Infinitely zoomable world of pixels Anonymous 10/26/2021 (Tue) 18:21:39 No. 5914 [Reply]

Is this idea possible, /t/echnerds? You would have a publically accessible canvas like https://ourworldofpixels.com/ or https://pxls.space/, but you could zoom out as far as you want (given memory limitations) and zoom in as far as you want (given memory limitations). Would this be possible with infinite precision arithmetic / bignums? I feel like I'm just being dumb here but I want to put the idea out there and ask just in case.

>>5933 no, svg are just drawing instructions, theres no pixel data, the pixel array gets calculated on render thats what makes it scalable, you can have subpixel preservation this way, you can zoom out until everything is merged into a single pixel and still be able to zoom back in without a difference this file has 1/2 pixel width and height, if you scale it you will get the exact same image as before even though it should technically only be a single pixel if it was a raster file put this in css and expand the thumbnail to see the image zoomed .imgExpanded, video { animation: zoom 25s ease alternate infinite; } @keyframes zoom { 0% { transform: scale(1.0); } 100% { transform: scale(441.0); } }

>>5935 I know that. That's why I put 'pixelated' in 'scare quotes'. Without infinite precision as you zoom in there will be gaps between least significant figures where you can't put any lines. That being said, I assume numbers in SVGs already have infinite precision and size due to being written in text (you can write as many digits as you want before and after the decimal point) unless there is for some reason some arbitrary limitation that I don't know about. However, decimal in ASCII is an inefficient format and the canvas area can become indefinitely large and complex so maybe it's worth creating a new binary SVG, possibly with EBML or something, that uses the entire 8 bits of each byte, or as much as you can get.

Looking for chart of all imageboard software Anonymous 10/07/2021 (Thu) 20:33:14 No. 5626 [Reply]

Hello friends and family! I am looking for an image of a diagram/chart of all the imageboard software. It was originally posted on 8chan's tech board in 2019: http://web.archive.org/web/20190622041930/https://8ch.net/tech/res/1059807.html Sadly archive.org has blacklisted the media files domain for 8chan and it's not on archive.today either.

What is going to get you the job are your projects on your resume, they show you can get things done.

Does it need a working battery to show a display? I could have sworn I've unplugged it before without issues. Before I spend money on replacement parts, what should I try troubleshooting? (I'd prefer not to spend too much in case there's more wrong with it than I realize. I just want to use it as a cheap 90s/XP-era gaming machine because it's available.)

Is there anything modern even close to what an old IBM Thinkpad was in terms of durability? Or is everything just cheap chinkshit nowadays? I got one years back used as a gift, but eventually I had to upgrade to something newer for work. I didn't realize how great it was until every laptop I've had since die on me within a couple years. I formatted it with some flavor of Ubuntu and gave it to my grandma at least, so it didn't go to complete waste, but I still wish I could have used it longer. I tried a Lenovo Thinkpad once, but it didn't feel the same.

Richard Matthew Stallman Anonymous 05/08/2021 (Sat) 14:23:46 No. 4011 [Reply]

Richard Stallman taught us that: 1. In America "you can get arrested without a reason." 2. Russian spy "Edward Snowden is a Great Hero." 3. HAMAS terrorists are the good guys, while Israel is a fascist state. 4. "The US military" are the "violent white supremacists." "The US owes reparations to Iraq for the damage it has done." 5. "The US military is poisoning [low-income] communities across the US with toxic chemicals." 6. It is wrong that "the US government has persecuted Julian Assange for a decade for Wikileaks' journalism." 7. "Publishing of leaked secret [American] information" is journalism, and not espionage or sabotage. 8. Terrorist Iranian dictatorship, trying to make a nuclear bomb, are the good guys, and America should ally with it. 9. "US today — plutocracy, extractivism and dooH niboR." 10. "US government doesn't try to operate fair taxation." 11. American "democracy is a sham." 12. "We must defeat [American] plutocracy." 13 "War is not the way to deal with" the totalitarian regimes. 14. Pre-teen children can "appear entirely willing." 15. Writing software unpaid makes you "free as in freedom." 16. There is nothing wrong with the Red Star GNU/Linux being used in North Korea as the totalitarian surveillance tool tracking any non approved communication. GNU GPL completely approves such use, because it gives their government users "freedom."

Do you have a good method of organizing files and programs on your computer? Is there an efficient way to do it, or is it all just up to personal preference? I feel like I've got far too many random images saved over the years to feasibly go through and put in this folder or that, and I've also got literal thousands of bookmarks that are just getting in the way of me efficiently doing things. Would it be better just to can them all and start fresh? How would I keep things organized from that point on?
