This was true before the high IQ tune. Now AVIF is ~90% as good as JXL in photographic images. I'll post a comparison of that in an hour or so, look forward to that.

See if you can subjectively rate the AVIF as inferior quality to the quality 95 JPG. They both scored SS2 90 and are both technically visually lossless. Which normally shouldn't be possible because again 75% of all color information is missing.

>90 = visually lossless. Distortion not noticeable by an average observer in a flicker test at 1:1 from a normal viewing distance. This corresponds to the typical output of cjxl -d 0.5 / -q 95 or libjpeg-turbo 4:4:4 quality 95.

Picrel is quality 95 4:4:4 JPG and here is the AVIF: https://files.catbox.moe/rspnzc.avif

What's more wild is the filesize, at 136KB, the AVIF is about 60% smaller than the 353 KB JPG. I expected like maybe 20% smaller desu...

Last I knew Waterfox was a glorified user.js looks like now they actually add features and ship uBO in-band which is nice because the Mozilla store is run by the dumbest people they can find which is saying a lot being Mozilla. Unfortunately it looks like they don't have a patch fix for non-progressive PNGs having white backgrounds instead of transparent ones. That's one of my biggest issues with Firefox using imageboards so much.

>>107587681
Disagree. C++ is just a superset of C. There isn't even really any one true "writing C++" style. Over time it changes. These days is templates, metaprogramming and iterators. 15 years ago it was OOP. It's a weird language, but the best way to look at it is just "C with a bigger toolbox". Pick the right tool for the job.

everything on desktop.

When desktop gets full, I create a folder called "old" and put everything in it and then start accumulating on desktop again.

When i need something from the past I use file search or just explore my nested old directories until something jogs my memory as to how deep it should be.

is he right?

I'm using John the ripper to crack a password for a zip folder and I was doing it with 3 different openCL devices, and each one runs faster than the last. I did this with the following command line:
./john hash.txt --session=linux-Nvidia_ASCII6 --format=zip-opencl --fork=3 --devices=1,2,3 --incremental=ASCII_6

(the ASCII_6 is a custom incremental mode that uses all the characters in the standard ASCII mode but limits password lengths to exactly 6 characters)

When I started this I assumed it would automatically divide up the work according to how fast each openCL device was, but I now am not so sure that is how it works. The fastest of them, a tesla k20xm (even running at less than half it's regular clock speed, which is another thing I need to fix at some point) just finished its share of the work, saying it's at 100% and is "DONE". The other two are dramatically slower. I did notice that the tesla, despite being done, is still doing work. monitoring software indicates its still running under full load and JTR still shows it incrementing which passwords its checking (pic related)

>>TLDR: Is device 1 (the tesla GPU) now taking some of the work that was previously assigned to one of the other devices and running that, or is it just re-running the stuff it already checked?

Well achtually when you move a file within the same filesystem there's no deletion going around, just the location info gets updated. But when you move it across filesystems then it gets copied first and the original gets deleted.
