JPEG XL

It's designed to put you in the box.

It's mind control.

you put yourself in the box

It's a whole bunch of presuppositions you are expected to take for granted so that your thinking is constricted.

maybe you should do something about it

I am by talking about it on discord :)

😒

Trying to make that special part of the brain tingle

The part where mental freedom lies

there is no mental freedom

The state of mind where you aren't constrained by the assumptions and programming you're expected to have and afraid to discard.

your thoughts are the result of the collection of information that you have consumed

it's not possible to not have any bias

you knowing about the media is enough to be considered influenced by the media

to the extent that government is “control”, it’s control that we all abide by the laws that we have collectively come to implement

But it is possible to become aware of and throw away presuppositions and assumptions that have existed for a long time without merit

not really

you can't suddenly start understanding that pain is not bad

the mere existence of a government doesn’t tell you what to believe, just what to do

religion, institutional or not, is an entirely different beast

You can suddenly start to understand anything.

you can change your opinion on it but you will always understand it's bad

Government does indeed tell you what to believe all the time. I fail to see any distinction whatsoever between the two

Government is itself a deeply religious and dogmatic conviction.

what does the swiss government tell me to believe?

that pashifox isn't chatgpt

that if I don’t pay my taxes, they’ll come after me?

I think that is factually correct

They tell you that they are righteous and necessary.

I mean, only the Swiss government actually appears to function the closest to ideal.

they must have missed my letterbox when they distributed the memo

And actually being kept in check by the courts.

That it is worse everywhere else and you are privileged to live on their blessed and exalted land and to be allowed to tend to it for your exalted masters

And to think otherwise is treasonous and ungrateful

I’m pretty sure no one from the government told me that

ProtonMail didn't get its wings clipped off at the end.

are you equating general societal beliefs with “the government”?

pashifox take your meds

that would certainly let you blame it for all sorts of things

There isn't a pill for what I have I'm afraid

The biggest lie every government or Lord tells their lowly serfs is, how they have a righteous reason why they are your rightful Lord and why you must obey them by some essentially divine principle.

And how necessary they are

How much you need them

why are they not necessary

I refuse to explain that.

I think the burden is on them to explain that...

but they do

Maybe I just wasn't satisfied with what they told me...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument

I think it's because some lady handed a sword out of a lake to someone way back when and I supposedly consented to all this since I was born

I dunno, it all sounds like "shut up and obey" to me

yes you live in a society

doesn't look like youre thankful for anything

I am very thankful that Master allows me to breathe his air and tells me I'm a real person :)

well this was fun

I try to have fun

i'm usually the one who says we should nuke africa but it's interesting that there's someone who's worse

Some say too much fun

See, that's why I say it's a religion. Because if you don't believe in the religion of government, you are worse than wanting to nuke Africa.

And I'm probably going to be cut off from God-vernment forever now, and not saved for my sins

And then I'll never get an official piece of paper with my name on it that says I'm a real person

but arent you participating in a form of government by participating in this chat?

Sorta. I mean this chat is governed but at least I came here knowing that.

And they aren't telling me how I consented to this when I was born

and nobody's saying you can't just go live in the jungle

Or how I owe them taxes

An intriguing offer...

you do choose to live in the society

Most of the time, no, you don't.

Most people don't have a choice.

Never get asked, just told to obey

just dont

??

ez

but that's another argument

Shut up and stop complaining, be grateful, don't you know it's worse everywhere else? That means any complaints you have about how it is here are automatically null and void

whether living in the society is better than not living at all

the popular one for that is abortion policy

hmm your ideas are political...

youre beginning to sound like a politician

I think it's pretty funny the things people get told to turn their brain off. :)

Don't you know how bad other people have it? They're jealous of the freedom we enjoy here in our prison... I mean society.

Just whatever you do, keep fighting amongst yourselves instead of uniting against the jailers

Keep the heat off them

> politics has accomplished its goal of stealing your mental energy I just want to pop in and say that looking at this conversation is stealing my mental energy, so I'm muting it.

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/930464689882808360/979224270213349416/eujfz61ibg191.gif

Well, that would actually be a good example of taking my advice.

Protect your energy :)

maybe yall should start a thread in this channel or something

I'm trying to prevent people from thinking politics is bad

vote!

but yeah this is brainrot material

Politics is indeed bad. The entire premise should be ridiculed and laughed at

same sentiment as anti-vaxxers

this can be dangerous

esp. on a platform like this

lol. lmao. So, anyways... nice full moon tonight.

Perfect time to be a little loony

i cant see the moon

It's... round.

And you're probably a lunatic if you're staring at it instead of proving your worth to society.

:)

i'm all for the dumb convo on porn server #15 since I know everyone is being ironic

but here I can't tell

Get back to work! \*whipping noises\*

waiting for compile anyway...

here have some fun content instead https://mastodon.social/@geerlingguy/111141304157539494

i hate pi sbc

it's a massive upgrade

they added a power button

and they moved the ethernet port back to where it was on the rpi3

oh, and a dedicated uart port!!

Lunatics like myself don't usually go to places like this to talk about their loony ideas...

Usually left-handed discussion is done in more sinister channels

I'm trying to practice how to sound less condescending when I talk.

I would like to be nicer.

I think the main thing is to just talk less

And try to genuinely be more receptive.

It will take lots of practice...

Discord seems to be affected by Cloudflare problems

Using the app it still seems to work

(on my phone)

The desktop app / website doesn't work for me though

are you on Linux too by chance? multiple linux users reporting the same issue on av1 discord, not effecting them when they swap to Windows.

it's happening to multiple people on Windows

interesting

I'm having the issue on linux desktop app, but no issue on browser or phone

they're aware of the issue, apparently

Discord font rendering even on Chrome Mac isn't something amazing to see

I have a fork of this font newer font of today

But it isn't amazing at all even with the original

this topic is following me

This is autism

I understood only this and I also have it and I'm schizo with 71% paranoic thinking

Ok readed all

That font is burning my eyes

You understand that freedom is a mental state, and that people will always recreate the same system of control and slavery unless the way they think about themselves and the world changes first?

Are there _any_ video editors that support **all** video containers/formats? I'm shocked to discover most of them support only avi. mp4 if you're lucky.

Kdenlive ?

no, and I doubt there ever will be, however editors like olive of kden do support the majority, if not the totality of what ffmpeg supports

to support all containers and formats would be such a colossal undertaking it's not even funny

do you mean something else than the usual failure to initialise OpenGL as is typical of GPU driver updates until rebooting?

I have rebooted, and by crash I mean the GPU stops working until another reboot.

oh.

the linux driver for amdgpu actually has re-init support these days, but whatever changed in this update is causing it to hard fault

Maybe I should get an Intel graphics card

i think the next gen ones will be pretty promising

Discord app still using ICO in bitmap format? PNG ICO is supported since Vista. I doubt Discord runs on WinXP anyway.

Discord is a very incompetently put together "program" so I am somewhat unsurprised the downloadable version of it does not even take advantage of features introduced in Windows Vista

it feels weird to think that Vista is almost 17 years old

https://tenor.com/view/old-man-gif-4679601

it’s as old now as Windows 98 was when Windows 10 was released

(or Windows 95 - Windows 8)

and this is from almost 40 years ago: http://toastytech.com/guis/moremac.html

(Windows around the same time: http://toastytech.com/guis/win1984.html )

Around Win 3.1 it was when Windows started to be actually usable.

http://toastytech.com/guis/winvistastartmenu.png I kind of liked this “glassy” look

I miss it

(the glass more than the gloss)

Heh, that reminded me of the VarDCT/Modular mixing example image, of a desktop with a load of windows open and a clock

Windows 11 still includes Vista boot screen. It's used if Windows fails to set the video mode used by the regular boot screen.

I've seen that when I was running a very old video card in Win11.

I still have my Windows 10 play the Vista startup sound

Win11 really had no idea what to do with that S3 Trio graphics card, so it was running in a basic VGA mode 640x480 4bpp. The Windows GUI was using 16 shades of gray instead of the classic 16 colors though.

The Vista / Win7 / Win10 startup sound is the only Windows sound that is not easy to change. Instead of being a regular WAV file, it is compiled inside DLL resources.

Fun fact: There's a commented out flag define in the Windows SDK that tells whether the display mode is grayscale or not.

I guess grayscale mode is only used as emergency fallback on ancient cards that can't handle VESA well.

The graphics card has some VESA support. It's probably missing the video modes that Windows expects. 1MB of video memory is not that much, that really limits what resolution and color depth the card can do.

Windows needs VESA LFB support and at least 640x480 with 32 bits per pixel. I don't know if 24-bpp is enough.

Vista/w7 aero glass mode was my favorite. I can't stop thinking about it when it was released. I was addicted to that shiny glassy title bars, progress bar and icons. xD

it was especially the blurry transparency for me

How thing have changed, Windows versions before XP didn't support VESA at all and required specific graphics drivers.

consumer versions of Windows before XP were DOS-based, though

I think VESA was not supported in the NT branch either.

Anyway, I have another fun fact. Windows 11 still supports 360kB 5,25" floppies, It can read, write and even format them.

Of course I had to put JXL images on this ancient storage media as well.

Yes. That's the main reason. Blurry glass is the best!!!

to an extent, there is have been a plethora of 3rd party drivers throughout the ages

Well now the question is how many images fit and what do they look like?

You know, it depends on the type of images, single photo in 1280x960 at d 1.2 fits the floppy snugly. Simple 16 color images can be handful of kilobytes in size. The floppy can store lots of these.

Something like this https://github.com/Panda381/DOS-Progs/blob/main/HRY/MALUJ/PREVIEW/MALUJ.PNG PNG 7965 bytes LS WebP 6434 bytes JPEG-XL 3784 bytes

As a bonus, CGA/EGA images can be losslessly encoded with 2 bits per color channel.

my bag: has visible weave pattern

me: looks jpeg

me: this is your brain on image compression

Align the bag to the 8x8 blocks for perfect compression ;P

I quite like the bassline here

I think the bassline alone isn't that interesting, but in relation to the harmonic development it becomes very interesting

often there's some mild harmonic "friction" that really makes the bassline stand out

made a professional audio installation -- two resonance speakers on top of the violin bridge, making the whole violin as a loudspeaker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEBtRHhgb5Q

supplies: violin, two $5 resonance speakers, oscilloscope cables for quick hack binding, a plastic back and some paper trash to help the speakers to self-balance on top of the bridge, a dog-plaster to keep the speakers together so they don't fall off

I plan to create a custom bridge for this purpose, more elegant and effective for transferring the speaker's energy into the body of the violin

what happens if you don't play paganini pieces but handel trumpet concertos ? 😄

nice setup but I feel so bad for the violin ! 😫

I bought the violin for this use, so this is it's primary use 😅

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAukqp4AdaA image compression using neural networks with faster decode speeds.

Pretty sure I mentioned this when the paper came out, but it was a nice surprise to see a video on it eventually

Some clearer screenshots from the paper

https://research.nvidia.com/labs/rtr/neural_texture_compression/

this graph shows that AVIF outperform jpeg XL on the PNSR score

At around 1bpp or less

I consider lpips to be significantly more relevant 😛 although not so sure on the higher end

Interesting that they repeat the neural network can store all mip levels at once, even though JXL should be able to just store squeeze/progressive levels for that

The fact that they used PSNR is disappointing

Yes this is awesome only on lpips

And anyway won't replace av2f and avm

And orif is the base of avm

Theres lot of explanation of it in the Stanford talk

https://youtu.be/7kgbj0dBL_M?si=cBh10OWO9jMMy1p_

Though if you don't follow the first twenty minutes without skimming anything you can't understand that

I have new settings for AVM not cpu 0 but anyway slow

Fab you are very well read

well, how was AVIF compressed...

cpu-used 3 is good...

although cpu-used 2 in my experience does actually substantially improve efficiency at low to medium quality, just at a rather high cost

anyway, that's really impressive then

The new Apple M3 Max has as many transistors as an Nvidia 4090 and an AMD 7950X put together.

oxipng time????

could probably make it a lossless WebP at max effort rather then a optimized PNG

doubt it's above 8bpc or above 16K in res

actually now that I think about it, this isn't a website it's the browser itself it could be a JXL

or even better not have it at all

that works as well

ultra optimzied to 0 bytes

make it lossy AVIF

no. N3B fucking sucks. That's probably why they have so many different chip SKUs to choose from. They have to be really aggressive with binning to have enough chips to sell.

what is Apple doing... or do they have a very robust design where they can just deactivate many defective parts of the chip...

just compress with mozjpeg q10

if they want high quality they gotta put some effort

actually why are we talking about efficient porn image compression delivery again

<:SadCat:805389277247701002>

I take no blame for this

that is fairly common. Intel and AMD design that way too. Most of TSMC's recent fabrication processes have been very reliable, making this less needed, but making chips modular enough to disable parts has always been common.

makes sense, and should often be easily, like with individual cores that only share few ressources

with such a big cache it's a bit different of course

Via... Methods... The only public file is 1280x934, so they specifically went out their way to make sure people get some high res butt by pulling it from Patreon too

It comes up more often than you think, I remember a full day spent discussing how progressive can be used for booru thumbnails

And unfortunately that doesn't apply to us all, half are dead broke half are spending 10K a month

Why don't everybody use chiplets? It's not actually a new idea, chips made of multiple dies were used already in 60s and 70s before production of bigger dies was possible.

chiplets have drawbacks

for example, AMD's chiplet-based laptop chips have bad idle power consumption compared to their monolithic laptop chips.

e621 mods still using vmaf for quality measurements: <:trollhq:1059276598660059136>

Intel has started using "tiles" which are similar to chiplets, but not in all products yet I think.

I first read chicklets and I was wondering were this discussion about furries where going to

Apple has their massive dual die "ultra" line

speaking of booru type sites it seems like quite a few (or at least one in particular I know of) is/are wayyyyy too focused on nsfw which I find pretty upsetting because people draw and create artwork that is not nsfw, yet ill see a nice piece of artwork then go see what else the artist has made but the majority of the results will be nsfw with only a minority being sfw then ill go and find whatever site the artist in question originally posts their work on and see troves and troves of sfw artwork not present within the booru site, to a certain point it kinda feels pretty disrespectful to go and submit only the nsfw pieces of a creator and almost nothing else, but maybe that's just the archivist in me speaking? I mean do others not see a problem with this or is there just a lack of care from types of people who upload to some popular booru sites?

Some booru-sites are heavily NSFW-focsed.

Derpibooru is an example of a booru with lots of SFW content.

Yeah. If I recall all companies are using chiplet oriented designs now, just not in every skew

me forever thankful i dont live in the US

far from the worst choice, really... at low quality it's definitely the best for video

Me neither, but England isn't doing so hot right now anyway

its VP9 + Opus, iirc 8-10 minutes at 99MB?

i forgot

i aint checking it again

usually in that case, the upload is focused on the tag

the seo disease is spreading

the purpose of boorus is tagging afterall

Yeah, WebM uploads only with a 100MB limit. They can set the quality however they like though

I wish more Boorus had search capabilities like Derpibooru

what do they have that others dont

most don't have boolean searching, right?

meh

`(tag1 OR tag2) AND tag3`

oh and it was a cakeinferno upload bro is making pixar level CGI animation for porn and making big bucks 😭

In the case of SFW/NSFW alts I think it's a case of laziness and considering the NSFW as "More complete" since it usually has more details drawn. In the case of very few images from the gallery, not all boorus can do bulk uploads easily, especially with minimum tag requirements so you're forced to spend a few minutes per image instead of pressing upload and letting others help

from an uploader I know, what they often do is archive a tag from a site and upload that

but yeah also sfw is boring

Less dies (or dice or whatever) is always better for power and heat efficiency

Yeah, that's kinda a sign that it's a crappy "I don't care" website that isn't complete about making a backup of someone's work.

I also think it's bad when a website takes down everything made by an artist because they suddenly changed their mind about having it there.

It's too late to change your mind about sharing something once when it's shared.

I remember one time seeing someone take down their entire online presence including all of their work from every single website (including requesting takedowns of their work from websites where you couldn't delete stuff directly) and disappearing, seemly just because their GPU died

Yeah, people can suddenly snap and request everything be deleted but that's unreasonable to ask everyone, who make backups because they enjoy it.

It's always a real pain when artists do that, "Thanks, now instead of just using a tag I have to use some broken search function with 6 variations of your name"

tbh you should never export gif from an editor, better to export a good quality video then use something like gifski

Isn't it a bit weird that to get jpeg resolution info we have to read almost whole file instead of the first 10-30 bytes?

correct!!

I bought a second cello from alixepress, also broken during shipping like the first one -- I will have fun time fixing it 😄

I'm hoping to create a small string orchestra with the electronic speaker system 😄 I'm thinking of 4 first violins, 3 second violins, 2 violas, 2 cellos and 2 double basses -- (violas are the most difficult to find used/cheap)

I need to do something to my study room to fit it in 🎻🎻🎻🎻 🎻🎻🎻 🎻🎻 🎻🎻 🎻🎻

today I received 20 W resonance speakers -- I hope they will be more impressive/linear than the 3W speaker demonstrated above

"Jpeg xl competing with avif image format" -- midjourney loves image formats, I think

Because violist are scarce 😄 and will never give away their instruments to be torturred in switzerland !!! never !!!

https://www.phoronix.com/news/AOMedia-IAMF-Audio-Spec People already angry at it for being yet another audio format, although it apparently is the only open one with proper 3D audio support.

yeah I wasn't clear in my reply and I think I added confusion, so I cleared it up, I was a little confused about what people were talking about but the tldr is that it does supprt ISO-BMFF encapsulation. and MKV could probably support this at some point. https://aomediacodec.github.io/iamf/#isobmff now what Im not sure about is if the iamf track can use the normal audio tracks as a sort of additive layer or not, havent read that to indepth

seems to be only a container format, not a big deal if the codec remains opus 😄

it's not really, it's a bunch of things, it defines a couple OBU. One that is designed to denote how to mix audio elements into a single "Immersive audio signal" (3d audio), a parameter OBU that denotes the specifics of the previous audio obu (duration, gain etc.). it denotes the IA sequence (the order of obus and whatnot) and how to encapsulate it in a iso-bmff container, so mp4 m4a etc. of the supported codecs, it supports opus, aac, flac, and pcm

*officially*

the spec is set up in a way that honestly any audio codec will *probably* wind up working

AAC support appears to be only for AAC LC.

Wikipedia claims that only the latter variant is used commonly.

aac-lc is the most commonly used variant

I don't know how well it fares against MP3 as well.

All online results don't point out which AAC codec was used for comparison.

*comparisons

aac and opus demolish mp3. it's really hard to do audio metrics in general, but for a good point of reference at 320kbps mp3 sounds fine but on good sound systems people can somewhat reliably tell it apart from the source. for aac and opus at 120kbps people usually cannot tell apart opus/aac and the source unless they have a really good system. and at 192+ i've never actually seen anyone pass a blind test

I typically encode movies and music at about 96kbps opus

I've actually been using 64kbps with opus on archival recordings and can't tell the difference. In comparison aac was highly degraded at 96 when sounds reached into the high end

yeah thats when you would start to want to use things like HE-AAC and xHE-AAC

is it mono without much high freqency content?

Stereo with mostly talking with occasional gameplay/general content. I'm surprised at how well it seems to do even then

At the very least, AAC at 96kbps caused large distortion at high frequencies and Opus seems to degrade gracefully regardless of frequency

yeah AAC and Opus are both good across the range, with the main difference that AAC is split into profiles like aac-lc he-aac xhe-aac for the lower ranges you need to use a different profile

I mean that AAC failed at the high range cutting out or distorting sounds while Opus worked perfectly, unfortunately no option to change the profiles in OBS without using command line arguments which I'd rather not dive down another rabbit hole for

OBS only supports AAC because xHE-AAC needs a licence and he-aac hasnt been added to the libfdk-foss yet. well you also have the issues of aac-lc being one of the only supported codecs for things like rtmp

it would sure be nice if the enhanced rtmp spec would add support for opus

it could be interesting to see the variance in bitrate – could it be that Opus used a lower bitrate for the talking parts, letting it get away with higher bitrates for the more general content, while AAC used a more stable bitrate throughout?

That could change with rock

As you know that 2014 rock is con full of those heavy autotúne

With the practice you can hear it even wIth ffmpeg opus at 64 kbps from today

Or like the netgear opus build posted today in hydrogenaudio

And there are some people who can extend to wave audio

Usually 134 kbps opus is said to be compatible with every encoder

Opus supersedes aac

In speech recognition I have a 06142023 build and at 128 kbps is better than mp3

I find rock compresses well with opus 🤷

I don't know i need more testing like you from 120100 to 131200 you always prefer opus for rock

But I can have a different opinion

- slow script using arbitrary precision math library to exactly calculate an Optimal parameter for a library's alrogithn to over 20 digits - look through the library's source code for the parameter - it's a single-precision float

AVM A3V III

After ai generated if you want write bitrate like 80kbps

Just got my discord account disabled for some reason after solving this...

"disabled" as in logging you out?

Had to change my password

it forced me to

It made me do that after trying to friend request you, I solved that puzzle then it logged me out

that's really odd. have you been sending out a lot of friend requests recently? maybe that could be the cause? I have no clue

I'm not sure

it asked me the same trying to join this server

also <@245794734788837387> Am I allowed to ask for help with reverse engineering here?

I assume you'd know the rules better than I do

this server is pretty casual so I would assume it's fine as long as it's not for some nefarious/malicious purpose or done on something that is highly protected by some entity/company

hmm

Does reverse engineering a shitty image codec Samsung uses count?

https://dexrnzacattack.github.io/QMG

that sounds fine and it's also image format related which is a plus since this server is about an image format lol

Cool

Do you know anyone that'd be able to help out?

We got the boot animation version (QM) and the static version (QG) to decode but there is another... SPR

plus the animation decoder we have has dwarf symbols

although I can't really guarantee you will get help for reverse engineering questions in here as I'm unsure if it's really a field that people in this server are focused on or really do at all but I guess that goes for any server that isn't directly about something that involves having to reverse engineer

I mean if I go to an actual server about reverse engineering then I'd have to be real experienced

or atleast I think

unsure if this will help with anything but I found this repo which has some qmg files made with "Samsung Theme Designer" https://github.com/U2EZNeko/Nethunter-Bootanimations-SamsungQMG

I know about Samsung Theme Designer

wait

not the best choice of letters

I also put something into <#809126648816336917>

I am getting crashes with exiv2 0.28.0 but 0.28.1 works fine for me.

<@754484719306932244> hi

<@485504221781950465> High

which one do you think is the best

can we have philippe noiret instead ? I always dreamed to revive his voice

https://9to5mac.com/2023/11/16/apple-rcs-coming-to-iphone/

cringing whenever "compatibility" is mentioned. it shouldve been deliberate use of non-standard functions like honest people pointed out during internet explorer's monoculture that disregarded users' free choice

i wouldnt mind if a web service communicated this way with their own native app but standards-compliant functions should be served to browsers with regard to the lowest common denominator to simplify implementation and maintaince

how do you mean...

still wondering when *anyone* will be able to use RCS is *any* messaging app outside Google Messages on Android

Well, Samsung Messages has RCS (but not E2EE)

makes sense since e2ee is a google extension

everyone just uses Google messages anyway

Hmm they renamed chat features to RCS chats in the settings

https://youtube.com/shorts/G739J_irLVg?si=mw3c_L6QWjlua9J-

I once downloaded the RCS reference document to see how hard it would be to get a proof of concept going and as it turns out it's very much designed to only work for major corporations

"Google doesn't play politics" https://www.androidauthority.com/youtube-reportedly-slowing-down-videos-firefox-3387206/

didn"t notice that, yet I use firefox and firefox mobile

Video doesn't play

Neither on reddit

Works fine for me.

Instantly hahah

Is 0,4 second slower

Midori latest time I used loaded av1 without 0.001s delay

It's not talking about the video playing after the player loads. It's talking about the partially loaded components you see while the page is still loading. When Firefox user agent is seen, they found code that times out the page loading. That timeout does not trigger when a Chrome user agent is seen.

it was found that it's because of the presence of ad blocker

not because of non chrome

That's because mozilla's "official position" actually seems to state positively that jpegxl has less merit than webp and avif and that it's their opinion it should not be used since they already support AVIF.
