Host based firewalling is only partially useful, more useful for behaving programs.

>>107672369
Yeah yeah, programs can each use their own DNS. On linux there's a program called OpenSnitch (a remake of mac's LittleSnitch), which I use to deny programs access to the network, not based on hosts, just /bin/program -> deny. It can of coyrse also block lists of domains and IPs

I think portmaster dors the same on windows; haven't tried it yet

>>107672348
I've been telling /g/ for a decade that a good firewall config is the key to happiness.
The hypercope I've gotten for my trouble is amazing: there's a large proportion of /g/tards who really think Windows has a magic "evil bit" that doesn't just hide packets from the TCP/IP stack, but can reprogram (in realtime) downstream devices to also hide "evil" packets from Wireshark etc.
I mean, it's obviously so they don't have to admit they can't understand RTLFB or firewall configuration, but still, they couldn't dream up copium that doesn't make them sound like flat-earthers?

>>107673199
Not host based as in hosts based, but host based as in the blocking is running on the host the program itself is.

We can hope so.
Humanity is going to have to learn to adapt to the present state of the actual world rather than cater to theoretical mind crimes written for situations of the past.

Copying an idea and spreading it worldwide is easy to do today thanks to technology, and we should be trying to share good ideas with each other to create the maximally best things we can for the mutual benefit of us all. Not to lock ideas behind single individuals for multiple generations of life, to the detriment of everyone else, and sometimes even to the detriment of the idea and individuals themselves.

In any case I'm not worried about it. Simply put you can not stop progress.
As the technology makes it easier to distribute, these concepts of hoarding ideas erodes organically, irrelevant of changes to law or society. As exemplified, artists are always trying to publish books they don't actually want anyone to read, and yet people find a way to anyway. It's a wonder why they even publish them in the first place if they hate sharing.

You do think about us.

>Americans at 19th-century World's Fairs felt insecure about European judgments of U.S. culture and industry, striving to prove their nation's worth against "European prejudices and attitudes of superiority"
>in the late 1800s, American elites sent their children to study in Germany and France, believing German universities and French arts represented the pinnacle of intellectual and cultural refinement
>early American architects and city planners modeled public buildings and urban designs after Paris, Rome, and London, reflecting a belief that European classicism embodied civic dignity the U.S. lacked
>during the Progressive Era, U.S. reformers looked to Bismarck's Germany for inspiration on social insurance, viewing European welfare policies as more humane and advanced
>in the 1920s, American expatriate writers like Hemingway and Fitzgerald romanticized Paris as a haven of artistic freedom and sophistication missing in "puritanical" America
>post-WWII, American urban planners lamented the "cookie-cutter" suburbia of the U.S. compared to Europe's historic, walkable cities with robust public transit
>in the 1970s energy crisis, Americans admired European (especially Dutch and Danish) approaches to cycling infrastructure and fuel efficiency
>the lack of universal healthcare in the U.S. has long prompted comparisons to "civilized" European systems, with critics calling America backward for not adopting them
>American parents often cite European (e.g., Finnish or German) education models as superior in fostering creativity, equity, and critical thinking

>food critics and chefs, from Julia Child onward, have framed French culinary tradition as the gold standard, with America playing catch-up
>Europeans' guaranteed paid vacation (4–6 weeks) is routinely contrasted with the U.S.'s zero federally mandated days, fueling envy and reformist rhetoric
>gun violence debates frequently invoke Europe's strict regulations and low homicide rates as proof of a more "mature" society
>in climate policy, Americans point to Scandinavian leadership in sustainability as evidence of moral and technological superiority
>European attitudes toward work-life balance—long lunches, siestas, shorter workweeks—are held up as more humane than America's "hustle culture."
>public intellectuals like Tocqueville (though French) set a precedent: Americans internalized the idea that Europe offered cautionary or aspirational mirrors of democracy
>Cold War-era cultural diplomacy saw the U.S. anxiously measuring its "high culture" output against Europe's centuries-old institutions like opera and ballet
>the U.S. prison system is often condemned by comparing its mass incarceration rates to rehabilitative European models like Norway's
>architectural critics lament America's car-centric sprawl while praising European compact, mixed-use urbanism as more sustainable and socially cohesive
>parenting debates invoke "French parenting" or "Dutch happiness" as superior philosophies fostering calmer, more independent children
>in rail travel, Americans mourn the absence of Europe's fast, affordable, and scenic intercity trains as a sign of infrastructural decline.

>the lack of universal healthcare in the U.S. has long prompted comparisons to "civilized" European systems
Glad you called it "universal healthcare" and not "free healthcare" like the brainless leftists in the US do. Because there is nothing free about it, except for the leeches and parasites of society.
Every month, 12% of my gross salary is automatically deducted before the rest is transferred to my bank account and there is nothing you can do about it. The money they stole from me is then sent to the healthcare companies to make the rich shareholders even richer and what is left is then used to buy an electric scooter for some overweight deadweight on society, who didn't work a single day in their life, who didn't pay a single Euro in taxes in their life, so that they have to move even less and can become even fatter. And all of that while I, as a job-having, working, part of society am guilt-tripped into going to work sick or with flu, because every day I'm sick at home "hurts the economy".
I'd call everyone a brainless piece of shit who sees this as the pinnacle of societal welfare.

I should mention that I'm using the proprietary NVIDIA driver, so maybe it works better on Nouveau. I know AeroThemePlasma works bug-free on Wayland through LLVM, but LLVM is slow as hell.

alright sorry for the snark yesterday. I assumed becauce I am a boomer that minimal research would trivially show that there's no way your game runs on any iGPU
Apparently these got alot better in recent years and it would actually be close.
I still think you'll be better off with a discrete GPU but maybe someone else who has a current gen thinkpad can give you his experience

It can be extremely verbose, yep. Picrelated's prompt:

>- a beautiful 18-years-old Italian woman with wolf-like features (wolf ears and tail, both matching her hair color) with short straight brown hair in a bob-cut, fringe and green emerald eyes, slender but with soft feminine curve, wearing Roman inspired attire
>explaining the possible causes of the fall of the Roman Empire and how it was likely unavoidable. Make it verbose and implicitly mocking about people, like Elon Musk, nostalgic about an idealized fantasy of the Roman Empire and its fall.

Yep, it's what makes me think that Gemini might have really won this game, if they can keep the lead. This is what I get in ChatGPT using an adapted (no artist name as they're blocked, I've exchanged it with "Evangelion") prompt:
https://files.catbox.moe/c78jsp.png
It doesn't seem to follow the Japanese reading order, besides that, there are a couple of typos and it's a bit more meh in general. Probably not *that* much worse, but still not at the same level. If GPT-Image-1.5 trumps in the leaderboard, it's just because of aesthetics trumping over anything else when it comes to AI slop...
