    Are we quantifying the fidelity of AV1 right?

    I've have been pondering about it for some time now and there is a reason for it. When I compare my animated encodes frame by frame, I see that some frames come out with blurry mess but others come out better than HEVC at equivalent quality. So am I supposed to compare not still frames but frames in motion to quantify the fidelity in AV1? Or is that an area where the encoder still need improvements? I've also experimented with temporal filtering on and off, sometimes it looks better, other times it butchers the fidelity.

    This is not about difference of opinions. You're sending a very wrong message with that oversimplification. There is no such difference for Nazis.

    Let me say it in another way, by silencing the Nazis, you are erasing their footprints, hence making it easier for them to evade serious attention and live peacefully in their own little bubble.

    If I was an employer, I would never know one of my employee is a Nazi.

    This entirely depends on how limited your perspective is. A limited perspective leads to more negative actions and an open perspective leads to more affirmative actions. 'Organized Groups', who influence others to think like them and believe what they believe, are results of negation.

    Monetization of such content is questionable for sure, but I'm affirmative about what he says about the propagation of such extreme views. Simply being unaware about such things won't make them go away. People should know who they are and why they are so we can deal with them better. There's alot we can do better but can't do because of limited awareness and our own negative attitude to deal with them.

    Which only makes sense, trans are the most sus even within the LGBT. Its a broad category of mostly nonsense identities or simply just people unable to cope with how they are born and lamenting over it and passing on that stupidity to children. There are trans who act and blend like any other human being but most are just plain psychological disaster. The unnatural spike in identity disorder proves it.

    For me, they both lose details the same way, AOM is just higher quality and compresses even better, neither of which is feasible for personal use at this time. I have some hope for rav1e but it is not mature enough and also missing many features, so not using that either.

    I use that everytime with film grain. Also without grains I always noticed blocky patches around the edges (which can still be found but much less) in many of my encodes.

    This is what I usually use -yuv420p10le -preset 3-6 -crf 18-32 -svtav1-params film-grain=8-20:film-grain-denoise=0:enable-overlay=1:scd=1:scm=0

    My experience of using AV1 so far.

    I've been experimenting with AV1 using FFmpeg with SVT-AV1 for 2 years. I've encoded quite a lot of my videos in AV1 by now, mostly just animated content. AV1 is really good for an open source project, no doubt about that. But after so long using it, I can safely say that it is really just good for storage saving with excellent quality-speed tradeoff, however, it lacks fidelity. My major discontent with AV1 has been how the encoder blurs some details completely out even when setting crf as low as 14 whereas HEVC doesn't at all. **Edit:** Also in some instances, particularly with non-animated videos, AV1 performed way worse than HEVC which I believe is due to it doing a poor job in varied and difficult scenes. At first, I thought AV1 is only better for animated videos but later I found its really just any video so I've switched back to using HEVC for storage and decided to use AV1 only with preset 6 and fast decode on for mobile devices. I don't mean to say that AV1 is bad, it does provide better quality than HEVC for sure but I wouldn't call that an upgrade when HEVC still has the major edge in fidelity. It makes sense for VOD services to make use of it but personally, I wouldn't use it for anything except quick and super low bitrate encoding.... for now.

    Do you miss the old Firefox UI design on Android?

    Mozilla redesigned the browser 4 years ago. At that time, I was expecting this change for the best, making Firefox as advanced as Chrome, if not more and more intuitive while still retaining the simplicity of UI, is what I thought. 4 years on and I still can't make myself go back to FF. I miss the old simple UI. You could choose any extension from the extension store and personally, the best part was theming which is all gone! The browser is now all clustered. And Mozilla is still using the old screenshots of the browser in Play Store, I wonder why.

    From what I heard, Manjaro is very unpolished. The devs do weird stuff with the OS and their decisions are questionable if I'm not wrong. I think Manjaro isn't as easy and stable as they advertised.

    Regarding Endeavor OS, they say it is Manjaro done right.

    The default is 35. My rule is to use 4 points greater value than the CRF of x265. However, AV1 isn't good with fine details, so consider using lower CRF accordingly if compression isn't affected by it much.
