WHY WOULD YOU CUT THE AUDIO!!! IT’S SO MUCH BETTER!!! It’s honestly so dumb and unfunny without it. Sorry for the reddit link

Slow ,

Lemmy’s web instances do not display real videos. Also some applications, like Jerboa, do not display videos. Because of this, you have to convert the video to the outdated animated picture format - gif.

This format appears in all applications and web instances, but does not contain audio.

I think if we all flood the developers with requests for video support in Lemmy, things might change.

I thought gifs had support for audio these days? Or is that just a reddit thing?

example ,

those aren’t actually gifs.
they’re frequently webms.

various people don’t care or don’t know the difference between media formats though, so they’ll just call anything remotely gif-like a gif.

It doesn’t help that the shorthand for moving picture sequence is gif. I remember when internet pictures were commonly called jpegs no matter the format. I don’t know what else people should use

Slow ,

The old gif format doesn’t support audio. Anything called gif with audio are mp4 video files. On the imgur site, you may have seen files with the extension gifv, but…

Quote : “When you view a GIFV file on a website such as Imgur, you’re viewing a video file, which would normally have the file extension .mp4 or .webm. The server is configured to serve the video using the extension “.gifv,” but the video’s file format is unchanged.”

Even in a quiet community as small as lemmy the incels will come out to hate on anything an attractive woman does. This is actually pretty funny and she seems like fun. Get your “upvoted because boobs” negativity out of here. Believe it or not pretty women can be capable of quality content as well.

What is this hot take? Am I missing details? I haven’t seen any incel hate here. Is it buried in the comments or an OP issue?

I miss that sub 😔.

Not sure she could cover up her boobs anymore if she tried

0x4E4F ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah, but it’s still obvious she’s far from flat.

fluxion ,

Ok?

yeather ,

Whoever called this funny was lying to you.

dependencyinjection ,

I thought it was quite amusing. Almost as though comedy is subjective.

fluxion ,

How dare you lie to me

Unless there’s a problem on my end, the audio was stripped from this version, unfortunately. It’s much better with sound. The window squeaks match a song.

yeather ,

Seems like it, no audio on my end either

VicksVaporBBQrub ,

Ditto. I too am seeing a gif and a silent webm. I will guess it is similar to that one with a mom and a squeaky oven door playing Usher’s “Yeah”.

It defaults to muted audio, so hit the speaker icon in the lower right.

Here in Canada we got rid of our pennies years ago. For good reason.

echodot ,

There’s loads of currency denominations we could get rid of. We could probably just do away with the whole idea of fractions of a currency unit and just make everything 1 pound / euro / dollar

In the past a penny used to get you quite a lot, you might be able to have a meal out for a penny but now it’s literally worthless you need at least 50 of them to buy anything reasonable. No one bothers.

The UK used to have half pennies. But then the UK also used to have 144 pennies in 1 pound.

I gather this is imperial system related.

And/or inbred royals being in charge back then related, I bet…

It’s the square of a dozen, 12²=144.

Well, Newton was English 🤷…

Viking_Hippie ,

True. Boy George too. Also: Vinnie Jones.

Socsa ,

12 is arguably a better arithmetic base than 10 since it divides nicely by 2, 3, 4 and 6 instead of just 2 and 5.

MrNobody ,

If only we had a way to have numbers smaller than 1.

Socsa ,

Right, having more whole, proper fractions to work with can also be simpler (and more precise) than truncating decimals and dealing with the implications of significant figures. I just don’t understand why people are so hostile to this as a basic idea. Base 12 has benefits, just like base ten does.

sukhmel ,

I wish some countries would go this way and use 12-based as a default, while others would use 8-based because it’s closer to computers, and others will continue using 10-based.

And then no-one will denote the system used because it’s the default, how’s that you don’t understand. Oh what a beautiful world we’d be living in 🥰

Socsa ,

The point is that there are benefits to several different arithmetic bases for different purposes and forming some kind of dogma around any of them is weird.

0x4E4F ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Well, there isn’t a perfect one… better just agree on using one, whichever that might be.

Socsa ,

Agree, so we will all just use hexadecimal since it is a convenient way to represent both fixed point and floating point arithmetic.

0x4E4F ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Sure, I’m down with that if everyone else is.

Ah, ASCII runs deep in this one I see 🫡.

sukhmel ,

There is no dogma, when doing maths you’re free to use anything even as esoteric as Fibonacci base. The problem is when this becomes widespread but not everywhere.

If you’re for using it “for different purposes” I can’t even understand the point of your original comment, why preach?

Socsa ,

I am definitely not the one being preachy about a particular base. I am the one advocating flexibility over dogma.

All I did was point out that 12 is easier to divide cleanly than ten, and this very simple fact has pissed many people off for some reason.

0x4E4F ,
@0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yes, I do agree with that. It just takes time getting used to it.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

Yup. Keep the quarter and cut everything else.

MadBob ,

144? It was 240. 12 pence to a shilling, 20 shillings to a pound sterling. www.ecosia.org/search?q=predecimalisation pound
