itβs like how the linux kernel isnβt semver: the number after the decimal point has a maximum of .19 and then the first number increments
except that one time
kernel version 4.20 is the only .20 kernel version

nice
They should skip to 6.9 for good measure
Pull a Samsung and just skip to 20
Where are the distro makers? We need a distro with Plasma 6.7, kernel 6.9, maybe an optional lite version with xfce 4.20 and some meme wallpapers
Time to change the scheme
v26.8
666 the sign of the christians.
So is 777 π§
Why did you upload it as a webp? Nothing against ya, but webp can burn in hell in for it's sins (inconveniencing me when I forward memes to telegram and they come out as stickers) lol
Legit tho, how did you make it a webp? I never tried it, is it an export option on gimp?
sounds like we should get off telegram! (or at least the official client?)
WebP is a pretty awesome format with awesome compression, both lossless and lossy. It's only behind JXL which is not widely adopted.
Trust me, I want to get out of telegram, but the issue is that all of my friends do not want to leave. Stickers are a huge reason for them staying on telegram, but the real reason is that they're used to it so they don't want to try new stuff
Yes, it's an export option in Gimp, and I also use it everywhere. It's smaller than both PNG and JPG, does the job of both (lossy and lossless), and has better quality at the same size.
Nice!! I have been needing to upload some documents to websites with ridiculously small size limitations, so that's really useful! Thanks!
I am also quite annoyed by telegram, but it's their fault for assuming all webp images as stickers
It's such a stupid decision! They can't even benefit from the better compression on all of the other images shared around because of this dumb decision
Webp is way more efficient
Are you ungeskriptet?
What's that? Ungesktiptet came back as "not written" from Norwegian
Oh right, sorry, I mistaked you for someone else
6.6.5.1
Every generation has its words and phrases they use. Mostly to just annoy their parents-- Who had their own words and phrases.
So if you're Hep to the Scene and a Real Gone Cat, Be cool and chill, light up a J because it's 420 somewhere. And enjoy 67. And the not to distant future, we are all going to laugh at Gen Alpha about it. And they are going to be confused about the Gen Beta's annoying slang.
Personally I hope Plasma goes with 6.7 AND 6.9. The memes will just write themselves. And it will be glorious!
finally, the perfect plasma version for my gen alpha sister
genuinely a real problem. stay strong comrades

As a matter of fact KDE 6.9 will be released on 2027/4/20. Source: trust me, bro.
Nobody who finds 6 7 funny is going to be using anything other than a tablet that runs YouTube
Late 40s, novice linux user, and I find it funny. I only know it coz of my kids, and the funny part is when they say it. You start spotting it everywhere yourself too, and in my head I shake my hands and shout 6 7....lol.
