DVI-L chef’s kiss
And here I thought DVI offered lossless signal transmission
Well done now get out
I there’s a loss in signal during game play, you lose the game
What am I supposed to… You sneaky bastard.
they even did it twice to drive the point home…jeez
Took a bit for the first, missed the other one. Damn.
deep intake … slow exhale Give me strength.
I still don’t get it
The pins are Loss
I still don’t get it…
It’s about Loss mate. ( I have no idea either. )
I didn’t get it either, so I tried googling “Loss”.
I think it’s to do with this thing. Specifically the alignment of the little pins in the DVI port seem to be the same as for the “minimalist version of Loss” thing mentioned there on the wiki.
I have a hazy recollection of that comic from way back yonder, and it causing some sort of a hassle. Apparently the minimalist version is some meme, now? Or always has been?
Wow, I’m impressed you’ve been able to avoid Loss for so long.
I’ve also never seen it before now …
Me neither. I’m not sure how that makes me feel.
Thank you for this context. I was truly at a loss.
Yep, this. In a couple places on the image at least. Thank you for connecting the lines and dots.
To answer your question, the loss meme started almost immediately after the original comic was released. It ebbs and flows in popularity, but seems to be something the internet can’t let go of. Lemmy has a particular fetish for it.
I imagine that it is a particular crowd that is present on lemmy that holds on to this one, as I have not seen a Loss meme since 2011. Probably older americans working in tech is my best guess; especially those who consumed web comics from back in the day.
This cant be
This is AI generated for sure
Yep. The warbled surface defects are a dead giveaway
I dunno, it could be, but at some point it becomes easier to just photoshop something than to try and talk an AI into replicating some hyper-specific arrangement of tiny elements of a picture.
Nanoraptor’s photoshop
I need to cut down on my internet consumption.
I don’t see it…
Zoom in on the left hand end of the connector.
DVI-L? I feel stupid that I’m missing something obvious!
I was never going to get that. Thanks!
Oh that’s why that plug often lost connection
I love loss memes, keep em coming
