A/B testing images is fun for me... don't ask me why. I don't know either.

@icedquinn
On beach I do notice a slight decrease in the typical jpeg artifacts around edges (in some places), but in exchange is shits out artifacts everywhere else. There is a decent file size decrease, but it's just not worth it at all.

@icedquinn
I'm looking at his other examples, and it still doesn't look favorably for his script.

soccer looks good, but there is no significant difference in size, and they look the same anyway.

I did find a small visual improvement in satchel, in a very small area, but the ruined background is far more jarring, and would distract too much in a normal viewing the notice an improvement in an area the size of a small coin. Same file size though.

He doesn't give a png for these others. Just q85 versions from other encoders.

Seems like a waste of space. I'm not seeing anything of use, just a rediscovery of what jpeg is supposed to do in the first place, and what other formats surely improved upon already.

We need to ditch jpeg, not try to retrofit useless algorithms that barely do something, and when they do, they worsen the image.

@icedquinn
Here's the thing that perplexes me... a lossy image compressor already does what his script is supposed to do. It looks at an image, to see what areas are more detailed, and require more bits, and which can get by with less.

@icedquinn
That "adaptive JPG Compressor" is a complete joke.
His preview image weighs in at 196kb, and has so much destroyed details in the hair, and smudgy, blurry compression artifacts in the background, that it's not even funny.

I downloaded his preview png, saved it as 92% jpeg in Gimp, takes up only 116kb, and still looks better in every way.

Either he fucked up his preview images without realizing, or his script is a complete farce.

>jxl gets blurrier
This is why I'm curious how much you're compressing in the first place, cause I find webp blurry even at >90.
Jxl is quicker to get to a blurry mess than Avif, but I had to go way down to achieve it.

@icedquinn
I'm curious what webp encoder you found that is competitive with jxl. I mean sure, you can get any lossy compressor to get incredibly small file sizes if you sacrifice quality, but when having decent quality is your first metric, I'd still rather use jpeg over webp.

Milo is an in denial gay man, that loves black dick. What do you think is going on? The moron is in love.

No fucking way...

Jesus christ! I've told you before to be careful not to post these things publicly! Just call my phone to ask, like a normal person!

@kilostere
Somehow I doubt it.

@PhilSchedia
If the i7 is ram upgradable, get the i7 8gb, and upgrade when you can afford it.
If ram upgrade is not an option, get the i5.

You ever took them seriously?
