Try DxO Photolab if you have a mac

Better than Darktable?

Only you can decide that for yourself, I use both

acdsee is another one worth exploring.

acdsee, at least a few years ago when I was using it for large volume jpg commercial work, is fast and often good enough. The trickier stuff went for a spin in Photoshop.

Lots of photo editing workflows could be done in something like digital fusion which is free. You just have to use roto instead of painting masks, but the procedural graph workflow is more precise. It would also handle anything in a numbered sequence automatically so batch processing is trivial.

now , that's a name I haven't heard in... decades.

Haha, when I saw 30 years, I went to go read about it and its really impressive.

Actually they are following through, check the news

> They are highly distrustful in particular of people offering vaccines

FTA

> Our investigation suggests that unsafe practices are in part driven by systemic pressures including a reliance on, and cultural preference for, injections as treatment.

> Pakistan has one of the highest rates of therapeutic injections in the world, many of them medically unnecessary. Members of the general public ask for them, including for their children, and doctors happily oblige, says Mir.

Stop making shit up

Vax program is common knowledge, literally everyone knows about that, and it was an intelligence program not an execution campaign. Your conclusion is made up

GP is using "executed" instead of "lynched."

This goes back to the polio vaccination campaign started in the 1990s. Bin Laden op happened in 2010-2011.

Polio workers were being chased away and lynched longer that. [1]

Still happening BTW [2]

You're arguing against a straw man then. I didn't claim the "intelligence program" was an execution campaign against anyone but Bin Laden. The conclusion that it was a trojan horse, I think quite factual.

I did claim Pakistanis have executed vaccine workers ("circumspect people with needles").... because as I cited they have. In part because they have been used as CIA operations.


I like backblaze for backups, but I use restic and b2. You get what you pay for. Really lame behavior from backblaze as I always recommended their native backup solution to others and now need to reconsider.

But the 5090 can run Crysis

At this point in the broader dialogue your position is roughly as interesting as flat earth. Only bored people are going to bother replying and no one is taking you seriously. Don't do yourself a disservice by clinging to this.

Okay, give me one example of what AI might be useful for.

As a learning tool to quiz you.

Okay, and what value would that provide?

I'm not interested in games.


The value is that you can have an effective tool to learn something new. I'm not quite sure I understand your question.

Okay, I don't think it would be all that effective and I don't see how it could be.

I learn things by doing them, not by playing guessing games.


That's fine. We all learn different. But it's still effective for other people :) So it's useful for them.

Fair enough I guess. Everything I've seen that's presented as something great about AI just looks like something I'd pay quite a lot of money to avoid.

I think your wasting your time arguing with him bro

Oh I know :)

Moving my thumb across the image causes the ball and cube graphic to disappear to black and then scrolls the page. Firefox on iOS


Damn, I should have spent more time QA-ing that post. I'll try to patch it.

You did not miss much though: it just rotates the scene.


Me too, Chrome on Android.

I like the concept of applying Jax to SDF sphere tracing :)


that part is the system prompt, the script is a function that takes a prompt describing a shell command as an argument


But it's gotta be just a joke right? Which is why all the examples are just classic things you do with bash/unix utilities?

I'll just say, if not a joke, the bit is appreciated either way!
