when is something going to be done about all the arch shitters and retards?

I am regularly amazed that we pretend folders are the right way to organise files. They’re entirely arbitrary. Every competent file system ignores them to its best ability. Why can’t I have a file in two folders? Why does one have to be a “reference”? Why can’t I filter for files that exist in 3 folders with X extension?We’ve been played for absolute fools.
>>107685164That's what hard link is.Both /dir1/file and /dir2/file point to same reference in filesystem./dir2/file pointing to /dir1/file is called soft link.

I suspect that the internet might be pretty close to the point of being literally unusable
these newest captchas are basically site killing, easy af for bots, exceedingly tedious and error prone for humansI feel like the mod team is just intentionally sabotaging the site at this point

>>107683755>but will be without third world.Kek every time someone posts this pipe dream I have to remind them that they have the ability to ban the third world now, they don't. They could mark all packets coming into the US from overseas or outside routing and they don't. They could make this happen right now, they don't.Instead what will happen is YOU will be forced to identify yourself to the highest degree of control and identification with attestations built into every desktop, but turdies will run amok and effectively take over the internet for free. Your posts will be earmarked with your name, ID, and phone number while all the turdies will be stealing your name, ID and phone number to spoof in their posts because you were fucking stupid enough to give it away to a site like 4chan, lmaooooooThink that's far-fetched? that's what's happening to UK and the OSA right now:https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/10/09/hackers-steal-britons-ids-hijacking-online-safety-checks/You're never escaping the third world, and any act you may impose on yourself to make it go away will just make it easier for them and worse for you.

>>107685402Fucking this. What's the idea with Captchas that can be easily done by bots but hard for real humans?

>>107684841>the man in the room isn't speaking ChineseBut you can give him arbitrary material in one language, without needing to worry about whether it's specifically covered in his book, and get a reliable instant high-quality translation. It's hard to distinguish his translation from one written by a bilingual person.From a philosophical point of view, it's still interesting to argue about the difference. But if you just need to translate a bunch of shit then it's hard to see why you would care.The man appears to "know" Chinese for all practical purposes, and his services are much cheaper and quicker than those of the bilingual guy.

This is the worst, most jeeted website I've ever had the displeasure to use. Holy fuck.

It's funny how lefties only started hating Twitter once it stopped being their personal echo chamber that gave them an inexplicable amount of control over policy. The moment competing ideas were allowed, they discovered what we already knew. That without censorship, online forums naturally trend toward the right because it's the natural state of things. Leftism requires strict curation and is a forced state of mind that is counter to joy and peace. It's why leftists can't meme.It also closed lefties tap of infinite cp, which they rely on so much they created a new forum with the sole purpose of sharing it under the guise of fighting fascism. Truly fascinating behavior.

AV1, VP9, or H265?
>>107685338>H265 for encode speedsvt-av1 is faster than x265so what did you mean by this?
>>107685382If it were, all the anime encoders that used to do AV1 for seasonal releases wouldn't have switched back to H265
>>107685382100% this. AV1 is now officially faster to encode vs x264 slow. x265 is a complete fucking joke now lol.https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/106327782
>>107685395>If it were...it is, and has been for a very long time already.>all the anime encoders that used to do AV1 for seasonal releases wouldn't have switched back to H265did they ever claim that av1 being too slow was the reason? you just made it all up didn't you.
Until AV1 stops killing small details even from low bitrate H264 then it's still worthless to me. It's going to forever be just for animemes.
