Am I having a stroke, or is this headline horrendously written?

I read it four times and I still don't understand what love-in means.

I still don't understand. WTF are we talking about. This is tech news, not a celeb scandal. Why can't we just use simple words !

Dinner Party. I think group sex is just implied, right?

I did decline a event because it said "Dinner Party" in quotes.

When they explained, they meant because it's not really dinner but snacks and board games. Shame. Was expecting orgy

That’s called “Game Night”

Don’t ever go to a game night that is called a “dinner party” anyway. You’re likely to get roped into their self-created board game that is, “okay so it’s got a lot of rules and 1400 pieces, but I’ve written them all down on this 20 page spiral bound document and everyone will get a copy and an hour to read”

P.s. Fuck you Aaron, I will never come to your “dinner party” again.

Hahahah, upvote for including the tidbit with your PS and not making us ask.

As someone with very limited short-term/working memory, I feel your pain.

I believe you just responded to a message with the answer to your question.

Horrible headline.

Browser maker love-in

Chromium (used by most browsers)

snubs

doesn't support

Google-shunned JPEG XL

JPEG XL (because Google doesn't like it)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

It was chrome and Firefox both who were against the format, both saying too expensive to implement for too small a benefit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Thank you. I legitimately could not understand the title.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Something about love in subs for Google ? And also JPEG?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I think these days that's the rule, if it piques your interest but you have some trouble understanding headline, you may just click on the article

The register is doing this shit for years. They are trying to sound smart...
