  • Why do you prefer wasting everyone's bandwidth with the shitty 30 year old JPEG image format when every browser and every actively developed image viewer/editor supports WebP?

    Even lossless WebP is a bit better than PNG, but compared to JPEG, there's just no question.

  • Now you're just making things up.

  • I think the “controversy” is just tribalism. I've never once witnessed a case of any of the negative adjectives thrown at the Rust community. They've always taken exceedingly fair and good-faith approaches to discussing any critique of the language.

    Their snark is reserved for the weird “anti-woke” crowd that hates Rust for some reason.

  • I just use nushell’s builtins instead of wrangling with IFS and bash idiosyncrasies. It's been years since I've corrupted data by parsing text wrong.

    But even if someone doesn't want that: apart from using it in legacy scripts, grep is just a strictly less useful ripgrep these days, no?

  • A homeless person freezing to death on the winter streets in the US is as poor as a homeless person starving in Lebanon. Who cares if one of them has a banged-up smartphone. They're both dying.

  • I'm not living there, don't assume things. And why do you think obesity means wealth? The trash food that makes their people fat and unhealthy is very much an expression of poverty. The wealthy there east healthy food.

  • What good does a handful of billionaires’ wealth do the poor in the US?

  • Mu. Your question reveals that you didn't read the article. Try doing that, then you know which failed assumption led to your question making no sense.

  • Are you kidding? Everything on my computer that does image formats can do Webp

  • Go with the times, PNG is old as dirt now. Everything supports Webp!

    /edit: the downvotes are hilarious. People have no problem moving on from mp3 to FLAC or so, but somehow they form an emotional attachment to PNG?

  • I'd love that. On Reddit, I used to see dozens of upvoted comments by people who only read and believed the headline, all appearing before the first comment written by someone who had read the actual article.

  • What would that be for? It's hard to search the internet for.

    I think I remember from my Ubuntu days that I used it to switch JREs? Arch has something for that!

  • I chose the Lemmy devs’ instance thinking it would get bug fixes fastest. Had I known that this leads to constant discrimination, I wouldn't have, jeez.

  • Hahaha yeah! And not to forget lemmygrad.

    Also I dared suggest that Mozilla isn't the devil and Firefox is still kinda the only browser preventing a full chromium monopoly on awfulsystems. Banned.

  • That or both wrong and an asshole. I was trying to be charitable.

  • I think you're confused. It's really easy to use. You have to learn 3–4 command line flags instead of subcommands, but that's all that separates it from others in usage patterns.

  • Oder durchrotieren damit die gleichmäßig abbrennen

  • I really like rolling release. So much better to deal with updates one-by-one than in a giant batch every half year or so.

  • As said: installing the LTS kernel also works, I think.

    And you wouldn't use Arch for servers, you want something stable (as in “rarely changing”) there.
