  • Yes, you might, if you’re caught by an unreasonable cop. Its a very general law that relies on a fictional amount of “common sense” .

    The 3 criminals that got hit with that justice system got away with kidnapping a person and underfeeding a trapped animal before they were finally caught red-handed stealing sausages and cake. They spent only a few days in a minimum security prison, got free soap and a haircut and food and support, before they were freed and given jobs after proving they had changed for the better.

    Wish it was this easy in our world. But we are trying to be as close to it as is sensible.






  • Impersonal social media like reddit, lemmy, twitter, and mastodon is nice sometimes. We can have a conversation without the conventions, responsibilities, and limitations that comes with real life socializing.

    I can decide for myself how long I want to think of a reply. And a reply isn’t even expected, I can choose not to respond if something makes me uncomfortable to talk about. Nor do I have to wait my turn to converse, or be spoken over. I dont have to remember faces or names. Nor remember peoples background or recent events or drama they’ve been involved in. Theres no judgment on age, looks, ability, or gender (unless I disclose it of course). And its possible to fact check stuff while discussing, no need to wait until after to realize someone is trying to misinform.

    Imho, all this turns toxic when companies involve “recommended feeds” like they often do.




  • My image viewer of choice will never implement it, they replied when I suggested, because the spec isn’t standardized. And because they consider themselves photography viewer/editor, not an image viewer. Understandable.

    The webp is a format used exclusively for web graphics with no practical use in digital photography, moreover, the technical documentation is not really standardized so it makes it really challenging to ensure 100% support. Mainly for those reasons, the webp is not supported in ZPS X

    Im using it because it got the best tag manager/tag browser, not for the photo features.
