Tf is an avi

[-] vind@lemmy.world 76 points 8 months ago

Short for avatar, which used to be the name for profile pictures

[-] Lev_Astov@lemmy.world 40 points 7 months ago

But... there's no i?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 33 points 7 months ago

the schwa in /'a-və-ˌtär/ is a close homophone of /ɪ/ combined with English's habit of forming diminutives using /ɪː/

[-] spizzat2@lemm.ee 27 points 7 months ago

Sure there is. It's basically the only thing in the picture!

[-] HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

Along with the frog in the lift, of course

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 9 points 7 months ago

Avatai my brother.

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago

It’s a great thing we don’t type those extra three characters ong frfr

[-] Klanky@sopuli.xyz 6 points 7 months ago

I still call them buddy icons when I’m not thinking :facepalm:

.avi was a video file format like .mpg back in the day when we had to download our porn one file at a time, slowly. Though in this instance I'm assuming it's a fucking stupid shorthand for "avatar."

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Oh, I'd forgotten about .avi's. Also haven't thought about limewire in about as long.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

I too forgot all about .avi's. How did that happen?

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip 12 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Probably due to you not remembering them

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

You're not wrong.

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

The ravage of time I guess?

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 months ago

Well do you at least remember DviX?

[-] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 5 points 7 months ago

DivX, no?

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 7 months ago

That's quite possible haha.

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

That's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

The compression format or the failed rental format?

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago

Compression format, xvid replaced it before the hevc codecs were invented.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Yes!

[-] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I'm assuming you're correct

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 26 points 7 months ago

Audio-video interleave, an early video container that sucked because you couldn't play it unless it was complete, making it unfit for streaming. The only use I can think of nowadays is to generate an NTSC MPEG-2 file that even early DVD+USB players will play, for testing composite video equipment.

[-] Maven@lemmy.world 16 points 8 months ago

I think that's a typo but otherwise it's a file format

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Much frog

[-] GluWu@lemm.ee 56 points 7 months ago

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 27 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I'm not high enough for this. Someone tell me what I'm supposed to see which isn't there.

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 54 points 7 months ago

signal-2024-03-23-21-15-21-185

Nevermind. Got high enough.

[-] ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I'm still not awake after waking up recently so I saw it right away lol

[-] Cysioland@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 7 months ago

I had a weird dream about elevators today, coincidence?
