It is over, Krita developers said no to AI slop.

Kirta already does SD generation though. This "craft coding" stuff sounds like farm to fork snobbery.
>>108529290I think they totally need some kind of AI to compete with Adob*/Clip studioSame shit with gimp vs Adob*Only the basic stuff, most people don't use the new AI shit
sirs, is the free gravy train over?

>>108530179If Threat Interactive were an urbanist, he would call Top Gear marketing slaves for blowing wind at the automobile balloon while neglecting the bicycle balloon which is being restrained by car-centric infrastructure, even when Gamers Ne... Top Gear rants about how anti-consumer the car industry is.
>>108530236TI isn't advocating for a fucking bicycle solution, he's advocating for vendor agnostic APIs and competent engineering.

>>108528713That's only twice as much as a Libra 2 Colour while offering more than twice as much display and additional features such as microSD and EMR.I bought a 13" reader for €800 when you could still get 7.8" for 200.
>>108521340The difference between /lit/ and /g/ on the topic of e-readers is interesting. Whenever these threads come up, /g/ tends to be pretty divisive on using technology for reading, despite being the tech board. On /lit/, people mostly praise e-readers and love the convenience they bring.
>>108529593E-ink color and contrast are not as good as LCD or OLED screens, not by a long shot. They can't display as many colors and they're going to be more washed out and less vivid. They're alright for the occasional colored cover, illustration or page when your primary purpose is reading. These screens are not illuminated (though some readers do come with so-called front lights) and contrast is not as good in general, black & white stuff as well not just color. Grayscale looks better, not better in the sense that you'd prefer to not have the color, but better in the sense that it's closer to what grayscale looks like on a regular screen. Contrast is still lower than on backlit / self-illuminating displays, but grayscale stuff like manga looks convincingly paper-like and is very nice. Color images also look paper-like but it's more like a faded magazine that was discolored by age & sunlight a bit.
>>108527708Running Android applications. There's various commercial and free reading software that people like to use.
>>108530191As someone who frequents /g/ and /lit/ I vastly prefer actual books. I also would prefer to never hear about Scott R. Bakker again for as long as I live.

do i really need a VPN to torrent? ive been doing this for over 10 years now from movies to games and its not like i got spam mailed or anything, is there really a threat to not using a vpn?
Which cheap reliable VPN is worth using on qbittorent? I'm tired of Cox bothering my ass with letters.
>>108526611what?
>>108529329to be desu, I'm not the most well versed in the VPN market. I think Proton has a good bundle offer though
>torrent for years with no issues>a month or 2 ago when I start any torrent program the internet slows to practically nothing across the entire household>read online that my ISP could be detecting torrenting and throttling my connection>pay for NordVPN>it still happens and slows the connection so much NordVPN stops workingWhat the hell is going on? It's not even major licensed media either its fucking anime from nyaa.si. I used both qbtorrent and Deluge and this shit happens. Any ideas?

anyone else paranoid about the lifespan of their devices? everything breaks eventually but i think we're all worried tech will just continue to get more unaffordable (+ unreliable) over time, so we should all be hoarding the older long-lasting tech while they're cheap to maximize the lifetime of our devices.thinking of building my first am5... but it seems wiser to spend that money on pcs like picrel.what's the longest you've ever had tech last /g/? what was it? are you hoarding?

>>108522863Dell's Mini PCs are excellent for managing security cameras, running Emby/Plex/Jellyfin media servers, and basic NAS.I currently own an 8th-generation Intel model and recently purchased another one equipped with 14th-generation Intel and WiFi 6e.I only upgrade smartphones when the new phone significantly increase RAM ( 8 GB or 12 GB). Samsung Galaxy devices are okay with 7 years of updates. I have never replaced a router, I still use an older WiFi 5 (5 Ghz) model, which continues to perform well. I only relocated it when I installed Ethernet throughout the walls.
>>108522473Are there any AM4 mini PCs?
