Looks like a bunch of Vulkan decoders and filters have been added. Nice!

China already have a rich literary history, why does the west need to give up ours?

I'm sure AV1 will have it's time. But for now I'm preferring x265 HEVC for hi-fi video (movies etc.).

I too wish Opus got more love in the video space. Outside of YouTube and VOIP, it doesn't get used.

Shame since Opus is smarter with bitrate allocation with surround sound.

I don't know what model runs on Phind's site right now, but in August Phind published a fine tune of CodeLlama 34B

I have to thank this post for giving the clearest overview on DragonflyBSD to date.

Linked is the base model. What you want is the instruct model (also on TheBloke's profile), which has been trained on following instructions.

This is frankly the best benchmark you can use on an LLM.

Looking previews this past year. I don't like how clean all the maps look. One thing the Source versions of the game did well is it made the areas feel lived in and sometimes dirty.

I hope this can be improved on in future updates with CS2.

For those comatose the last 10 years. Valve never released a Half-Life 3 or Episode 3.

I would like to suggest anyone already into Boards of Canada to check out their demo tapes ("Old Tunes" and "Random 35 Tracks") which are on YouTube.

They are some of the earliest BoC tracks and probably sound the most like the namesake.

Maybe it's too basic, but GD Quest is working on "Learn GDScript from zero" which runs in a browser.

I wonder if Godot will become the best way to teach introductory programming to students?

It's very easy to create simple toys with Godot, because it has a Python-like scripting and good UI.

It's getting really bad. I've seen horrible voice dubs over Elon Musk keynote presentations advertising crypto in the YouTube ads!

Political videos on YouTube has the widest spectrum when it comes to quality.

You can get highly informative, mind-changing videos with 10k-30k views. And on the other end, hot-take, "debate me bro!" Twitch personalities with 1M-3M views.

That's the nature of it, don't see this on any other category really.

This is probably the reason Nostr makes an appearance in the policy then.

I suppose it depends on perspective. MC Alpha these days lacks performance optimisation, and cannot beat the extensibility of Minetest IMO.

I'm also a fan of Lain. Looking back, I think it's best if you watch Neon Genesis Evangelion first, and then go into Lain with the expectation that half of the scenes were inspired by the trippy introspective scenes in Eva.

As someone who watched Lain first, I found it much harder to follow as half of the scenes were distinctively dream-like and weren't "happening".
