I'm not complaining about the company doing advertising, I'm complaining about Slashdot presenting it without irony.

Look, I use HEIC, but JPEG-XL is just better.

* Royalty-free
* Lossless transcoding of legacy JPEGs to immediately reduce their sizes by ~20% (fast enough that you can have webservers do it in realtime)
* Better fine detail / high frequency data representation for the same bitrate. HEIC was designed for video and simply is not as good at stills.
* Faster decoding
* MUCH faster compression
* True progressive decoding - and not old-school blocky progressive decoding, but using a smart algorithm that restores coarse detail (particularly focusing on parts of the image that the eyes immediately focus on) first, then progressively adding in finer detail that the eyes take more time to notice later.
* Vastly better lossless compression
* Better colour depth and native HDR (up to 32 bit per channel)
* Up to 1B x 1B pixel images (again, useful for scientific and engineering applications), with efficient loading (don't have to load and decode the whole 1B x 1B image at full resolution to view it)
* Arbitrary colour spaces - you can even use it for scientific hyperspectral imaging. You can include e.g. alpha, depth maps, thermal data, selection masks, etc etc.

It's just a better format for stills. It's annoying that it's taken this long to get support to take off (because it takes ages for most people to update their browsers), but I'm really glad that it's starting to.

And then what, she withholds hex?

Firefox doesn't preview webp images in the file dialog on Linux either. So fucking annoying. What year is it?

I prefer the majority of canned or virtual male voices I hear on the phone to the majority of female ones today. I think this is because they care about what women think about them these days and don't care what men think, because we are less likely to complain to them about the voices. They used to choose soft female voices, now they are choosing harder ones. I am not looking for confrontation from phone operators, so this doesn't seem positive to me. I'm seeking service, not an argument.

It's complicated. Where does society end and the workplace begin?

You can't find Wikipedia? Learn to Internet, noob

And by extension, so do the owners of this site for providing a safe haven for these cowards

This is stupid racist dickhead bullshit because ICE has detained at least 500 citizens so far, and every person who was "deported" to a country they didn't come from was trafficked by ICE. Fuck your support for racism in pursuit of your support of a child rapist traitor. It also makes you a traitor.

As if you would know anything about feelings

Correction: ... Why are ISRAELI Jews etc etc

Netanyahu is currently doing what every expert says is a genocide in Gaza. Hamas was founded in response to a massacre in a mosque done by a Jewish "settler" assault-colonialist.

What is the death toll on each side?
Why are Jews protesting for the right to rape Palestinian hostages?

You also don't want to see security updates? It's simply not safe to use an old browser.

Something true about Hamas like it was founded in response to the Ibrahimi mosque massacre, or that Netanyahu has bragged repeatedly to the international news media about making sure they get funded as part of his strategy on Gaza?

Private equity firms are capitalism in pure form, as they are capital controlling the means of production, which is capitalism's definition.

Private equity forms are a negative for humanity, but so is uncontrolled capitalism, so that checks out.
