This is not an Apple thing. Android phones use HEIC by default as well. This is a good thing. HEIC uses smaller file sizes and has fewer artifacts than JPEG.

Exactly. Android’s default image format is HEIC as well. Jpeg is outdated and needs to die already.

To be fair, Lohan is in The Parent Trap too. Unless of course you’re talking about the original from the 70s.

Who?

On my feed it’s just pictures of pets and people who I don’t know making lists of things they like. But to be fair, I just installed the app today.

I’m only partially serious. Sorry, I have a weird sense of humor that doesn’t really work well in text. Just pretend that I’m smiling and playfully punching your upper arm when you read half my comments.

That said, Umami isn’t subjective, though. It’s one of the five basic tastes. So you have to admit that not liking a food that’s loaded in it is a bit odd.

The fact that you don’t like tomatoes in of itself is proof that the problem is with your taste buds. Tomatoes are high glutamic acid (umami), and I’ve never heard of a person who didn’t like savory foods.

There’s a reason why MSG is making a comeback: because it tastes good (and because people are finally starting to figure out that its stigma is deeply-rooted in racism. It’s better for you than salt).

Honestly, waking up and seeing my balance was the only thing that kept me from ending myself the day after the election.

So glad I invested when the price was at $20k and everyone was calling it a “scam”. Good thing I didn’t listen. Bitcoin literally saved my life.

This exactly. I didn’t join Lemmy for a long time, because I would search for “Lemmy”, get confused when I see a page asking me to “pick an instance” instead of seeing a front page, and then leave because I thought that they were all independent from each other.

It wasn’t until reddit killed my favorite app that I finally decided to put in the effort to figure it out.

It really is. Great for gaming cause you can just crank the FoV to around 115-120° and have a fully-immersive experience. And say goodbye to having to lean forward to see the action.

I case you didn’t see my other comment, Here are some different angles if you’re interested.

I figured, lol. But even native speakers can be ambiguous in their phrasing. You made an extremely common mistake, so don’t feel bad.

Yeah seriously; I use my social media strictly as a mobile experience. (The desktop is for work, big purchases, and games.) This post was annoying as hell.

Just curious: why don’t you want night vision? The only time it isn’t useful is if the camera will be looking through a window, cause there’s too much glare when the ir lights are on.

CoD mobile is good… when played in an Android emulator on PC. It’s basically CoD: Greatest Hits, and it’s way better than Black Ops 6 (or any console/PC CoD, for that matter). All the best maps from the old games are there. Takes me back to the days of MW1 & 2 on the XBOX 360.

The only issues is that it takes some tweaking and the right emulator (Gameloop) to get a steady 120+ FPS, and it can take dozens of matches before game starts pairing you with other mouse and keyboard players (instead of just bots or controller/touchscreen users), but once you’ve established your rank, it becomes ton of fun cause you’re not just destroying everyone you match against. It becomes a legit challenge.

Yeah seriously; if you want more space, buy a bigger display and increase the FoV. Human eyes have a conical field of view anyway so a more square-like display will fill more of your vision field.

I have an OLED, so all I have to do is turn off the lights, set the resolution to something like 3840x1600, and now the TV is an ultrawide. I do this all the time, especially in games that don’t have an FoV setting. In the dark you can’t even see the black bars.

LMAO you’re not far off. For authenticity, I promise that I only partially staged this pic.

It’s hard to get a good shot of the entire setup due to poor lighting, but here you go. Had to do a panorama to make it all fit. The TV doesn’t look washed-out in person BTW; it’s an OLED.

Cat tax.

Edit: Sorry for the imgur link, but every time I try to upload an image to Lemmy, it breaks.

Edit 2: Some different angles for the interested. Did minimal cleanup for authenticity.
