• Browser makers Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Mozilla have announced Interop 2024, a project to promote web browser interoperability.
  • JPEG XL, a potential replacement for JPEG and PNG image formats, was not included in Interop 2024.
  • The rejection of JPEG XL has been blamed on Google, with the Google Chrome team deciding not to support the image compression technology.

    Am I having a stroke, or is this headline horrendously written?

                I did decline a event because it said “Dinner Party” in quotes.

                When they explained, they meant because it’s not really dinner but snacks and board games. Shame. Was expecting orgy

                  That’s called “Game Night”

                  Don’t ever go to a game night that is called a “dinner party” anyway. You’re likely to get roped into their self-created board game that is, “okay so it’s got a lot of rules and 1400 pieces, but I’ve written them all down on this 20 page spiral bound document and everyone will get a copy and an hour to read”

                  P.s. Fuck you Aaron, I will never come to your “dinner party” again.

                    Hahahah, upvote for including the tidbit with your PS and not making us ask.

                    As someone with very limited short-term/working memory, I feel your pain.

      Horrible headline.

      Browser maker love-in

      Chromium (used by most browsers)

      snubs

      doesn’t support

      Google-shunned JPEG XL

      JPEG XL (because Google doesn’t like it)

        It was chrome and Firefox both who were against the format, both saying too expensive to implement for too small a benefit

      I think these days that’s the rule, if it piques your interest but you have some trouble understanding headline, you may just click on the article
