@darius Jfc, and I thought hearing Nirvana in the grocery store was depressing.

@darius nooooo

@darius Hearing Bohemian Like You by the Dandy Warhols at Walmart recently did this to me too

@darius Subversive.

@darius @kissane @fediversalist-papers I’m an admin for lemmy.world, so if you need any help, let me know (:

@darius thank you -- subscribed!

@darius @kissane @fediversalist-papers embarrassingly late to this (thank you @jcalpickard for the nudge) but would be very happy to help in any way I can and will be following the outcomes with interest . This is absolutely vital work!

Right this weekend I was chatting to a friend, commenting on how they're very very slowly listening through the podcast.

Seeing this episode pop up next time I checked my feeds felt like we had performed a summoning ritual, specially given the new episode's name is a reference to the episode they're on.

@darius saw him live 15yago, classic

@darius fuck 'em UP

@darius I boosted because I have the exact same top 0

@darius

Number negative three: That time we all did that dumb thing.

@darius also does it look cool when you view an RGB JPEG as CMYK or vice versa (or is that not possible given the different strides + amounts of expected data)

@darius The most fun I had working on HTML5 (in the most tiny of roles, btw) was when people would bring stuff like this to the working group and I'd get to go dive into the archives of the internet trying to reverse engineer the decision making that led us to the state we were in. 99% of the time there was never ill intent - some implementation was left with a bunch of bad choices and the people responsible picked the one they thought would cause the least harm.

@darius I've never read the JPEG spec. Still about 18 years ago I tried to get a CMYK JPEG into a more easily usable format. I wrote up my adventures in learning about the format here:

Edited to add: lol, sigh, see above post.

@darius @kissane @DigInfFund this is AWESOME news, congratulations to you both!

@darius @ethanz @kissane @DigInfFund Excellent.

@darius @kissane @DigInfFund 🤘🤘🤘

@darius it's not passover yet but I'm stealing this to subtitle my Haggadah next year

@darius Human-machine learning in action!

@darius wow, that must be exhausting. o_o (do you interview the chatGPT people or bin them lol)

I find it intriguing and frustrating at the same time, thinking about anything "AI" related

@darius I am very ready to read that essay

@darius
Totally shooting in the dark here, but maybe by the fact that conversations behave differently it could be possible to somehow distinguish between them?

@darius I’m sure they’ll get to implementing that right after they finish implementing privacy-critical features like introductions without revealing phone numbers

@darius do other messaging services do this? Not saying Signal shouldn't implement this. I would love it. But I'm not aware of others which allow this feature either

@darius what even happened to Hometown anyways?

@darius if I do that, would I get a full head of hair again?

@darius The woke agenda. Biology is dead, and we have killed it.

@darius

That's a game I haven't seen in a long time

@darius I applied ❤️

@darius ?

@darius Has the Magic 8–Ball been queried?

@sillygwailo

@darius Right up there with "Ancient alien theorists say... maybe."

@darius

I should be able to have a third glass of wine every evening, ancient crystal suggests

@darius ring a ding ding, babey

@darius you have performed a great service to humankind.

@darius This is basically my mod stack, but this is a bit nicer. Awesome
