WHAT IS THAT THING WHERE ARE THE BELOVED CORNERS?!?
only liberals can see the corners. congratulations you now see the bear’s true form. did you look at your address bar yet? pretty freaky right?
Oh shit oh fuck
What’s the story behind this unfinished command and conquer sprite? I never found out.
Early days of hexbear (maybe still chapo.chat then?), image compression wasn’t in place. Someone tried to upload this massive image and it broke the site. I believe the emoji is based off what actually managed to load.
Bar none the funniest day in site history
beats it
Even more hilarious than I thought it would be

Huh? Are you… Trying to download Hexbear?
You wouldn’t download a website, would you?
Computer, bring up all the posts. ALL. THE. POSTS.
It contains several thousand copies of pigpoopballs.jpg.

POV: you opened the emoji picker.
OK, so that’s only about 220 MB if you scroll through every single one to load them all simultaneously, but still.
yeah it’s ridiculous. It takes up an order of magnitude more space than any other website in desktop Firefox as well. It looks like it’s mostly in cache storage “instance-cache” and “precache-v2” probably created by the web CacheStorage API.
I wonder if it’s just that the lemmy web frontend uses more modern web APIs that most sites don’t use, and the caching is just dynamic based on available space or something? Probably not even configured by lemmy.
I think it’s part of the whole “unused space is wasted space” way of thinking about computers. It just uses as much space as it can until it can’t anymore. It doesn’t take into account that people may not want to thrash their storage device, and may want to download and install things that take up lots of space. At which point all the caches that every program maintains become a burden because there is no real automatic cleaning of old cached data.
I always hated that “unused ram is wasted ram” as a justification for heavy bloated software. Like I bought this ram to run more than 1 application at a time, what is this? Windows 3.1?
Unused ram is space for me the user to choose to put more processes into
The idea is that programs are supposed to be aware of “memory pressure” and react to high pressure by releasing resources, but I don’t think it’s really implemented by most things. I guess swap space is supposed to make full memory not matter as much but still.
