Legge, in Like a glove.

This looks a lot like Indianapolis. The bridges like this downtown are awful, but also how did they manage to get the truck so stuck??

chetradley, (edited )

You guessed it. Intersection of College and Washington: 39.7668, -86.1457.

jaybone,

Why are the numbers different?

chetradley,

Not sure, perhaps they re-measured or leveled the area at some point. This is definitely the spot though.

donslaught,

It kind of looks like the road may have been resurfaced. The curbs at the bottom of the pillars look a little taller in the second picture.

bowser1035,

I recognized it instantly also! I’ve never seen a fuck up that bad before, but I’ve seen plenty of trucks have to make a 3-point turn after getting stuck under that bridge.

From the looks of it it’s fairly cold and the road might be icy, so I’m guessing they spun out and lost control of the truck.

ShortFuse, in Remember when everything was so blocky?

PNG was built to replace GIF and TIFF.

The Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format was designed to replace the older and simpler GIF format and, to some extent, the much more complex TIFF format.

And it stands to this day, with the exception of animation:

One GIF feature that PNG does not try to reproduce is multiple-image support, especially animations; PNG was and is intended to be a single-image format only.

Though APNG came later, and we even have MP4.

www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngintro.html

Bonus:

No detail was too small for consideration in the authors’ quest for a near-perfect image format; yea, verily, even the acronym and pronunciation were major topics of discussion. The reason, of course, is the GIF format; some pronounce it with a soft G like giraffe, some with a hard G like gift, and no one really knows what they’re talking about. (For the record, the soft G is correct; it is how the author of the format pronounces it.)

“PNG” is always spelled* “PNG” (or “Portable Network Graphics”) and always pronounced “ping” in English, not “pinj” or “pee en gee” or any other multi-syllabic disaster. (For non-English speakers, the three-letter pronunciation is fine, however.)

Funfact: APNG is now stadardized as part of third edition of PNG spec

frezik,

Odd they bring up TIFF. That one is more like a container format that can hold many different types of images.

If they wanted me to pronounce it ping they should’ve spelled it ping.

postmateDumbass, (edited )

It took too long to relay that.

Portable Internet/Network Graphics?

Vent,

Never heard anyone pronounce it ping, lol! P-N-G is a better pronunciation anyway. Less ambiguous, there’s already something called ping that is super common in computing.

with the exception of animation.

Funny you should mention that… From the GIF89 specification, Appendix D:

Animation - The Graphics Interchange Format is not intended as a platform for animation, even though it can be done in a limited way.

We used gif before png

frezik, (edited )

GIF doesn’t have transparency (Edit: more accurately, ranges of transparency). I thought that was the joke.

You made me understand the joke.

Smoogs, in Age range

I thought this was the default setting until the user goes in to edit preferences. It was doing that to me until I went in to stop it from flinging my profile at literally everyone.

TheObviousSolution, in EDIT: I THINK I STAND CORRECTED

This is wrong. Having an infinite amount of something is like dividing by zero - you can’t. What you can have is something approach an infinite amount, and when it does, you can compare the rate of approach to infinity, which is what matters.

Smoogs, in Remember when everything was so blocky?

They should have put superman after the plane. “It’s a bird…it’s a plane…it’s… its” was literally things we said in the 1990s.

i mean, just shave until the growth kicks in sufficently that you get a proper 5’o clock shadow and from there it’s fine to let it grow

if you can’t reach that level of growth… probably just keep shaving and go gnomecore

fouloleron, in I guess it's the pretty colors?

Why is Elmo standing in for Cookie Monster?

renzev, (edited )

Huh? Wasn’t this always how this template looked like? I found it by ducking (is that what we call it?) “elmo cocaine meme template”, meanwhile “coockie monster cocaine meme template” returns nothing relevant…

EDIT: Are you making a joke about cookies that I am too dumb to understand?

Emerald,

I think it’s because the chrome and chromium icons are circles, like cookies. You also put a “bite mark” in the chrome icon, as if bit off like a cookie.

fouloleron,

I’ve never seen the meme before, my bad. I thought it was supposed to be cookie monster munching, not Elmo snorting!

renzev,

Oh haha no worries. I myself have never watched a ful episode of whatever show these characters are from (Sesame street? was that what it was called?) so I thought you were referencing some lore I didn’t know haha

Mikesomething, in Like a glove.

This is fort Meyers, FL.

Here on vacation and just drove by these guy’s shop

chetradley,

This is Indianapolis. Here is the news story about it: youtu.be/87OurbTvw8c?si=a2qPoRxSMYRl3Zj5

Mamertine,

2 men and a truck?

They’re franchises. They’re everywhere.

ours,

Impressive for just 2 dudes and a single truck. They get around I guess.

jaybone,

They are like the Santa Claus of movers.

Mikesomething,

Ahh, my mistake. I assumed from the look of the place/truck that it was literally two men and a truck

Mamertine,

It’s all good. Based on the name it’s a common thing. For a long time, I assumed they were local to my area. Then I saw them in another city when traveling.

Oderus, in Hip Creeps

You can also add smoking and vaping.

21Cabbage, in Like a glove.

That’s a pretty impressive fuckup if we’re being honest.

CluckN, in this meme is brought to you by: viewers like you

At least they label it, the worst is when 20 minutes into the video they mention being in constant contact with the creator.

lud,

That isn’t something the creator adds. It’s done by the community.

Risk, in You don't have to do this!!

y knot Firefox?

Nariom,

ye when’s the day ppl start making fun of chrome too for all the crap they’re pulling

prettybunnys,

We started when chrome was released and haven’t stopped.

redditor_chatter44,

Firefox better

Like, ages ago? Google has been called out on their shady shit tons of times, it just doesn’t have much of an effect because Chrome isn’t as objectively crap as IE was. It works and it’s familiar, for most people that’s all that really matters. They have “NotHiNg to HidE” after all.

People who have nothing to hide don’t use locks in their houses

Use this information carefully

AVincentInSpace,

If you were reading the comment I’m replying to and thinking to yourself “well, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear”, let me ask you something.

When you go to the bathroom, do you close the door?

Do you think we should have security cameras in every public bathroom stall watching every man, woman, and child who does their business just to make sure nobody’s doing drugs in there? (Criminalization of addiction is an entirely separate issue, but you get the point.)

No? You’re worried about perverts watching the security tape?

Now you understand why we want online privacy.
