for my use cases of memes or a PowerPoint type thing once in a while for school. Literally any image format works for me. I don’t care about quality (as long as it’s not REALLY bad) and just want to get the image from Google to the PowerPoint, and somehow GOOGLES own image format fails to work for GOOGLES PowerPoint product.
I don’t understand how you can not support your own format 10 years after it came out.

pro tip by the way, you can open it in Microsoft paint then “save as -> .PNG” to get Google slides/whatever to accept it.

(before someone recommends alternatives, im talking about use on a locked down school computer. I can’t use alternative software that’s better because they block images in WIKIPEDIA, no shot for using an actual foss software lmao)

the situation the meme describes?

unless they recently changed it you can’t add an image using GOOGLES image format in GOOGLES PowerPoint thing

once when I was being an (at the time) unmedicated AuDHD 5 year old, my autistic mom tried to tell me there was “no autism in my day”. She got upset when I didn’t believe her.

it’s worth pointing that my grandpa (moms side) was really autistic in hindsight. He never got higher than a D in highschool, took apart my grandma’s hairdryer the first day they got married to “figure out how it worked”, and was so obsessed with fishing that his trophies took up too much space and had to be moved to the garage.

I feel like a historian reading hieroglyphics trying to understand this 😭

Just a connection I realized recently. This kind of homophobia is THE REASON WHY people assume there was no gay/trans people in history. Because they’re afraid to say the obvious about history and don’t teach it.

obligatory “people on Lemmy don’t reflect the Idiocracy of where I live” (conservative Florida). I know nearly everyone here knows that trans people have always existed, but my God people here hardly know what a trans person is, much less the history of it. also it’s literally illegal to teach history that’s not heterosexual in school 🥀
