I hope some politician finally steps in and nullifies all forced arbitration clauses, in past and future contracts. There is no legitimate reason for them to be allowed from the customer’s standpoint (and most voters are primarily customers).
In this case, it is the overflow as 01111111...11111111+1
in binary becomes 10000000...00000000
. (Yes, negative numbers in signed integer format are represented as starting with 1)

But yes, some programs erroneously fall back to 0
in case of a null
value, which corresponds to 1970-01-01. That’s why so many geotags were recorded for Null Island.
Inaccurate. Signed 32-bit integer epoch overflows from January 2038 to December 1901.
I’m glad I’ve overwritten all my comments.

How? Why? By first saving it as a fixed-palette GIF?
Popular myth but untrue.
The ROM is exactly 40 kiB or 40 960 bytes. The NES outputs video at a resolution of 256×240=61 440 pixels. The game never switches palettes mid-frame and thus the highest possible number of colors (of the 64 available ones, of which 55 are distinct) in any screenshot is: 4 sprite palettes × 3 non-transparent colors per palette = 12 colors among all sprites; plus 4 background palettes × 3 selectable colors per palette + 1 selectable color shared between all palettes = 13 colors in the background; or 25 colors in total.
Even one of the most basic lossless image formats, GIF, can use an n-bit palette of 2ⁿ−1 arbitrary colors plus transparent, where 1≤n≤8. For n=5, we can store up to 31 colors at 5 bits per pixel, or 307 200 bits total, which is 38 400 bytes. The palette entries, size etc. will take about 200 bytes at most, and LZW compression built into the format (or even better, whatever PNG uses) can be used to reduce the file size further (significanly because there are huge areas filled with solid color or patterns).
I’d bet it’s possible to make an NES ROM that does nothing but fill the screen with noise-like tiles and switches the colors mid-frame, likely in just 8 kiB of video ROM plus 2 kiB of program ROM, whose screenshots will never compress to below 10 kiB in PNG format, though.
I knew patch files were small (often smaller than their metadata) but I wouldn’t have guessed they were THAT small. I think we’ll see somebody running a spinoff soon, as well as domain squatters offering malware-ridden copies of Lunar Magic (the patching tool).
I know but human skulls have foreheads.
The official logo is realistic and it still works as a Jolly Roger. Even better, arguably.
How did they fail at drawing a casette… in the age of casettes?
I’m Czech so I know.
They’re not making it easier. Which one is Slovensko again?

Their Russia-with-eyepatch flags are not helping either.

They’re going to be in the same location for a given model year, which somebody will likely have documented online.
That’s impractical. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi also needs modems so just remove those too.
Yes, video too, but support by clients is inconsistent (some don’t show playback controls and loop it like a gif, some just display a link). By default, the media hosting server allows for up to 900 frames (up to 30-37 seconds of smooth video) and 2160p; the audio track is removed; the filesize limit is 40 MiB (most instance owners set it way lower, perhaps 5 or 10). There is a caveat: all media must be encoded to a single codec of the instance owner’s choice: VP9 (default), H264, H265, AV1, or VP8. Uploading in one of the others is possible but beware: it is going to be reencoded by the server, and if the process doesn’t finish within the timeout of 30 seconds, you get the error ffmpeg timed out
. In 30 seconds, a server without HW acceleration will typically only process a very short video (for feddit.org, it’s about 1 MiB’s worth of H265) so anything longer than a few seconds will fail! To take advantage of the full upload limit, you must reencode the video yourself to VP9 or whatever other codec is set (you can tell by uploading a tiny file in any codec and inspecting the output).
You can use the following command to reencode the video to VP9:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv \
-r 899/<duration> `only use this for longer videos where you need to reduce frames to 900` \
-c:a libopus -b:a 48k `audio will probably be removed anyway` \
-c:v vp9 \
-crf 32 `constant quality mode, lower is better quality, try finding lowest value satisfying filesize limit` \
output.webm
FFmpeg can do much more to the video: resize, crop, trim etc. Look it up. If you want GUI, try Handbrake.
Alternatively, just use a more lenient hoster like GitHub or catbox.moe and embed the file from there, which has no aforementioned limits: ![Big Buck Bunny 4K](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c0/Big_Buck_Bunny_4K.webm)
will embed a 10-minute 4K movie.
You can. Most instances run image hosting too.

Just rename the county to Bookshire ffs
Arbitrators are very likely to lose their business if they rule against their more frequent client (which is the company of course).
