Ok, I'm impressed with how well chawan renders this CSS (I think?) table.

#LossyPNG

Figured out how to add windowshade (f.squeeze) and minimize (f.iconify) buttons to #ctwm on #NetBSD.

Fun stuff!

LeftTitleButton           ":xpm:dot"      = f.menu "titleops"
#RightTitleButton          ":xpm:resize"   = f.resize
RightTitleButton          ":xpm:bar"      = f.squeeze
RightTitleButton          ":xpm:iconify"  = f.iconify
RightTitleButton          ":xpm:cross"    = f.delete

Oh dear God, please stop the madness already. 🤣

#anglicization was just out of control!

This makes me even angrier than Yakov -> "James" 🤦‍♂️

P.S., I honestly would have accepted "John House," but "John Goose" is just flipping egregious, already 😄

I more or less consider AI-generated/assisted FOSS to be "proprietary lite," and my attitude towards proprietary software is that I use it iff there is really no other alternative.

I just recently yeeted an AI-enhanced FOSS image editor from my phone, and just accepted that I would:

• Have fewer and clunkier editing tools using the more legacy and truly FOSS* image gallery apps
• Have to drop into termux to do some conversions that there's no truly FOSS app for so far (like #AVIF and doing "#LossyPNG" conversions)

* Yes, I am absolutely implying that "AI"-written code is not truly #FOSS.

@clouderst

@wyatt @kawa @gelatin You can't tell from the extension or MIME type whether someone ran a recording through LossyWAV before FLAC encoding. Likewise PNG with pngquant or other palette dithering tools.

#LossyPNG: original 40-color image reduced to 23 colors for a reduction down to 65% of original size, only losing some of the colors in stats(8) display.

Yeah. ;) (text after hashtags to force clients to fully display them, because [hashtags are poetry], dadgummit! ;)

P.S. Bitmapped fonts are SOOOO CLEAAAAAN. Dude. XD

I guess I'd be less annoyed if a reboot-to-apply-changes cycle didn't mean that I'd have to enter my LUKS password twice.

#Linux #LossyPNG

I didn't realize #Windows10 had shadows until my #LossyPNG conversion made it more obvious.

I really must confess, after all of the insane #UI stuff we've been seeing lately, I really don't hate this (UI, that is).

#LossyPNG

lol we've reached peak webdev, gents. ;)

#LossyPNG

Well that's unexpected. 😄

#Texas #Spring #LossyPNG 32 colors

@wyatt @kawa There have been a few attempts at "lossy PNG". One method, anticipated by the standard, involves reducing colors in a continuous-tone image to store it in indexed mode. The other involves adjusting pixels of 24-bit images to be better predicted by PNG's line filter, giving more zero bytes for DEFLATE to use

Gotta say, for $20/mo, this is pretty flipping incredible!

It's really something that my e-reader has better and more usable scrollbars than most desktop interfaces (Windows, MacOS, and Gnome). :/

The scrollbar is thin, but the grabbable region is large (kind of like the default in KDE), and easy to manipulate directly with your finger. This is actually better than #iOS' implementation, and many #Android apps.

#Kobo #UI #UIDesign #LossyPNG

If anyone's curious why I'm always doing the little #LossyPNG dance, it's because you can get some crazy good compression sacrificing color depth, instead of using a traditional lossy algorithm which gives you good compression by sacrificing detail:

No, KWrite is a plain text editor, and is basically just Kate-lite.

@golemwire

lol, actually it's a #LossyPNG and a LossyWebP.

I'd use #AVIF more on #fedi, but #Mastodon doesn't support it. (boo, hiss!)
