This comic makes it look like the collar is a hoop with momentum that’s steered with a whip-like leash… Nope, the real thing is sadder

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Phone charges should plug into the top of the phone not the bottom.English
21·17 hours agoNot happening. Surgically implanted coils would either transfer too little power or overheat. The pocket idea is less far from viable.
Yes but it’s ruined. Thanks, fossil fuel industry
Yup, nőnap means Women’s Day.
Also, fun use of the lack of copyright. Just cut up a newspaper, nobody’s gonna sue in socialist Hungary

As long as you don’t use Adobe software. Wacom partnered with Adobe to feature trademarked Photoshop tool icons for the tap zones, which gary420 scraped right off just like the Windows key symbol on his keyboard.
Except tap zones because gary420 didn’t like them. You can configure tap zones − in a nice GUI, even − if you use the fingrr touchpad driver instead, but you lose hover sensing and pressure sensitivity.
Linux: “Company? Update driver? The driver was written by gary420 and will work forever. No installation, just plug it in. You also get pressure sensitivity and pen buttons if you install this compatibility layer for libinput 6.9 or earlier. By the way, you can remap buttons if you understand gary420’s weird config file format, there’s a readme in the repo…”

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Not once in my 40-odd years of life have I used a WYSIWYG editor that, once committed/submitted/saved, actually *gave me what I saw*English
3·3 days agoWith default settings, I do. Every document I remember. The only difference is semitransparent header and footer in the GUI. Maybe you’ve enabled the fullscreen/reader view that usually breaks everything, or it’s default on web or mobile.
I achieved high proficiency with Office 2013 and honestly, it’s not fully WYSIWYG, you have to do things like toggle field codes for some advanced stuff but 99.9 % of work done by Word users is in WYSIWYG mode. As for what-you-see-is-what-you-want? Well, hard no.

33·3 days agoYup, drunkards in a tram are annoying but they almost never kill people and cause tens of thousands in damage.
FYI: “Ball” refers to the spherical, 2-axis articulated part of the hose (not seen in the pic). It’s not for cleaning ball pits or after formal parties.

Of all the classics you could have reposted, why this?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why is it that when the graphics driver freaks out in your browser when watching a video, the page always turns this specific shade of green?English
1·4 days agoMy calculations say that
YCbCr(0, 0, 0), which is presumably the default state of the video framebuffer, will becomeRGB(0, 73, 0)after ITU-R BT.609 colorspace conversion and gamma correction. Not exact but very close, the video might just be using a slightly different color profile from the standard. Or maybe I made a miscalculation.

2·4 days agoOh, turns out it really is YCbCr, I should have done the conversion the other way around! The gamuts of both spaces are different so doing the raw matrix multiplication on
YCbCr(0, 0, 0)results inRGB(-179.2, 134.9, -225.9). This is obviously outside valid subpixel values in RGB24 (integers 0-255) so the values get set toRGB(0, 135, 0). There will be gamma correction applied, for example the ITU-R BT.601’s gamma correction will change it toRGB(0, 74, 0)- not quite OP’s measured value but very close, and we don’t know the video’s color profile or hardware gamma settings (yes, GPUs can apply various corrections to HW-decoded video before sending it to the screenbuffer that OP saved by screenshotting) so there is some margin of error.
