PNG is also raster. SVG is vector which is what you might be thinking of. PNG is lossless, whereas JPEG is lossy, which is the main difference

They NEEED to pump the copilot usage numbers to appease shareholders. It doesn’t matter if all copilot uses are accidental and unwilling, cause it’ll look great in the next quaterly report

Which means that the patents are void to start with. But they can still be used to bankrupt a smaller company with court battles regarless. The fact that patents with obvious prior art get granted so easily is a wild.

Lemmy is really weird about these kinds of things. The hive has decided your personal feelings towards game design must be punished I guess.

If wages rise in conjunction, I don’t see any issue. The theory is that slight inflation encourages putting money to use, either by consuming it or saving in a bank account (where the bank can lend it out) or investing it etc. That’s why some inflation is generally considered desirable.

Can’t believe I don’t want to watch advertisements all day

I stopped watching when he started covert instruments and immediately realized what every single future video would be like. I was right…
