If it drains fast then there could be some short, but shitty batteries can die by themselves, too.
The procedure I follow is to remove the battery and test its capacity (using an XTAR Dragon), then replace it if real capacity is low.
If the battery is fine then you'll need to get >90% alcohol and give the board a good wipe.

Word of advice from me is that benchmarks can always be manipulated like here for example you have sneyers's (main engineer behind jxl) own benchmarks
The truth is that these formats don't actually compete with each other but complement themselves. AVIF is fantastic for art, large block shapes the kind of content that is usually served over the web, on the contrary JXL is usually better for real life photos
Real crutch for me is JXL features (like lossless jpg transcoding) and simpler algorithms which make for faster decoding and encoding speeds on non-hardware accelerated machines

It's libjpeg-turbo. I though about using mozjpeg/jpegli/jpeg-rs/etc BUT most of the images on the web will display JFIF in a hex editor meaning they're probably generated by a libjpeg-turbo encoder, if not worse (ie many pre-2000s JPGs can still be found today).

So I choose libjpeg-turbo as a good middleground.

Subjectively it looks like a stalemate to me. At similar AVIF filesizes JXL tries harder to retain underlying textures at the cost of blurring and it does work beyond 100% zoom in some parts.

I guess most metrics even if accurate weigh the average of an image. A better one if super autists had the audacity to work on would make some kind of heat map highlighting places where codec A did subjectively better and places where codec B did subjective better. Though SSIM is just too fast to give up right now especially if you're a web server going through thousands of images per second, IF they optimize image parameters for SSIM targets at all.

Why are the chinese so bad at technology? Why does the world try to make China seem like a tech powerhouse? They're still basically India/Africa level, completely unable to innovate or to develop advanced technology.

China has issues with things that require extreme precision.
And now manufacturing is leaving China in mass, I don't see them getting anywhere fast.
However, most of their sales are to their own CPP controlled markets. They don't need to compete with better Euro or US tech.
They just use their own shit even it's it's worse
