AAAAAAAA, WHY DOES #NAPS2 have two different hidden quality settings?

Even if you select the checkbox for "Maximum quality (large files)" under "Image Quality" in the Advanced menu in the Profile it still compresses them heavily when you click "Save Images", cause it has it's own hidden slider.

You need to press the small arrow to the left of it and select "Image Settings" and drag the "Jpeg Quality" slider from 75 up to 100%.

We reach Rabaul after 4 days of navigation over the Bismarck Sea. I am now docked at the Kute shipping quay for how many days I don't know yet. The good thing is that there's a new company covering the last stretch of my journey, from Rabaul to Buka, Bougainville. I'll just have to wait for the time the ship is ready to depart. In the meantime, I watch at slave-like work of a group of men downloading copra from a cargo ship and uploading it on trucks delivering it on local markets. They tell me they get the equivalent of €2 for every ton of copra downloaded, to be divided among a team of 6. Slavery I said.

More to watch here: https://youtube.com/shorts/Srl5RPy6gE0?feature=share 95/

I slow travel mainly to reduce my carbon footprint (by 10 times according to available estimates: see https://ourworldindata.org/travel-carbon-footprint ) but also to experience travel as most people in this world do.

Day 75-78: Conditions are not exactly first class on the vessel taking me from Lae to Rabaul: There's no couchette and no shower room. However, people leave me some space to roll out my 2-inch mattress on the floor (I'm the only one onboard except for crew members enjoying this luxury), so I get some rest. All other passengers sleep crammed on the floor or on the seats. For washing we rely on the "bucket system" in small cabin rooms that get constantly flooded with (rather filthy) water. Surely I'm a white fly on board and everyone wants to speak with me. In spite of this and the breathtaking view of the sunset, I get on with my work...

Day 75-78: I don't think I'll ever see as much as beauty as in these breath-taking sunsets over the Bismarck Sea. They fall gently like leaves caressed by an autumn breeze.

China's campaign of international diplomatic pressure against Taiwan is now targetting Taiwanese representative offices

This will have significant impacts in the South Pacific where Taiwan relies on offices in PNG and Fiji to maintain relations with the eight Pacific island countries that do not formally recognise Taiwan

Day 72: In Papua you can never be sure about schedules and timing until the ship has actually taken off. After an obligatory 3 hour delay, I am eventually about to embark for the previous to last stage of my journey: 4 days of navigation over a 1,100km route: Lae-Umboi-Gloucester-Kimbe-Rabaul. I still don't know how to manage the last stretch from Rabaul to Buka....

I can't believe that after 70 days of travel I am just about to complete the 28,000km dividing Italy from the Solomons without flying! It will count nothing in terms of overall greenhouse emissions, but for me, now, it's everytghing I can do to for this wonderful fragile planet. 91/

There are no bus schedules, no tickets, and buses depart when they are full. I am getting to the main departing point in Madang when it's already late in the morning - but I really wanted to talk about locals about coastal erosion in the city. Fortunately, I still find a place for me on probably the last bus, and two seats are allocated to my bulky luggage. Off we go for the last stop in Papua island before hopefully embarking for the Bismarck archipelago.

It takes 6 hours to cover 212km on "Ramu Sugars" road. It was even slower 3 yrs ago with unpaved track

The PNG government's decision to close Taiwan's representative office signals a further contraction in Taiwan's diplomatic space. It indicates that China is no longer just targeting Taiwan's small number of diplomatic allies, but Taiwan's much larger network of representative offices

We’re going to need some legal word smithing on the order of the #GPL and the #CreativeCommons licenses to make a false statement an offence in as many ways and jurisdictions as possible (any ideas, #lawFedi folks?), some #EXIF and #ID3v2 and #PNG and comparable metadata tags for carrying legal statements attesting to non-use of media synthesis (mislabelled as #genAI by GPT vendors and NPU/TPU manufacturers), some apps to interview and educate the user about media provenance and add those tags iff applicable, and some #Fediverse and web browser add-ons to filter out media lacking them unless verifiably produced before a given date.

Times of India highlights 30 years of PNG:
"This suggests that many technological breakthroughs build on existing systems. The format was not a universal replacement for all other forms of graphic files, but the combination of openness, precision and clarity of the PNG format made it a trustworthy standard that developers could use everywhere."

Day 65: After a smooth 9-hour boat ride over the Sepik river, we made it to Sisimagung, Northern Papua. This is the 65th day of my no-fly trip from Italy to the Solomon islands. The coastline is beautiful, what you could describe as paradise on earth. Coconut trees gently bend over sandy beaches and the sound of the waves quietly resound among villagers busy with their fishing nets or cooking earths. It is then all the more upsetting that this beauty is slowly but incessantly being destroyed by sea level rise. This is what Jeffery Bae, a local resident, tells me in the few hours I have here before getting on a truck to Madang. It seems impossible that a sea so quiet can become the agent of destruction, but this is precisely what happens, as Jeffery shows traditional houses made with sago and bamboo leaves having been dismantled by the latest storm surges.
"We will have to relocate", tells me Jeffrey with an empty, "but we don't know where, because right behind our village there's a swamp".
Once more, I hear the same story: no help from national, regional governments, and neither from international organisations.
How many million stories are similar to Jeffrey's, and I wouldn't hear were it not for my slow travel.

A split-surface over-under photograph by Renee Capozzola captures a traditional outrigger canoe floating above a thriving coral reef. In the top half, a person wearing a bright, colorful sarong sits aboard the wooden canoe on calm, sunlit water, with dense green mangrove forests lining the shore under a bright blue sky.

Lottie — новый стандарт векторной анимации

В области графических форматов в последнее время произошло много интересных событий. Вышла новая спецификация PNG с официальным утверждением формата анимированной графики APNG, хотя его поддержка в браузерах реализована уже довольно давно. В то же время за последние годы набрал большую популярность Lottie — новый формат векторной анимации, легковесная альтернатива анимированным GIF и APNG. Он основан на JSON и содержит текстовые описания элементов объектов и движений, с поддержкой растровых картинок, динамических скриптов и интерактивных элементов.

Today I improved my #Python script to convert #png files in a folder to #gif, using a graphic interface with #PySimpleGUI (I have a CLI version too I have recently converted from #Pillow to #imageio) and during class I made a png to #mp4 version!

png -> mp4 (GUI) https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/pngs_to_mp4_gui.py
png -> gif (GUI)
https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/make-gif.py
png -> gif (CLI) https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/pngs_to_gif.py

if you want a silly (not optimized at all) #PNG(s) to #GIF script:

CLI https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/pngs_to_gif.py

GUI (depends on #PySimpleGUI) https://github.com/villares/sketch-a-day/blob/main/admin_scripts/pngs_to_gif_gui.py

#SVG to #png using #svglib and #reportlab so that I can show SVG in a #PySimpleGUI interface!
