Today is #FloofDaughter #Mira's birthday (I decided on the day—nobody knows for sure) and the five month anniversary of her adoption (I think MY adoption by HER is just a few weeks ago, honestly 😁). It's also Hobbes' birthday (RIF: Rest in Floofiness).
In honor of this day, and in homage to the computer I loved most growing up, here's a picture of Mira that conforms to the display limitations of a #ClassicMac. It's also a hat-tip to #BillAtkinson, as it was made using his dithering algorithm (a variation on #FloydSteinburg).
It's funny to me that smooth scaling algorithms like bilinear, bicubic, lanczos, and others used to be so computationally expensive that you'd only see them in graphics utilities. NOW, you can't get rid of them.
Because of that, I've included a non-smoothed, non-interpolated 4x zoom of the same image. XD
