What would be considered the ideal screen resolution for laptops with 13"-14" displays? I've seen 4K but that seems overkill.
>>107634540>>1076345702880x1800
>>107634487*x1200 so I can 2x integer scale 800x600, which's about the absolute highest resolution supported by anything I have intetest in running fullscreen.
>>1076344871920 x 1080 or 1920 x 1200 for 13 inch
>>107634487For typical laptop view distance ~200dpi is perfect at 100% scaling.
really liking the Framework 13 with 2880x1920 monitor atm, the 3:2 aspect ratio is comfy for codemonkeying
Jpeg Xtra Large fucking sucks you lying kikes. Completely unusable on like 80% of phones out there.I'm not buying a $1,000 phone just to use this laggy shit. This is straight up a planned obsolescence scam.https://files.catbox.moe/v4yd9z.zip
>>107635008It's libjpeg-turbo. I though about using mozjpeg/jpegli/jpeg-rs/etc BUT most of the images on the web will display JFIF in a hex editor meaning they're probably generated by a libjpeg-turbo encoder, if not worse (ie many pre-2000s JPGs can still be found today).So I choose libjpeg-turbo as a good middleground.
>>107635046Subjectively it looks like a stalemate to me. At similar AVIF filesizes JXL tries harder to retain underlying textures at the cost of blurring and it does work beyond 100% zoom in some parts.I guess most metrics even if accurate weigh the average of an image. A better one if super autists had the audacity to work on would make some kind of heat map highlighting places where codec A did subjectively better and places where codec B did subjective better. Though SSIM is just too fast to give up right now especially if you're a web server going through thousands of images per second, IF they optimize image parameters for SSIM targets at all.
>>107635285It's a thing already (picrel is a ssim heatmap), but there are newer metrics that take that into account.
>>107634689Okay best I could get JXL down to was 105 KB which is around 10% smaller than the AVIF here: >>107634689https://files.catbox.moe/br395q.jxl118 KB AVIF SSIM: 0.91105 KB JXL SSIM:: 0.88118 KB AVIF PSNR: 27.7 dB118 KB JXL PSNR:: 26.4 dB188 KB AVIF VMAF: 83.2106 KB JXL VMAF:: 80.9Objectively JXL is not 10% better than AVIF. Subjectively I think the JXL looks like dogshit now. Stock avifenc setting are terrible thoughbeit, I hope these things become the mandatory defaults soon:Comment too long.

Yeah, JXL blurring is really bad now. I'm sorry but Jpeg Xtra Large just plain fucking blows desu. Terrible decoding performance and no clear advantage over AVIF other than lossless but I doubt there's going to be a huge demand for 100 MP camera raws anytime soon.I heard there's a new decoder being made for it, could that improve decoding speed of this shit thing?
how do we lock down school laptops so that kids can not access social media, online entertainment, games and AI in class?https://x.com/MatrixMysteries/status/2002797967145845133
>>107635141Just don't give kids laptops.
Glad to have finished school before this laptop shit became a thing. I've seen videos of kids in the US breaking those cheap chromebooks for tiktok attention.

>>107635207I remember having to pay insurance for mine, which was like $15, I think. With that you could get a new one if you misplaced it or if you were retarded enough to break it. I went through 3 years of secondary with one, and mine was in immaculate condition by the end. Back then I was unenlightened, but I wish I had known about corebooting them (assuming mine was compatible). I also could've just taken the msata ssd out of it to use for booting on my personal system. I'm not sure what they do with them; they probably just recycle them. I wonder what you could do with a school year's worth of chromebooks in a cluster--probably run a small minecraft server. >>107634811The reason they're handed out is so that the admins and teachers with administrative privileges can take a peek through the camera when students are at home. Whatever software they use displays/logs searches (obviously), screen, and keystrokes, I assume.
Is it worth getting into 3d printing?it looks like a cool hobby but I don't know if people just forget about it after playing around for a month
>>107635279Those are VFAs, more modern printers heavily reduce these. The best is maybe the QIDI Q2, it has a higher belt resolution, which makes them almost invisible, pic related.
>>107635279Slower extrusion/hotend moving speed somewhat fixes it and so it buying a more expensive printer, although these lines will still be visible to an extent. You can also postprocess every part by either manually sanding or soaking ABS in acetone but I haven't tried that myself yet.
>>107633765>>107633798Crossbows are pretty fun too as a europoor. I printed the Adderini repeating crossbow, way more power than I was expecting with the 80 lbs arm, the AL arrowheads can go through two filled cardboard boxes. I'm designing some custom mods for it too. 3D printers can be fun even if you don't know CAD, but they really become 10x more fun if you do.
>>107633798Fully custom design? I'm guessing it's .22LR? I'd be interested to see someone design a fully printable 9mm handgun, but I don't know if that's possible since nobody did it yet as far as I know, only carbines.

>>107602347Kinda embarrassing update: my wife picked up the robot and that somehow fucked up the LIDAR sensor and now it just runs into walls constantly. It's still under Amazon return window so we're sending it back and getting a new one. Apparently this is a really rare thing, none of our friends who have the same brand of vacuum cleaner had this issue and we can't really find anything online. I'm sure I could troubleshoot it or even talk to support but we specifically got it on Amazon during black Friday with the idea in mind of returning it if there were any issues so that's what we're going to do. Not related to the /cyb/ privacy concerns discussion but since I was singing its praises I thought it would be disingenuous to not update the thread with this development >>107617557>Does the roomba spy on you?Not noticeably. It does map out your floor obviously. But it always returns to its charging/cleaning station and stays there so you can put it in a private corner if you're concerned about passive surveillance or microphones or something like that
>>107612102>How can you even protect yourself from this kind of stuff?It's time to think of "protecting" yourself a little bit differently now that privacy is dead due to metadata and AI being really good at pattern matching. Join a gang. If you're rich, who cares if your credit card gets hacked, your bank will bend over backwards to get that chargebackedJoin a gang. If you're a part of ICE you can drive drunkJoin a gang. If you're a highish ranking member of Mossad you can groom and rape goy children on American soil and only be named and shamed if caught (the status quo for pedophilia among the elite in the West for 3000 years now) and shipped back to Israel.

OpenAI solved IMO using a plain LLM, unlike DeepMind, who used a custom system based on Lean 4. Some myths that people are coping with (with answers):* AIs saw these problems in their training data -- No, OpenAI got the problems within minutes of IMO ending* AIs used a lot more time -- No, OpenAI's model had the same amount of time.* They used a boutique system designed for solving IMO problems -- Only DeepMind. OpenAI used a general LLM.AI is already smarter than you.In b4: spelling gotchas and image-based tasks, or people who never used top of the line LLMs like gemini-3-pro and gpt-5-high.

>>107634098The concept that a config could only be partaly invalid is new to you?nginx comes with config checks as well and tells you exactly what is wrong, and if it can continue, it does so while giving you a warning.Meanwhile cloudflares corporate Rust written billion USD nginx clone prints "panic" and dies.And thats the intentional behaviour with idio(mat)tic written Rust.Death is preferable.Their definition of "Memory safety" specifically excludes memory leaks, because memory leaks "only" crash and kill the system. That is okay. Availability is not a concern. Crashing is fine.
>>107634117>Did their nginx also also had set up hard limits on resources as their custom proxy?YesWhy dont you just read cloudflares report? Then you don't have to embarass yourself woth false claims.
>>107634117>yes, nginx behaved better and still worked, while Rust crashed, but but it could have rolled back!why would it?Auto-rollback is a very risky gamble.Tell the user what is wrong, while continuing to serve, is the sane behaviour.

>>107634173>And thats the intentional behaviour with idio(mat)tic written Rust.In both C and Rust you decide how you handle errors. There is no implicit error handling.>>107634207>why would it?Because you don't want partial or broken updates in large systems like this.
