I lack the words, so I have used interpretive meming instead.

Christ what resolution was that image? 8k?! Why was it 6MB? I got to watch that load in like dial up, 1 line at a time. I finished the punchline before an elbow even appeared on my screen

Because its a virus now you are infected. If you want to save your computer you have to throw it in the lake

Will any lake do? Or is there a specific lake that IT professionals prefer?

@Krauerking for those of us who don't click on image links, what is it an image of?

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The window shopping boyfriend and upset girlfriend but the US being excited for the new hotness that is Israel instead of the slow burn Ukraine.

All in a resolution of that image that allows me to count the fricking beard hairs on the guy and see the loose thread at his collar. It's like they went and got the original from Shutterstock to make the meme.

@Krauerking thanks! I don't think I've ever seen that thing in anything other than low res, this is pretty funny.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I wouldn't think it came in 2500x1667 pixels mostly cause I don't think that's a normal image size

[–] livus@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

@Krauerking I'm dying. @Flyberius are you the original photographer or something? This is kind of intriguing.

There really should be an option to hide these images by default.

[–] livus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Can't remember if it was an option I clicked but I don't see them, just the url.
