I've been trying to reach you about your car's extended warranty

So, here's a fuck up from earlier this year:

A family friend came over one day. I was out by my car, having returned from a visit to the shops. I hadn't seen him in years, and he asks how I was. I responded with "Surviving", before saying something about my degree progress and stuff.

He goes a bit quiet and awkward, eventually making his way inside while I finished what I was doing.

I walked inside and walked past my parents talking to him. Then I remembered something. His partner was diagnosed with a brain tumour that had metastasised from breast cancer. I also remembered that a few days ago, my parents went to visit his partner in the palliative care unit because she lost the fight. I realised then that he clearly came around to tell my parents that she had passed away. She fucking died and I responded with "Surviving".

Yeah, JPEG uses a convolution to effectively average the values. I think there are other ways, though I cannot remember the context or file format, which use some interesting concepts from linear algebra. I recall a professor telling me about using singular value decomposition in the process. But that's a different topic.

I didn't know WEBP also supports lossy compression. That makes it even more flexible.

Not really.

JPEG is a lossy compression format. It loses information to reduce filesize.

PNG is a lossless compressed format. It serves as a well-rounded format for general purpose image compression without the loss of information. The downside is the image can be much large in file size.

SVG is a vector graphic, as you seem to be aware. These files have what is effectively infinite resolution, but can be significantly larger in filesize, depending on the circumstances.

WEBP is a more efficient lossless compression format. It is analogous to PNG, but smaller file size. Additionally, as you stated, it can also be used for animated graphics,like GIF formats.

I think WEBP is a decent format and is significantly more modern than PNG. That being said, however, the main issue is the lack of modern integration and adaptation for newer image formats.

Personally, I use whatever. The only exception is when 8 need to store images on github in a repository. Then, I will typically convert to webp and optimise the image to reduce the file size as much as possible.

That's so gay

Why the fuck was this the comment that got me

Not to support the Taliban but women are scary

I hate BNPY so much... I deleted my after pay account, which means I can no long use their services unless I get in contact with support to reopen my account. I did it to explicitly make it near impossible for me to be tempted. It worked. There were times I felt regret, but it was 100% the smartest move.

Then, PayPal introduced pay in 4... All my hard work went right down the drain. I can't afford this shit but fuck it's hard when you're clinically depressed.
