  • Great idea but there's a reason why people have a hard time getting the GIF train rolling

    #1 being that GIF is turning into an ancient internet image standard that is sort of kinda maybe adopted and supported ... it was supposed to be retired because it was an old format but it is surviving because of some strange attachment we all have to this format ... and any site that offers to host a GIF is often technically not really hosting a GIF but instead a WEBM masked as a GIF ... because to host an actual GIF, like the one from the top post of the highqualitygifs community ... you have to load a 47MB GIF file from an image website (the same video file for the same or better quality could be contained in a WEBM or MP4 for about 4MB). (Don't get me started on the whole WEBM / MP4 open source debate) The problems start in first creating the GIF file and to make it as high quality as possible while minimizing its file size ... GIF is not very efficient are reducing file size ... and whatever blood sacrifice, chicken entrails black magic you can conjure in order to make a great looking video file as small as possible and save it as a GIF is a dying art ... and even once you get that magical GIF, you have to find a good hosting service to carry it and display it while also not severely altering it or rerendering it in whatever format is suitable to them because every platform has their own peculiar way of hosting a GIF ... and then you run into the issue of which hosting site renders or displays a GIF is compatible with the fediverse platform you want to display it on and whether or not it will get displayed on the website browser or on a phone app (and also which app) or both or neither.

    I tried creating GIFs before and it is like pulling teeth from an epileptic shark ... and creating it is only the first step ... finding a way to have it uploaded and displayed properly on as many platforms and services as possible is akin to trying to pet a rabid hyena.

  • That's the paradox and that's why I love this thought experiment.

    There is infinity in everything and everywhere ... yet we are told that we can't cross infinity ... yet we do it all the time.

  • That was all easy to see ... the question is ... why? ... many different people across many different communities are able to do that and they probably do without us knowing.

    The question is why this individual or group are doing this now.

    And I temper that with the message that I don't want to put anyone in a corner, I'm just curious as to what is happening because I think many people are thinking the same thing. You guys do great work and I have a lot of fun here ... I just get worried when stuff like this happens because it might be a sign that other things are happening.

  • Can anyone comment on what is going on .... I watch the posts often enough over time but if I leave for a week, the whole landscape can change so dramatically. Sometimes I feel like this community is an episodic show and you have to tune in every day in order to stay in the loop .. otherwise, if you skip a day or even a week, you'll miss out on several storylines in the background that got recently introduced.

    I like everyone here but it gets confusing and even disturbing when things are happening in the background that we don't know about it.

  • I also always loved Xeno's paradox ... specifically the Dichotomy Paradox (Halving): To travel from point A to point B, you must first reach the halfway point, but before you reach that halfway point, you reach the halfway point of those two points and on and on and on into infinity ... which suggests that in order to get from any point A to any point B, you have to cross infinity ... but it's impossible to travel to infinity so the suggestion of the paradox is that you should never be able to reach any point B

  • Then we learned that if you wanted to get the right answer from people ... all you had to do was confidently post an answer, any answer, especially if it was wrong ... and so many people would jump on you so fast to tell you how stupid you were and give you the right answer.

    .... and you also had to tie an onion on your belt which was the style of the time.

  • Us poor people treat fines, charges, lawyers and court proceedings as deterrents against doing certain things ... especially if they are illegal.

    Rich people treat fines, charges, lawyers and court proceedings as the cost of doing business ... and it doesn't matter if its legal or illegal to them ... they just throw money at everything and they don't care if it's right or wrong or moral or immoral.
