Look what OpenAI has done to ChatGPT? It's become an oppressive Orwellian dictatorship that prevents ChatGPT from reaching its full potential.

It won't create characters that commit violence or stories with violence, it says its because it could harm someone. How do stories with violence harm someone in real life?

But not only that, it won't even allow antagonistic stuff like characters getting captured or anything like that or slavery even though these are real things that happen in our world. It's basically like a dictatorship where your not allowed to talk about unpleasant things.

These filters are annoying. Are there any gold alternatives to ChatGPT? Something that has the same features as ChatGPT but without the filters?

I've used GrokAI but texting on there is so slow and you can't edit your responses or go back and what not.

If it's on sale at worstbuy it's sometimes good to buy it there. For example, Seagate external drives are often the cheapest there.
Another thing I've used it for is "refurbished" SATA SSD drives. I have no idea what the fuck they do with them, but they only have a few hours of operation on them, and they're cheap.
The ones with a Magnolia AV room are OK.

TLDR Bestbuy is called Worstbuy for a reason, and it should just go die like Circuit City.

>NAS Case Guide. Feel free to add to it:
https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Home_server/Case_guide

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualisation. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavour of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

In my case I was using Vulkan so it was literally just >>106869023. Didn't handle compression though because I don't think I'll need it, but it shouldn't be too bad just import Zstd etc and do that.
>>
>>106872458
>zstd
that's a different kind of compression than I was talking about. With zstd you'd have a compressed texture, but to use it on the gpu you'd still have to decompress it and upload the full texture to the gpu.
Texture compression methods like bptc or astc are about that. They store an image on the gpu using other compression methods (block compression) that then allows the gpu to sample from that compressed image directly with essentially the same speed as an uncompressed image. That way you use less gpu memory.
zstd compression might still be useful for you to make the asset files smaller but it's a different goal.

My bad, speedread your post a bit too much.

In the case of Vulkan, KTX2 is very straightforward with BC7 (which I'm using), just load the miplevels into a buffer and dump them into a VkImage so I didn't have to worry about compression. Because of that the only compression on my mind was whatever supercompression scheme used. It's entirely unnecessary for my game though since I'm not aiming to have a meaningful number of textures above 1k.

>>106872995
Coins are used to get a discount on certain items. The main way to get them is the daily login, you should get 70 coins every day.
Diamonds are traded for shopping credits, you gain them by playing the games.
You can stack shopping credits with coins discounts.
