A loss comic, from “The Loss” (TNG s4e10), about a woman coming to terms with the loss of her husband, in lossy compression.
An upgraded comment meme.
I hate you 😆
I develop a Lemmy client and have been re-working the renderers on this release. I daily drive my “dev” version to suss out bugs and such. There was a bug a couple days ago where it kept fetching 256 px thumbnails even when requesting the full size image.
For a moment there, I thought that bug was back and just about slammed my laptop shut and poured a drink.
Well, have a drink on me instead. Didn’t mean to worry you. Salúd.
¡Salud! 🥂
:.|:;Oh I was wondering what the pixels were for. I was at a loss to explain it
What you did there, I see it.
I came here to make that joke, but you beat me to it.
So I think I lost.
Sorry for your loss

Serious question, can a downsize of an image be considered a lossy compression method?
I think in a way it’s like quantization which is lossy compression
Probably not. To be perfectly frank, I used Pixel It to muddle the original image. Works well in instances like this or if trying to create 8-bit style images.
For some reason your response didn’t trigger a notification. I wonder why. This is the first time that I know of when I didn’t get one.
There’s been some odd glitches of late.
But is it?
There’s a lot of reasons I was amused by the crossover episode making LD unambiguously canon for the haters, but one of my favorites is “fuck you, moopsy is canon too”.
I’m one of those holdouts saying Disco and SNW aren’t canon (because they break so much of it) but it didn’t occur to me that, if they are then it means LD must be canonical too.
You may have changed my mind.
They should get Frakes back to do an in-universe version of his Beyond Belief show.
