720p is HD, though
1080p is FHD (Full HD)
1440p is QHD (Quad HD)
The fact 720p was ever considered HD is a crime
Given we had 576 lines in Europe, rather than the American 480, all it did was confuse matters when they made 1080i/p available at the same time and call it all HD. Salt in the wound to retroactively call progressive scan SD, EDTV when that’s basically what they should have called 720p
Oh and the HD-capable Vs HD-Ready™️ Vs actual full (aka real) HD nonsense still has me irked
Yes I’m shouting at clouds
Something tells me you’re a Technology Connections watcher.
Who isnt on lemmy :p
… Maybe
720p is fine when encoded correctly with a reasonable bitrate. You will notice it on larger screens, though.
I’m old school, anything above Standard Definition is high definition, the rest is just marketing or useless jargon. (…and even for SD you still have to specify if it’s PAL or NTSC or whatever.)
And I’m still referring to computer screen resolutions by exact pixel dimensions, I can’t remember the marketing abbreviations like MXQTSVGA (Mega Extended Quad Turbo Super VGA)
I’m even older school, anything above 405-line is still High Definition to me

GIMP to the rescue!
EDIT: Technically GIMP is on my desktop, which I remote to, so my comment was misleading.
MUCH better. Thank you stranger.
Interesting. Do you use it over termux or something?
I edited my comment since GIMP is running on my PC and I Vento into it. It’s how I keep an eye on my work sessions without having to stayed glued to a computer.
cool, thanks
I was kind of anticipating an Android port of GIMP tho
There have been Android wrappers for GIMP that are always bad because the UI is made for mouse/keyboard. Until someone manages to make a port or something that has a touch-focused UI, I don’t expect a mobile version to ever be usable at all.
yeah, but it could still benefit tablet users
That’s true. Krita is pretty useless on a phone, but it’s fairly popular for tablets. Also, some people use Android on a more standard keyboard/mouse/monitor setup and would appreciate GIMP in any form that works on their Android computer.
It’s really needed.
Oh yeah, there we go 👌
*yeah, not yea or nay. It isn’t a vote.
AD480i w/ ads
Sometimes I wish I could unsubscribe.
Man it’s antifa, they don’t want you to un subscribe.
What?
See the username.
AD320x240
ADCRT
With cigarettes and alcohol ads, like in the good old days, not gambling and pharma, like today.
ADSD?
I’m old enough to be on ADSD instead, but it’s the crappy 480i kind with VHS Macrovision that never quite works right.
Pretty sure this was shopped, not slopped.
Huh.
Like any good. Meme, I stole it from another instance.
