WebP supports lossless compression too, and is more efficient than PNG and JPEG. You can also set the image quality level in Lemmy's server config, I have it set to 95% for example. I believe converting images to WebP (and compressing them slightly or losslessly) should be the default, and if anyone wants to upload the original file, they can go for a 3rd party image host and upload it (whether PNG, SVG, whatever) there. Or, if you're sharing a webcomic for example, you can take the link to the original file from its website and paste it into Lemmy directly, thereby saving space on your instance.

Slightly unrelated, but I just wish JXL was more widely supported, it's the best image format out there, the only thing holding it back is software refusing to support it. Both Chromium and Firefox have JXL support behind a flag in their advanced settings.

It's not challenging, but why should everyone convert the images themselves when, if the admin desires, it could be done in an automated way?

The server should be the one dealing with this imo, I have my server set up so that it converts all images to webp.

How does this compare to Meshcore and Meshtastic?

Why don't you consider links advertisements? And attributing only in this way leads to people downloading the images and sharing them carelessly, without crediting the artist.

Attributions are not ads. I like knowing who made which art.

Why do you even do this shit, you get massive backlash every time.

I got this in the Threema channel today (just like last year): https://three.ma/slang

It's not a particularly difficult easter egg hunt this time, I figured it out in like 5 mins, but I'm not going to spoil it :P

And a fully open dataset

If you use Navidrome, you can connect it to LB.

Playing Minecraft is a way to achieve immortality?

I like the idea, but 5$/mo for 300 searches isn't worth it, and 10$/mo isn't worth it for unlimited searches either, personally.

Similarly, Nazi programmers say "ZIP FILE!!!"

The others are sis admins

Technically, it says he's in the ~ directory, which would usually be /home/god, but even in there there aren't usually any directories/files with a dot.

At least bash doesn't seem to match it...

 bash

    
gregor@raspberrypi:~ $ ls
bridge  navidrome  seed  traefik
gregor@raspberrypi:~ $ ls *.*
ls: cannot access '*.*': No such file or directory
gregor@raspberrypi:~ $ cat *.*
cat: '*.*': No such file or directory

I know, but the general attitude of politicians towards science hasn't changed much, which is why I said "this kind" and not "these".

This kind of people are making laws about technology, something they don't understand at all, just like π.

Maybe he wanted to remove only files with a dot in the name
