Day eleven cont: 🌊💨🌀🌡️

The #LNP have a candidate problem continued…

“Speaking at a #RenewableEnergy conference in #Sydney on Wednesday, #SurangelWhipps Jr described seeing two-thirds of an island in his archipelago country disappear under water in his lifetime. “For those of us in the #Pacific who have lived through storm surges, #rising #ocean levels and increasingly high tides, the phrase ‘water lapping at our door’ is not a metaphor or a punchline. It’s our fear and reality,” he said.

The comment was an apparent reference to a 2015 incident in which #PeterDutton, while #ImmigrationMinister, was overheard on a hot mic joking with then-prime minister #TonyAbbott (#dickhead) about delays during a visit to Papua New Guinea (#PNG) , saying “time doesn’t mean anything when you’re about to have water lapping at your door”.

The quake struck at a depth of 10km near the southern coast of New Britain at about 7.04am, it said.

The US Tsunami Warning Center said there is a threat of a tsunami.

Senator Paula Simons🇨🇦

The five of us who spoke - Peter Boehm, Denise Batters, Stan Kutcher, Donna Dasko, and I - were all swiftly declared personae non gratae by Moscow, along with a good number of other Senate colleagues. It’s a badge we wear with pride. #PNG

Pillow 11.1.0 is out!

One of the cool updates is we're using zlib-ng 2.2.2 instead of zlib 1.2.8/1.3.1, which is more than twice as fast at saving PNGs at higher compression levels.

In more detail, zlib-ng has the same file sizes for compression level 0 and bigger files for level 1, but if you care about size, any higher level gives more or less the same file size, and zlib-ng is much faster.

Graph of compression time. For one test image, zlib-ng is much better than zlib. For another test image, zlib-ng is noticeably better than zlib.
Graph of compressed file sizes. At compression level 0: it's the same for all. At compression level 1: zlib-ng is much worse than zlib. At compression level 2-3: zlib-ng is slightly better than zlib. At compression level 4-6: zlib-ng is even more slightly worse than zlib. At compression level 7-9: about the same, zlib-ng ever so slightly better than zlib.
