Youtube is fucking Youtubers over with this AI age verification and that means that videos won't be shown to people if they can't verify their age even if it's videos that aren't actually mature/restricted and are usually shown in their feeds all the time.

The AI does not care. It will not show you any video it thinks will be not appropriate if it doesn't know how old you are.

this was the case for like 5+ years now but it could be bypassed with extensions
>>
>>106484067
No, stupid. Before now they just automatically analyzed video content and age restricted some of it, and this year they shut down every method of bypassing it. Now they're treating most of the site as if it's age restricted if you seem to be under 18, so if you watch The Amazing Digital Circus say goodbye to watching scholagladitoria, gun content, vehicle building channels, and anything where someone swears in the video. Effectively, you must watch either no teenage or kid's content, or you'll be stuck watching ONLY teenage or kid's content.

No, many internet jpeg 4:2:0 images are encoded via a GPU instead of a CPU. Similar to video, an image GPU encoder like Nvjpeg will either produce unreasonably huge file sizes or piss poor quality. If it's the former then a webp encode can produce an archival quality via lossy compression and reduce the file size by 20-30% because libwebp is exclusively a CPU encoder.

The image codec situation on the web is an absolute fucking mess desu.

https://developer.nvidia.com/nvjpeg
>>
>>106484035
I am not reading your cope.
Lossy to lossy encoding is idiotic.
And lossy is always worse quality than lossless. That is the whole point of it.

And archival is about storing the highest quality. You archive music in flac so you archive images as lossless or even RAW if you get that.
Lossy-to-lossy reencoding for archival is an oxymoron.

The only usecase of lossy-to-lossy is fucking thumbnails that you cache and can delete at any point.
But WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THUMBNAILS.
Are you digging through charts just to find out what format to use for temporary thumbnails?
>>
>>106484035
>The image codec situation on the web is an absolute fucking mess desu.
Most images on the web are lossless PNGs.
So the situation is much better than expected! Turns out that most people actually value quality.

>>106482961
Using the fed pepe with the line the CSNBC article added, is ironic.

The only reason why this pepe spread is because it was the first result on the Google image search for pepe.
Back in the day, people actually used google image search and copied images from there to repost.
It all changed when google decided to serve webps. Even the most normiest normies stopped doing it, because they realized that google images saved funny and werent accepted anywhere.

And here you are, shilling for webp3
>>
>>106484103
????

If you can't wrap your head around the concept of lossy archival quality then I can't help you desu.

What we can all agree on is that when that a GPU encoded 4:2:0 JPG with dogshit quality gets converted to a webp you end up with a webp that is BIGGER in file size compared to the source JPG especially at high quality which is why Jpeg XL applying lossless transformations to the huffman tables or whatever resulting in smaller file sizes is pretty fucking cool and whatnot.

That's why I say webp is cursed because even IF you come across a correct 4:2:0 JPEG image you don't know if the file size is needlessly huge or not for webp to achieve that 20-30% filesize reduction with no noticeable quality loss. Websites DON'T FUCKING CARE if the net positive means less bandwidth used.

>>106484116
For mom and pop websites, sure. Not the globo-homo one serving millions of user uploads per day. Do you think they would be able to make any money if they had a backlog of images to CPU encode because they decided to focus on better compression efficiency? You think they're your friend?

>>106484195
50% lower filesize compared to both 4:2:0 and 4:4:4 JPGs encoded by a GPU is nice though it still assumes that the file size of the JPEG is huge. So call it what you will but by volume AVIF would still save us a lot of bandwidth but knowing globo-homo they'll just use GPU AVIF encoders because profit line must go up lol. But yeah, hopefully only CPU encoder for JXL exist like webp and the fucking imbeciles don't touch the default settings.

Trump is beefing w/ Modi, so maybe H-1Bs could be on the chopping block soon who knows

I have never used 1337code to get a job in this industry. During my last job search of 2021-2022, I remember getting a timed 1337code style PHP interview.....I remember how anxious I was in getting these four questions right (which I did), only to never even speak to anyone at the company. I promised myself in the 2010s I would never learn React or do 1337code. I always knew 1337code was going to be a cancer, but pre-pandemic, it was limited to FAGMAN companies I could ignore...but with the supply of new grads post-2017, who "drank the kool-aid" and didn't get to experience post-great recession tech culture (buttcoins on /g/, Steve Jobs still being alive, being in your early 20s and actually being friends with your co-workers while building shit and getting rich), the cancer culture of 1337code would permeate the industry because college kids are cucks
