  • Honestly, i’m not entirely sure what Flatpaks are all about. Not sure I could explain them. But I use them. I’ve used apt. I’ve even used Pacman and Yay in Manjaro for a few years. Now, I also Flatpak (no longer on Manjaro, though. I no longer boot to a blank screen every 6 months or so! Very nice!)



  • 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












  • 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.
