philosophical internet question of the day:

[hombrelobo]

Do all gifs continue to move even if no one is on the webpage they're posted on?

Hey man I tried. But then I started thinking about if all websites are there when no one is on them.

But then I realized that everything is pure coding online. So, in a way..

Just like with a  book. Even when no one is reading it the words are still there.

But html is digital. So, does that mean these things float in cyberspace until a certain code is loaded through manual command?

I don't know.. but at least I tried to be philosophical about the internet. (..kinda)

I'm down to pass around.

Yes it does because your internet connection is running. Which is what enables it to move in the first place.

 right back at you.

you don't need your internet connection running. as soon as the .gif is loaded, then it will keep replaying. you can disconnect your internet and it will still move.

As if anyone needed to know that?

"Hey Bob, did you that if you disconnect your internet after you've loaded a gif it will still move?"

Take the L. You clearly don't understand the intertubes.

Quiet with your take the L shenanigans.
Let's put swyfts's example in real life context.
Who is going to disconnect their internet to find out if a gif doesn't move when so and so happens?

I'm not sure which part of all of this is flying over your head.. 
But here's one such scenario: you've lost your wifi connection. Anyways, I digress. The intertubez are magical. I shall speak no more.

Ginzo. You have no idea what you are talking about. You are wrong like seven times over. You have been owned several times. Just stop while youre only kind of behind before you make yourself look like a fool. Walk away from this at least learning something: dont talk when you dont know what you are talking about. Geeze dude just man up and stop being a b. You have failed.

At the end of the day the answer is yes to OP's question.
SO, you too can keep quiet with your take the L shenanigans.
