Because if you do that repeatedly you end up with no IDs. Why is Lua the best programming language? |

Banned because lube is actually short for "Lua Binary Something" (a project of mine) which I later renamed to "Bluon" (Binary Lua Object Notation) and merged into modlib. |

I remember picking the username LMD on the Minetest Forums: My brother KGM had simply used his initials, but I don't have a middle name and the minimum name length requirement was three letters so I used my initials (LM) and appended D for Dev-something (Developer? Developing?). LMD has since been mockingly deemed an acronym of the chinese name "Li Min Ding" Update: "L Minetest Developer" has been suggested as another possible interpretation of the acronym. On the Minetest "CitySim" server I went by the playername "alts_go_brrr". I guess you can imagine how that came into being. My current nickname "luatic" refers to the programming language "Lua" (portuguese for "moon", don't dare spelling it "LUA", it's not an acronym) appguru[eu|lars] usernames, but we don't talk about that. |

Mhm, don't forget to mention that the SAAB 9-5 and 9-3 models are awesome too. |

Can WEBP store extended metadata like camera-related information the way a JPEG can? (I'm fairly sure a PNG doesn't officially support extended metadata, even if one was to hack it into the file, I imagine support for it in image viewers and whatnot would be patchy.) (just keep in mind that most viewers will probably happily ignore them)2. There are multiple predefined ancillary chunks for storing textual information |

You get the Fourth Edition of Programming in Lua. Now you don't need to read the outdated First Edition on Lua 5.0 online anymore. *inserts a coin* |

It sure should be. ROllerozxa is a pretty competent admin from what I've seen, and a damn good PHP coder too. Hell, I'm glad this place exists, I'm going to refer everyone who I'd normally bring to my shitboards here and see what they do, you're just the start of this. |

I'm gonna approach this from a dev perspective: I like the PNG spec because it's simple enough. I've written a full-fledged PNG reader in Lua; a simple writer that just spits out ARGB8 and then feeds that to zlib is also very easy to implement. In addition, PNG uses a bunch of CRC32 checksums; you could in theory transmit PNG over the wire raw using UDP or the like - no need for error detection on top, you can already use the PNG CRCs. Furthermore PNG consists of streamable chunks. Can the same be said about WEBP? I feel the comparison might be unfair because WEBP probably doesn't "waste" a couple bytes on error detection. |

Lynx actually makes quite an effort to handle HTML & CSS well. |
