AV1, VP9, or H265?

>>107687256We need new codecs to force you to buy a new CPU.
>>107687267they're probably gonna abandon AV1then AV2 just the next year with some client-side AI decomp/gen dogshit lmao
>>107687267Yeah, they're not intended to be used for the same type of content, AV1 is basically up to 4K and AV2 aims beyond that. I would guess that eventually there will be a AV2 decoder that will take over as the main decoder for both but the encoders will be seperate
What's one piece of software you can't live without?
>>107687777emacs is deprecated thanks to obsidian
>>107687817If you say so. My deprecated Emacs is so much better.
>>107687657Goes without saying. I won't even consider a phone that can't be rooted just for swiftbackup.
>>107687509I want an editor that let's me do basic shit like fix colors/histogram, etc., not stupid hitty filters like pretty much each and every editor.Like an irfanview for Android..
>>107685757lazy nezumi has me chained to windows sadly
it was retarded but it was so lightweight>fastest boot>best performance>very stablehow was experience with 8?
I'm still using 8.1 with open shell...
>>107688942But it still had the same search functionality that everybody uses, the gate was overblown from babby duck retards
>>107686032i always uninstalled and unpinned all of those things
>>107686032Idk 8 but I know 8.1 was ok.It was very similar to 10, except it had those hybrid tablet modes which were kinda cool.I liked that music app Groove, it was limited but had a cool simple design.And I'm still a fan of the tiles starting menu in fullscreen. Maybe my favourite feature was live tiles. I wish those still existed, instead of shitty widgets.Still using the fullscreen start menu but very few live tiles still work.
>Windows got so bad that people are unironically feeling nostalgic about Windows 8 nowThe frog is boiling so hard
Now that the dust has settled, was RTFM (Reading the Effing Manual) a good thing? Did it ever help you out? LLMs have rendered RTFM moot and there's a new generation of "programmers" who won't RTFM, ever. Do you think they'll be worse programmers?
>>107684348why would you need to understand the code? newer LLMs can create code consistently frok good plans - which you can understand without docs
>>107684288Reading documentation has always helped and is a good thing so long as the documentation was well written. There were some API docs that were pretty much useless and I had to experiment before writing my own much more worthwhile documentation.LLMs lie frequently because being correct is not part of their training, and the new generation of "programmers" are already demonstrably worse since my entire workload has shifted to cleaning up their irreparable messes. Just as bad as, if not worse than jeet code.
>>107684288>was RTFM a good thing?Did you ever try doing reading the fine manual?
>>107684288>Now that the dust has settled, was RTFM (Reading the Effing Manual) a good thing?Yes. And yes.
I'd recently started a job where everyone else was an ADHD brained zoomer. Three of us were looking at the same bug, and I diagnosed it by RTFM, earning me praise for my deep technical knowledge. I quit soon thereafter.
New version is out. Also, why was my previous thread deleted? This is a software-based application explicitly engineered for operation within the computational and telecommunications framework of a handheld mobile device, ok? It is therefore unambiguously situated within the broader domain of contemporary technological systems, infrastructures, and applied digital sciences, and as such relevant to /g/.
is it really better than animeboxes? i keep finding new apps people like, and theyre always worse
If you have problems with CloudFlare:1. Try disabling "Only remove expired WebView cookies" setting in Experimental settings.2. Clear CloudFlare cookies and try loading captcha again.
Think I got it working nowHad to delete all data and add the site manually again instead of using the exported .zip
>>107689535>If you have problems with CloudFlare:>1. Try disabling "Only remove expired WebView cookies" setting in Experimental settings.Wow, this actually worked. Thanks nigga
>>107689642Finally, I can get rid of that gay ass chance app
Will 2026 finally be the year of the RISC desktop?
>>107683455>RISC is all talk, CISC delivers, and has delivered for 50 years.Only because IntelAviv got infinite money from the US to make it deliver. 99% of success in tech is access cheap capital.
All aboard the Titanic known as the Personal computer
>>107687500Rosetta was empowered by Apple silicon specific hardware features.
>>107676454No. 2026 will be the year of not having RAM but no devs being willing to make their garbage apps use less RAM.
>>107689456They did the same thing with PPC -> standard Intel chips zoomzoom.
Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?
>>107621970>6 days and 6 hours ago/g/ is dead
>>107680439>I guess you never heard of Windows ME (Millennium Edition)nobody installed that
>>107657868fuck yourself, jay

Just recently got a mac mini for free from my job. m4 pro chip, 24gb ram, 512gb ssd. Booted it up, set everything up, aaaaand what the fuck:>don't have a 1500 dollar display directly from apple? don't have the 5k resolution equivalent from dell? wanna get a nice cheap 1440p or even 4k res monitor? no, sorry, not good enough, all your shit is blurry as fuck because we don't support those resolutions. >want to fix that problem? sure buddy download this software betterdisplay off github. good shit right? we fixed apples mess for you.. that'll be 20 dollars plus tip to use the whole app. also our "Fix" just makes everything scale slightly less blurry, but not actually truly outputting at the proper resolution. plus tip. also when you do this you can't have HDR enabled. You get either slightly less retarded looking text or shit scaling with hdr. your choice faggot>nice logitech/non mac mouse you got there. we're gonna purposefully fuck the scrolling up so when you scroll once it barely scrolls at all, and when you scroll a bunch all at once it torpedoes you to the bottom of the page. if you had a magic mouse from apple, there's a setting for that specifically, but if you plug anything else in you don't get to see or configure that.>don't worry there's third party apps for that too! download them.. but they all have 7 day trials and disable themselves unless you pay 20 dollars plus tip.>wanna upgrade that storage? you don't have the right. should've gotten what you wanted out of the gate, stupid. you literally can't even bring it into an apple store and pay an exorbitant fee to have a cheap ssd thrown in. we just literally don't even do it. go buy an external drive you shit head. fucking moron idiot.who's fucking allowing this stupid shit? do apple fanboys really fucking shell out this much cash just to make their shit usable? what the actual fuck is this shit?
>>107688235Windows 11 education is included with the ISO downloaded from MS.The fact people are bitching about accounts just really goes to show they are willingly installing Pro or god forbid the Home version.It's not even fuckery, you just hit domain join and you get a prompt for local account creation, no trying to trick windows or use cmd.
>>107688571i think the point i was trying to make was that even for fucking free, it's such a pain in the ass to get started and has all these pitfalls immediately and that's kind of inexcusable, is it not? or do you eat this shit willingly?
>>107680183Half of this shit just sounds like you’re unironically retarded and got massively filtered by iDevices. I got this exact same device last year, and I set it up just fine in about an hour and did not pay anything else for displays, performance, etc.

>AI haters have good taste in artYes.
YOU are almost at the end of the road.YOU will fail to make the transition to an AI world.YOU are utterly outmatched.
>>107689391If you were employed you would understand that if you are getting paid the same amount doing less work as opposed to more is desirable. You are forced to untangle the cables regardless. But some code that would take you 30 minutes to an hour to come up with can be shat out in minutes then you jump straight to testing it.
>>107689098rest assured, I'm literally and unironically irreplaceable by either machine or software.

>>107689744The staff deserved it and it's a shame that the hacker didn't leak the database too to scare more of you back to social media.>>107689767>used twitterSays it all. None of you really care for anonymity, this is just the place to drop a shitpost for (you)s and get 20 replies like the epic screencaps on r/4chan. This place needs a complete staff purge and every /b/ lite and porn board deleted to get rid of you and your enablers.Never going to happen of course, so this place will keep following something awful into oblivion while dragging down English language imageboard culture with it. No one young comes here and sticks around because they can get the same ragebait on twitter with more shiny buttons and they actually make OC there instead of pepe and wojak edits.
>>107689809If you have a life then you are not the average 4chan user.
>>107689842If you define life as "not staring at 4chan in a browser tab 24/7, then yeah. I have other websites open or even *gasp* using other things besides the internet browser on my computer.
>>107689839>I hate sounding like an SJW but it was always like this,Yes but nowhere near to the degree it has been for the past 15 years give or take. At most you had some stupid joke about the Iraq war (which was something even americans laughed at too). Today everyone is trying to force feed their own agenda through other mediums.
>>107689840>it's a shame that the hacker didn't leak the database tooyeah, it would've been so fucking good to see that. At least have a proper schema, not an AI reconstructed one based on the php source.

>>107689428everything works on loonix, just not very well.. that's its problem, it does zillion of things, but when you need something intensive that is not networking related, it falls flat. It is still ages behind when it comes to pro media creation I'm not talking about producing videos for your tiktok, I'm talking about controlling a whole stage visuals and illumination for example.

>>107679762This is not the time to be buying computer parts. Everything is being sucked into the black hole of AI datacenters. You should ideally wait until the bubble bursts, but that could take a long time still. I would look for GPUs being sold as for parts and not working and see if the previous owner was just retarded.
