  • Mine is a judgemental little fucker. It will kick on and then make a beeline for the first thing it can find on the floor. I stop what I am doing and untangle it, I then go back to my office and and before I even sit down, the little fucker is stuck again… But this time on the opposite side of the house.
    We once lost it for 3 days and finally found it wrapped in a blanket. The blanket was folded and inside a bag. The opening to the bag was up against the wall. The bag itself was under a bed in a bedroom that is off limits to the vacuum.

    That’s pretty cool. However, no human has ever won by more than 15min, and every horse has a 15min delay built into their times. So even the biggest winning margin of nearly 11 minutes would have lost to the horse if they had started at the same time.

    I was thinking it was sync, but I didn’t want to call them out if I was wrong…
    I suspect that it was originally written for devices with much less power and much less memory. Also reddit had upper limits on image size. So, Lemmy’s yolo way of dealing with images is coming up against sync’s attempts to be able to run nicely on the worst devices.

    That’s the real problem. The app he is using reduces the image to optimize memory usage, but if the image has too many pixels in either direction, it ends up decimating too much.
    I ran into that issue with one of the Lemmy clients when I was trying them out, but can’t remember which one it was. If I remember correctly, it should be something that you can turn off, but it can drastically slow down how long it takes to display some images.
