People put clothes on to go to bed?

[–] Sc00ter@lemm.ee 13 points 4 days ago

I do. Extras even

Between my wife who steals blankets, my two little kids who inevitably sneak into bed, and my 2 60+ pound dogs who also sneak into bed, i get cold if im not in warm clothes because im like 6th of the list for the blankets.

Other than that, i sleep like a rock and dont know any of those things happened until i wake up

You are all unlucky I choose to put them on before leaving the house.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That seems like a lot of work for very little gain.

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 days ago

Yeah, people freak out when I wave it all about, though. A lot to process for most people of ordinary experience.

In the winter my home can go down into the 40F-50F range with all available heating running on full. Even with electric blankets its better to layer up with thermal underwear, hats, coats, three layers of pants, and gloves.

My mom says she can't stand a bunch of fabric on her which I guess is fair. I personally can't stand freezing to death while I sleep myself so its a fair trade.

Who the hell is washing pillowcases and t-shirts in the same load of laundry

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The fuck it's a pillowcase, is it like a box for pillows

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

they're a type of eagle candy.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 2 points 3 days ago

i see what you did där

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

If a pillow wore pants, would it be like this?

"T-shirts are amazing - your body goes into one hole and goes out of three."

[–] bonsai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 days ago

I always accidentally fold my white t shirts away with my white pillowcases bc they're the same size, shape, and color when they're folded. I never notice until I'm getting ready for work and can't find any of my undershirts 😭

Still to overqualified to be handling secrets in the Trump cabinet

(This is a joke at the blurry image posted by OP by exaggerating the blur)

I'll never understand why this sort of thing is okay with people. Especially here on Lemmy.

It takes minimal effort to find a better copy. If you think it takes longer, then that's because you never do it and you just need to do it a few times. With this small step we can make Lemmy significantly better than the rest of the Internet.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Huh? OP must've edited it then because for me the OP is super clear and yours is very foggy. Using Voyager app on lemm.ee, maybe your frontend or instance is doing something?

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 0 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

I added more blur to make fun of the 'original' post. I would hardly call it 'super clear'

Here. The original post was really easy to find and take a new screenshot.

If I take my glasses off, then yours is clearer because it's the same text fit into a higher resolution image

With my glasses on, which I kinda need to be a functional human being, there's little difference. I think the higher contrast on OP's image might be doing a lot of heavy lifting in making it as readable as a higher resolution image with less contrast.

Here's my attempt at best of both worlds:

I think I need a font with slightly better clarity if I'm taking screenshots for people with bad vision though

It seems you've stumbled on the root of the issue. I guess some people just can't see the blur. I don't have a particularly special phone and I've unfortunately been without my glasses all day. It's likely due more to experience and 'training', but it's easily apparent that my half-assed screenshot is significantly clearer. Less contrast, sure, but that doesn't magically remove the blur. Most likely the biggest factor is that many people just don't care, which I find beyond frustrating.

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

looks fine to me, the problem is on your end, or it's intermittent somehow.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The difference is clear. Left I took a new screenshot and pasted it over the exact same image.

Closer look:

Here you can see what is causing the blur:

And without the compression artifacts:

However, you've just provided even more evidence to the root of the issue. People are ignorant to what decent quality looks like. The image would be even better if it had a higher resolution than 480x480.

Here's a new version at 708x708 as an example

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website -2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

that is not the image you showed.
