If your saliva is rolling instead of dripping, please go see a doctor.

I fell for that stupid "sound on" overlay. I hope whoever did the audio over this stubs their toe constantly all day and the person who added the overlay gets a whole week.

I've used plenty of ergo keyboards and fancy layouts, but as soon as I try to use a regular keyboard I have to re-learn how to type and it really halts any productivity.

This sort of thing may be nice if you only ever use one computer or you're willing to pack around your keyboard.

Even still, I never liked ergo boards enough to think it's worth the effort, especially considering being useless on other keyboards once I'm used to ergo.

Now I just stick to a 75% or TKL. Keeps me versatile.

The difference is clear. Left I took a new screenshot and pasted it over the exact same image.

Closer look:

Here you can see what is causing the blur:

And without the compression artifacts:

However, you've just provided even more evidence to the root of the issue. People are ignorant to what decent quality looks like. The image would be even better if it had a higher resolution than 480x480.

Here's a new version at 708x708 as an example

Oh, that's nice. I guess... That must have been cut off when I originally saw the image. The issue with stuffing that information in the corner makes it less likely for someone to actually parse that information along with the main part of the infographic. Especially considering it's right next to where they gave a footnote to another company, but not for Brave. That's rather inconsistent and makes it even more disconnected from the main part.

I'd prefer if Brave itself was stuffed into the corner along with the note.

With my glasses on, which I kinda need to be a functional human being, there's little difference.

It seems you've stumbled on the root of the issue. I guess some people just can't see the blur. I don't have a particularly special phone and I've unfortunately been without my glasses all day. It's likely due more to experience and 'training', but it's easily apparent that my half-assed screenshot is significantly clearer. Less contrast, sure, but that doesn't magically remove the blur. Most likely the biggest factor is that many people just don't care, which I find beyond frustrating.

I added more blur to make fun of the 'original' post. I would hardly call it 'super clear'

Here. The original post was really easy to find and take a new screenshot.

Didn't Brendan Eich, the CEO of Brave, recently come out in support of Trump or some bullshit like that? I can't remember what it was, but it was a huge red flag.

I mean, he already had donated thousands to anti-LGBT groups for years.

Edit -
This is what I was thinking of:

While that's hilarious, it's fucking dangerous.

Skiing is an extreme sport. People die or are very seriously injured. Something as 'simple' as a broken bone is immediately a much bigger issue because you are on a mountain where you need to be evacuated carefully.

It already infuriates me when people wear white clothing or other clothing that blends in with the scenery. You're a total fucking idiot if you wear any kind of camo, especially arctic camo. You need to be seen so that people can keep their space or if you need to be evacuated.

If you're dressing up as a yeti, then you're going to be blending in and hard to be seen, then to add to that you're scaring people which can very easily cause severe injury.

People don't take this shit seriously.

 

I would greatly like to be able to filter posts that link to certain domains.

For example, I want to filter all posts that link to the gamingonlinux website, because the owner of that website sucks and I find that site to be overall useless.

 

I guess that this 50501 movement has somehow gained some recent popularity from somewhere, but the sheer volume of content, communities, and even instances seems weird.

Where did this all come from and why did it seem to come as a sudden flood?

 

Is there a way to limit the size of posts in the "full" layout? I prefer this style over the cards, but some posts are really.... really.........reaaaallly long.

 

I noticed the other day that the majority of the content on !comicstrips@lemmy.world are made by accounts that are deleted after making some posts. Most often no comments are made by these burner accounts, but sometimes they will create a new separate account to respond to comments.

Is there any real privacy benefits for this over something like having a single separate account you post only images and no text posts?

Is there a tool that facilities creating short-term accounts like this?
