Yes, every video you download or stream is actually compressed quite a lot, the bitrate just determines how much compression is applied. Higher bitrate means the file is bigger and less compression is done, while low bitrate means the video has a lot less bits to store all that data and so has to do more compression.

These aren’t browser games, but could still be fun.

I used to play Battle for Wesnoth a lot as a kid, both with my dad and by myself, and as it’s turn-based it should run fine on a raspberry pi.

OpenTTD could be fun, although it may be a little complicated depending on how old they are. It’s not very difficult in terms of challenge though, it’s more of a sandbox once you get past a certain point. There’s also sandbox options to give yourself lots of money if you didn’t want to worry about money and just build cool trains and stuff.

I used to play a lot of Supreme Commander with my dad as well, so maybe something similar like Beyond All Reason or ZeroK could work if they take an interest to that kind of game. I haven’t tried them though.

I love this meme format

I use Geddit occasionally, I don’t know if it supports voting or commenting though since I just browse.

Gamescope generally helps with alt+tab issues.

How is Backpack Hero by the way? I played the demo years ago and liked it but haven’t bought the actual game yet.

Sounds kinda like NixOS, although that’s not platform-agnostic.

There’s a Tab Discarder extension that suspends old tabs so they’re stored on the drive rather than ram.

Technically, the morning is when the sun rises and night is when the sun sets. The sun decides to set earlier and we just have to go along with having more night.

Quality shitpost

we’re reaching shit-post levels I never thought imaginable

Does that make a difference if you already have the PrivacyBadger extension?

Saved this post waiting for a random Lemming to write a seven paragraph essay about Roman engineering.

Ah yeah it shows up as a user not a community. I think if you search the URL of one of their posts you can see the community it’s posted in and subscribe to that.

If you copy the URL of one of their posts and paste it into the search bar of your Lemmy instance (you might need to refresh a couple times, and make sure the filter is set to all), then you should be able to view what community it’s posted in on your Lemmy instance and subscribe to it as normal. Then all new posts should automatically sync to your Lemmy instance and show up as a post. I subscribed to a Peertube channel this way and it worked.

Edit: changed from searching for user to searching for post and subscribing to it’s community.

People on Lemmy are having their own version of Reddit’s r/place event. You can see it and participate on https://canvas.toast.ooo

You can search for communities on https://lemmyverse.net/communities

The only thing I don’t like about webp is it can either be lossy or lossless, with png and jpg you know if it’s lossless or not.
