In 2014 I wrote a book where I predicted that the Internet would damage an entire generation of kids and young people.
People laughed at my ideas and said I just wanted to restrict freedom of speech.
Now, parents all over the world are screeching "why didnt anyone warn us about Tiktok? why did Tiktok ruin our kids?"

I hate being the only one who sees ahead. Now I'm warning you about AI.

>In 2014 I wrote a book where I predicted that the Internet would damage an entire generation of kids and young people.
And you were wrong.
It's social media what's damaging kids, not the Internet.
Also, in 2014 the Internet was basically already dead, and no meaningful change has occurred since then, so you "predicted" absolutely nothing.

My point exactly. By making pedos the scape goats, parents can dodge responsibility 100%
You point your finger at lonely incels so that parents could dodge all the blame

Pedos are a boogeyman. They’re extremely rare in real life and the only reason there’s so much mass hysteria around them is because it’s easy to grift and make money from pedo hysteria.

>what's a reasonable start stop count number for your case of 2400 power on hours?
Really depends
Acceptable would be definitely less than power on hours
A good number would be ~hundreds of times, usually from a desktop pc
An ideal number would be ~tens of times, usually from a workstation/server that ran quasi-continuously
If it's a laptop drive you may see 10k or 20k because they got firmware settings that makes them spin down a lot to save power but not that great a drive's long term fitness.

This is kind of a binary thing, either sus or not, just make sure it's not retardedly high and it's fine. Make sure it corelates with what the guy said he used it for. But many people overlook this.

For example I wouldn't buy a 3.5" drive with 2400 hours and a 12k start/stop count, something is wrong there, like what did the guy do? Had it in a 24/7 chinkshit USB enclosure with dodgy power management settings?

Let me guess, they are WD red or.some other consumer drive?
You can get large enterprise HDDs with 40k hours with minimal start-stop count for a fraction of what they originally cost.

I've been getting lonelier lately, and I remembered how much fun i had as a kid posting here on 4chan (yes, as a kid, I started using it when i was 13, now I'm 19)

nowadays however, no fun at all, everyone takes things too seriously and would rather talk about things that make them mad instead of things that make them happy, you know what I'm saying?

anyways, I want to know, that right now, in 2024, are there any GOOD altchans? years years years ago I tried stuff like meguca, heyuri, sushi, that yuyushiki one, whatever, they all sucked for differing regions, but posting on the kemono party one to complain about the website being down reminded me of how comfy imageboards can be.

what im asking, again, is, are there any fun ones? not based around dumb shit like wizardchan, but also not honeypots like heyuri, im not using ironypoisoned ones like the sharty or that /bant/ one either

Keep in mind that OpenAI's implementation is even more filtered (and quality wise it doesn't appear to be much better, except for the fact that they don't encode the pictures in subsampled JPEG).

The style field in BIC EDIT script can be used for *some kind* of img2img exercise, if you keep the output resolution to 1024x1024 and just try to add details or something in the field, but it's much less flexible and the output picture gets filtered again (which can make your life a pitiable misery, I've really used it occasionally in this way). And of course neither just allows you to post your own pictures and pass them through the AI, if that's what you're looking for. You can only edit pictures generated with Dalle3 in the first place.

Do you agree that we need to hold back on developing these overpowered CPUs/GPUs and focus on improving energy efficiency?

https://www.techradar.com/computing/its-time-for-amd-intel-and-nvidia-to-call-a-truce-on-the-performance-arms-race-and-focus-on-sustainability-and-efficiency

>For consumers who are barely tapping into the performance that an Nvidia RTX 4080 Super brings to the table, much less what an RTX 4090 or AMD RX 7900 offers, you have to ask if this kind of performance is worth the cost in terms of carbon emissions.

>And of course, this is only in terms of useful work, like video editing or gaming, and not for something like cryptocurrency mining, which has at best a marginal social utility, and whose cost in terms of energy usage in the aggregate far outstrips any practical benefit cryptocurrency has (unless you're really into criminal activity or need to launder some money).

>Regular old processors aren't immune either, with the current generation of Intel processors soaking up an extraordinary amount of energy. What you get for that energy draw is some incredible performance numbers, but for 97-98% of users, this kind of performance is absolutely unnecessary, even if users are using the appropriate processor for their needs.

>As hard as it may be to hear or accept, these three chipmakers must acknowledge that we don't have a performance problem, we have a sustainability problem. They should turn away from squeezing even more performance out of their hardware that we don't need, and give us the efficiency that is desperately needed, especially when these marginal increases in power are coming at far too high a cost.

>Some power users and enthusiasts might not like seeing decreasing power usage while maintaining roughly the same level of performance gen-on-gen, or slightly better performance but far less than with previous generations, but it's what needs to be done, and the sooner everyone acknowledges this and adapts, the better.
