    Facebook was one of the first large-scale social networks. In The Facebook Effect, David Kirkpatrick stated that Facebook's structure makes it difficult to replace, because of its "network effects". [neutrality is disputed] As of 2016, it is estimated that 44 percent of the US population gets news through Facebook. [439]

  3. Letterboxing (filming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letterboxing_(filming)

    Window-boxing occurs when an image appears centered in a television screen, with blank space on all four sides of the image, [9] [10] such as when a widescreen image that has been previously letter-boxed to fit 1.33:1 is then pillar-boxed to fit 1.78:1. It is also called "matchbox", "gutter box", and "postage stamp" display.

  4. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    Each iteration of the Sierpinski triangle contains triangles related to the next iteration by a scale factor of 1/2. In affine geometry, uniform scaling (or isotropic scaling [1]) is a linear transformation that enlarges (increases) or shrinks (diminishes) objects by a scale factor that is the same in all directions (isotropically).

  5. Image scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_scaling

    Image scaling can be interpreted as a form of image resampling or image reconstruction from the view of the Nyquist sampling theorem.According to the theorem, downsampling to a smaller image from a higher-resolution original can only be carried out after applying a suitable 2D anti-aliasing filter to prevent aliasing artifacts.

    Facebook also said it was supporting an emerging encapsulation mechanism known as Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol (LISP), which separates Internet addresses from endpoint identifiers to improve the scalability of IPv6 deployments. "Facebook was the first major Web site on LISP (v4 and v6)", Facebook engineers said during their presentation.

  7. Display resolution standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution_standards

    The aspect ratio determines how the image is scaled and stretched or cropped to fit the screen. The most common aspect ratios for graphics displays are 4:3, 16:10 (equal to 8:5), 16:9, and "21:9". The aspect ratio also affects the perceived size of objects on the screen. [5]

  8. List of scale model sizes - Wikipedia

    The rather uncommon [citation needed] 40 mm figure scale wargames figures fit approximately into this scale. 1:45: 6.773 mm This is the scale which MOROP has defined for O scale, because it is half the size of the 1:22.5 Scale G-gauge model railways made by German manufacturers. [citation needed] 1:43.5: 7.02 mm: Model railways (0)
