I was having a conversation with someone today about BIOS. We decided that we would share our bios files with each other, but the problem came about over a grammatical issue. Instead of saying, "BIOS FILES," I wanted to just use one word - the plural word for BIOS.If 'BIOS' is a noun - a thing - then what would be the grammatical plural of the word, "BIOS?">inb4 wtf are you doing sharing your BIOS with another human being

JPEG-XL is finally getting back into Chromium.How excited are you?
>>107594249By this image PNG won, and no way jpg looks that bad, have you ever seen a jpg?
>>107608817>512x512>2.2 MB>vast sea of null bytes in the file data>red circuit lines highlighting out of order parts of the hex values on the monitor>barely visible RGB/CMY spots throughout the imagewtf did anon mean by this?
>>107615447I wonder if they use jxl layers in their "Live" photos to store the extra frames or a different approach. Can you share some pics?
>>107615597>PNG wonYou did realize it's 80 times larger for the same quality right?

>User base almost entirely consists of people who don't want Chrome style AI shit>Add AI shitWhat the fuck is Firefox's new retard CEO thinking?
>>107613684If Firefox were to ever ditch the manifest v2 adblockers (ie, uBlock Origin, the real one), then its forks would need to do what Brave is currently doing and protect the mv2 code even though Chromium has gotten rid of it. That's a huge job that I don't think many (if any of them) are capable of doing, but I guess we will see.If Mozilla decides to kill ad blockers then ad blocking becomes much harder to come by.

>>107615887I had to use rocketchat for work, it was trash. Upload an image with your message and now you have to edit your text in a single line textbox that clips after 40 chars or so. Tried deleting messages once and it just said success but the messages stayed. That's just off the top of my head. All the stuff I listed is my reasons for using discord over other apps (besides the networking problem - I only talk to friends on discord because all my family prefers whatsapp), they're all the boxes I want ticked if I was ever enticed to try a new app because they're all important to my ux. Sending files larger than a couple of megabytes or using wildcard emojis are not my requirements for a chat app, nor do I give a shit about roles and colors. I just use it to talk to my friends with decent media support and multi device userfriendliness.
>>107614933Whatever AI is getting their data from discord should be pretty good at pony sex roleplaying since it's got a decade of mine to work with

What would it take to manufacture CRTs on a commercial scale again in 2026 and the years to come?Would it be more viable to buy existing IP/patent rights from the companies that used to be the leaders back in the day, or to re-develop the technology from scratch using modern means?
>>107610361thank you anon, how would you recommend I phrase that in the future?
>>107610463>Actual-CRT fagThat is completely wrong. CRTs are obsolete museum pieces that are not coming back. Deal with it. They are only good for legacy material that was made when CRTs where the only solution in town.My current IPS and OLED units absolutely blow away any of my former CRTs of yesteryear.
>>107613184It is copium that plays on optical illusions that form from the limitations of our visual cortex.
>>107603064Which doesn't exist outside of a very tiny niche who do not possess the capital to justify the sheer cost and time it would take to reconstitute commercial CRT production of yesteryear.
>>107611847I had excellent peripheral vision my whole life. CRT monitors do not flicker perceptively in peripheral vision, at all. Even shittiest pre-14" at the lowest refresh rates do not. It might be technically there but not noticeable to human eye. Get the fuck off my planet, bug-eye.

Software engineering will be a solved problem by the end of the decade
>>107613175Because every frontier model producer is reporting difficulty scaling any further and is resorting to cheap tricks and misrepresentation to make it appear that they're still improving so they can keep hoovering up funding money. We ran out of training data a while ago.
>>107609658Software engineering already is a solved problem.People write code every day.
>>107615483All investors think they are looters.
>>107613175Because line eventually stops going up. Automobiles quickly reached a point when they stopped improving fundamentally. Airplanes quickly reached a point when they stopped improving fundamentally. CPUs quickly reached a point when they stopped improving fundamentally.It is 2025 and we have no flying cars, no teleportation, no AI (no, slop is not AI), no interstellar or even interplanetary travel (travel, not rare scientific missions) and so on.Otherwise let me tell you about this fusion reactor that will surely work in about 10 more years.
>>107613175Because it's run of data to train on. Current AI has no adaptability and no capability to learn on its own. There needs to be a revolution in hardware followed by another revolution in AI software before we'll see actual useful AI.
