from your country is VPN traffic?

an overt plug for the fediverse will be removed though, reddit is actively censoring anyone saying positive things about it
