Ah, good shout, thanks I’ll do that 👍

Although some would argue there’s a lot of foreshadowing.

Maybe, although it’s multiple people, so seems like it wouldn’t be a camera fault.

Possibly it’s how they are getting to me - I don’t get them directly, they come to via someone else, and I think the someone else may be getting them via WhatsApp (which I don’t use).

So in fact it’s maybe the compression from WA, rather than an issue with HEIC? I should have thought of that before!

Maybe they’re doing something else to their files then, but seriously they are grainy as hell.

Ah, that’s a shame. Thanks anyway though :-)

Yeah I hate this too - one of my clients regularly supplies images as HEIC files and they are always crappy to work with. Plus the images just seem much lower quality, which is a problem when they are being used for professional purposes.

I considered that, but it’s a paid app - yes it’s only a token amount (99p in UK, ymmv) but just as a point of principal, am I fuck paying extra just to be able to open some photos.

I think I’ve got that but have never played it. Must get it running one day!

No problem!

There’s one at !askmeanything@lemmy.ca :-)

As a football ⚽ fan, I can confirm that time moves excruciatingly slowly when defending a 1 goal lead, and absurdly quickly when a goal behind.

Yeah, likewise :-)

And you’re right of course.

Not if the answer is Perth.

Yeah, it didn’t seem all that likely to be the reason.

Oh ok, so the account itself becomes the point at which you aggregate the stuff you want. Interesting, thanks 👍

Thank you, interesting answers.

• How much, if any, input does your son have on the rules you set for him? Can he realistically suggest changes to the rules?
• How positively/negatively do you believe your son views the rules? Does he follow them willingly or grudgingly?
• How does his situation compare with those of his friends?
• How have the rules developed over the years? Have they loosened/tightened as he’s grown up? At what point do the rules stop appying?
• To what extent are the rules enforced? And by what methods?
• Do you ever question your approach?

Genuinely interested in this, none of those questions are asked with prejudice.

I’ve noticed this too. Most of the time it works, but ever so often it fails.

I wonder if it could be a file size limit or something? Some screenshots will be more complex than others and thus might be just the wrong side of the line for uploading. I’ve not looked into in detail though, so can’t say for sure.

I don’t know if this is helpful or not, but you can do this on Sync for Lemmy. As a test, I just added you as a favourite and now you appear in my Favs list alongside my chosen top communities.

However I don’t know if there’s any way to create a feed consisting of all favourited people’s posts, which would be more useful IMO than having to check each individual favourited person. Will have a go and see if I can find a way.

EDIT: Couldn’t see a way to do it unfortunately, but have started a thread on the Sync community to see if anyone knows how.

Blessings!
