Now if anyone don't mind explaining, PNG vs JXL?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (8 children)

JXL is badly supported but it does offer lossless encoding in a more flexible and much more efficient way than png does

Basically jxl could theoretically replace png, jpg, and also exr.

Animated PNG has been trying to be an extension to the PNG spec for 20+ years.

the payload was reportedly embedded in an animated image of the attacker repeatedly flicking his left testicle

I bet it was a single flick and he ran it on a loop.

I still don't have an HDR display. Hopefully some VR headset in the near future will support it.

Fracturing support for a legacy format makes so much more sense than actually supporting a modern format like JXL, right?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago

If this actually stands a chance of taking off, I'll honestly take what I can get to normalise HDR images
