<p>Here's the tl;dr from the makers themselves:<p>They contains 16894 line entries, which correspond to every frame from the original file. Every line is composed of several colored vector drawings in the form of cubes. Each one has the size of 1x1 pixels. These lines are aligned with the top left corner, and contain internal newlines to create rows and columns. Every single of these pixels is colored. It is a lossless transformation from the pngs produced to embedding them, so you could recover the original easily. TL;DR: every line contains one frame of video. In the subtitles.</p>

<p>The mishandling part comes from Grab's misguided plan to make the traumatized sexual harassment victim with the sexual harasser. A commenter even said<p><i>"It’s like you are trying to form a public opinion on this. Just report it to the police to be investigated. Don’t make it look like the victim doesn’t want to fix the problem.”</i><p>This is also not the first time Grab's driver has sexually harassed their passengers. From kissing, sexually testing their passengers, and more.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.imgur.com/DhL4vKq.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/DhL4vKq.jpg</a><p>Indonesia doesn't have net neutrality laws. That's the screenshot of Indosat (Internet Provider)'s app where you can buy data plan from. But as you can see, they sell data plans ala carte, per application in this case. If your favorite app is not there, you're shit out of luck and have to use the more expensive universal data plan.<p>Not only that, last year, the biggest home internet provider (Indihome), and the biggest mobile internet provider (Telkomsel), which both are owned by the government, banned Netflix under the guise of "Netflix hasn't rated nor censored their contents based on our country's rules". The truth is that both of them are selling their own movie streaming service. Indihome has partnership with iflix, and Telkomsel with HOOQ.<p>Now, if you buy new prepaid number from Telkomsel, this is the kind of data fuckery you will get. <a href="https://i.imgur.com/wb6gMBo.png" rel="nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/wb6gMBo.png</a></p>

<p>>Posts linking their replies in the header has been a feature for a very, very long time.<p>Before, that was add-on/userscript feature. Since moot adopted them into 4chan's codebase, everyone has it.<p>>only trolls and candyasses pay attention to the number of replies on your post<p>Exactly. This feature encourages and rewards trolls and people who fish for replies.<p>>There isn't any kind of long-term karma game like on other sites. 4chan is still content-heavy and shit posts are still looked down upon by the larger community.<p>The dynamic of the discussion changes though. Even a slight nod matters in a long run considering that 4chan's culture evolves in a very rapid pace, thanks to its ephemerality and anonymity.<p>><p>Come on.</p>

<p>It's rather disappointing that the authors didn't talk about the biggest thing that has reshaped discussion in 4chan since years.<p>The reply indicator.<p>For people who don't go to 4chan, you can read it on <a href="http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/you-here-s-your-you" rel="nofollow">http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/you-here-s-your-you</a>. Basically, if someone else replied to your post, the post pointer will show a (You) word, showing that the poster replied to a post that you wrote.<p>Moreover, the post number of posts that replied/quoted you will be attached to your own posts. Much-replied post will have a lot of link to the posts that replied them, and very visible when you skip through the thread.<p>This one simple feature has changed 4chan. Before, posts are similar and anonymous since they don't have visual distinction between each other. You have to actually read their content to know what's inside. The reply indicator make controversial posts very visible and "famous" in the thread.<p>Much like Reddit's voting system and Facebook likes or Twitter's retweets/favorites, 4chan now has its own post rating system. The difference is that Facebook likes and Reddit's vote system rewards popular posts that people agree  with and liked. 4chan's "rating system" rewards controversial posts that people rebuke or laugh at.<p>The presence of this reply indicator make people try to post controversial contents, and to be controversial by 4chan standards, your post have to be very, very controversial.</p>
