No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

ok ignore the image, my brother calls me a foid as a joke and I said we're gonna get these matching shirts ๐Ÿ˜ญ

BUT how is the text on the shirt on the image I downloaded (this) but NOT on the thumbnail when I go to send it to my brother?

I haven't seen this happen to any other photo I've ever downloaded and I've uploaded a lot of shitposts on my phone (I have over 300 posts just on Lemmy)
the file said it was just a standard .jpg

You edited the image and the embedded thumbnail inside the image exif didn't get updated.

Such files with the .jpg extension are known as Progressive JPEG (progressively higher resolution copies of the image). Not to be confused with progressive scan video, as opposed to interlaced like NTSC. In turn, that should not be confused with Adam7 interlaced PNGs (which, ironically, accomplish the same goal as Progressive JPEG).

It's possible but unlikely that the editing program would just copy the original low-res copies. Maybe a thumbnail cache needs to be rebuilt?

Also, tell your brother to get funnier jokes, fr ๐Ÿคข

Rough crowd.

Are you one of my siblings? I feel so at home.

nooo!! its just sibling banter, it's not meant to be mean ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ

edit: also we changed the idea to be

"I'm with the foid ๐Ÿ‘‰"

and then I wear the shirt

"I'm with the chud ๐Ÿ‘ˆ"

Oh it's mean, but siblings are like wolves, we gotta toughen each other up.

[โ€“] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

this is actually an original feature of jpeg.

back in the day of dialup internet you could embed a smaller thumbnail in the exif data of the jpeg that would load first, faster.

this would allow your website to be "populated" with content but at a lower quality while the full image continued to load in the background.

in the early internet these were even used sometimes to create single play "gifs" that were of a superior quality that gif just couldn't render.

[โ€“] Winning@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Image files can contain thumbnail exif data. Basically the thumbnail isn't created on the fly every time its needed, it's a second image in the same image file. Some software doesn't edit that exif data when it edits the image, so you can end up with a mismatch like this.

Try a different image editor

FOID is not part of the picture. It's a text caption.

[โ€“] borf@fedinsfw.app 3 points 1 week ago

Depends where you downloaded it from. If you downloaded it by long pressing and saving the image on a website that was rendering the text as a separate layer above, then you only got the image. When you take a screenshot instead, you get the image as you intended.

Cause the boy is wearing his T-shirt inside out ๐Ÿ˜‡
