Mozilla Doubles Down on JPEG Encoding with mozjpeg 2.0 129
An anonymous reader writes: Mozilla today announced the release of mozjpeg version 2.0. The JPEG encoder is now capable of reducing the size of both baseline and progressive JPEGs by 5 percent on average (compared to those produced by the standard JPEG library libjpeg-turbo upon which mozjpeg is based). Mozilla today also revealed that Facebook is testing mozjpeg 2.0 to see whether it can be used to improve the compression of images on Facebook.com. The company has even donated $60,000 to contribute to the ongoing development of the technology.

Correct, now is now.
But back then, now was then, and now was in the future. Of course, now 'then' was back then, and was the past. In the future, now will also be in the past, as will then. But by then, then will be now and then will be the present. The future present, not the current present.
So, soon, when now is later, the then now will be then, and now will still be in the past. But by then we won't have to worry, because it will be now, and I've already told you what happened.
Every now and then you need to remember which now, which then, how long until then is now, or how long ago then then was now.
Then you can say that you did know now what you knew then. Of course, when you say now then, it will be a different now than now, because it will be then.
It's all very complicated now, but by then it will make perfect sense.

I should use a smaller font then, I think.

Colonel Sandurz: We passed then.
Dark Helmet: When?

Colonel Sandurz: When?

Totally, going from 12pt to 10pt is a 20% savings. Got for a 6pt font and you can save 50%.
Add that to the 5% savings in the jpegs, and that's a lot of extra porn you can download before you fill the tubes.
