I can't imagine any way this is possible without crowdsourced information, and at that point you're just interacting with a community (likely the same one as you already are) through a different interface.

But if such an interface existed, it could be a cool project.

This isn't a good summary, just a random assortment of paragraphs. The quotes lack all context. Autotldr tries its best, but it clearly wasn't enough this time.

If I read the article properly, Britain is waking to what's going to be a long-lasting and shameful Brexit-hangover.

Little will be gained—if anything at all—and it's expected that the results will be disappointing for all involved. There's no fixing years of wasted, directionless political effort; rather, Britain will now enjoy plugging, bit by frustrating bit, the holes it dug into itself.

It baffles me that people actually voted for this. For all its faults, there's nothing like the EU. Yet, after this mess, they're just rolling with it?

I don't know about movies, but have you seen their highly informative and helpful comments on tech and free software? Amazing stuff, could probably make a career out of it.

I'm getting a bit tired of seeing boobs nonsensically attached to concepts/objects. It's not like female coding characters is a sin per se, but I often find that the material would lose nothing in its absence. Like now—there's an entire panel dedicated to showing their love. So why bother?

So yeah, I dislike it and also think it's unnecessarily.

That said, if by "so we know it's not a gay romance" you mean that to be the artist's intent, I don't see why that must be the case. Without looking into them, it seems just as likely that they could've simply not thought about it at all. Maybe they're straight and just drew that. While it wouldn't be LGBT+ inclusive, it needn't necessarily be "so that people don't think it's gay."

Hope I didn't wildly misread or overanalyze your comment. You're clearly not glad, but I can't tell if you're adding the last part for the sake of humor, or if you were bothered by what you believed to be a possible LGBT+ exclusionary depiction of romance.

Can confirm it looks like crap on my mobile app of choice (Thunder). I'd consider that an app issue rather than a content one.

Darn, today I learned that Mr. Rogers was ready for war.

Neat, I really like the gray one. Are they comfortable to rest your arms on? As in, does the texture not bother you?

Were the community rules copied straight out of Reddit or something? 3 and 9 are a bit funny.

Yeah, sorry, that part I didn't fact check myself so I didn't even want to mention it. Like I said, many possible reasons.

I think I know what you're talking about, and I think you might have misunderstood a few things. I'll explain my point and I'd appreciate it if you could confirm later whether it helped, or if I'm the one who misunderstood you.

"Saving as..." is, usually, just for setting the name of the file. The full filename, extension included. The extension is just another part of the name. It doesn't define what rules the file's contents actually follow. They're for other purposes, such as helping your operating system know which software to use when opening each file. For example:

User double clicks a .pdf System: Oh, I should try opening this in Adobe Acrobat.

But that doesn't mean the file is actually a PDF. You can change the extension of any file, and it won't automatically be converted to that extension (unless a specific feature has been added to make that implicit conversion). You could give an executable a .pdf extension and your system might then try opening it in Acrobat. Of course, it won't work—there's no way the system could have automatically made that conversion for you.

So you might wonder, why does your (fake) PNG—which is really just a webp with an incorrect extension—still work just fine? You can open it, view it, send it. What's the trick?

Thing is, the software that actually deals with those files doesn't even need to care about the extension, it's a lot smarter than that. These programs will use things like magic bytes to figure out what the file they're handling really is and deal with it appropriately.

So in this scenario, the user could save a webp file as PNG.

funny cat.png (still a webp!)

Then they might double click to open it.

System: How do I open a .png again?

• .webp -> try the image viewer
• .jpeg -> try the image viewer
• .png -> try the image viewer (there it is)

And finally, the image viewer would correctly identify it as a webp image and display it normally.

Image viewer: reading magic bytes... Image viewer: yeah, that's a webp alright

The user might then assume that, since everything works as expected, they properly converted their webp to a PNG. In reality, it's all thanks to these programs, built upon decades of helping users just make things work. Same with Discord, Paint.NET, etc. Any decent software will handle files it's meant to handle, even if they aren't properly labeled.

If you were to check the file contents though, using a tool like file, czkawka to find incorrect extensions, or even just checking image properties, it should still be identified as a webp.

I didn't try it myself as you said because, to my understanding of files and software, doing so made no sense. But again, do tell if I got something wrong or misinterpreted your comment.

Hey, thanks for the input. I'd like to read more about this, but I can't seem to find anything related online. Anything else you could share?

Just checking, you sure you're not confusing fallback-to-another-format when the browser doesn't support webp? Because that's a bit of separate issue, and not a terribly relevant one since all major browsers have supported webp for a while now.
