As a lay person, codecs and containers are not visible to me, but the file extension is.

So .webm would be relevant in a post about .webp, because they are only one letter different.

Kind of a tangent, but while the png format uses lossless compression, you do not know that the .png you have in front of you is lossless from the filename; image softwares can and do support preprocessing an image with lossy algorithms to improve the file size.

This is sort of unlike flac for audio -- it is technically also possible, but hardly anyone would do it, since the only reason to use flac is for lossless compression.

I get the impression that .png is used alongside .jpg as a general image format, although i don't really know.

You also don't know if your .png file has an alpha channel or not -- might have been made without one.

Ahem*

"I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!"

The mac terminal is nice but i feel like it is missing a lot of the normal userland stuff that Linux typically has. Even power-shell has gotten better over the years but not Mac terminal.

Very easy to change wallpaper.

Much harder to run non-authorized applications :(
