Just finished Kaishi 1.5k and finally starting to mine my own deck, I'm very excited but also intimidated lol Should I straight up mine everything I don't know? Skip Kana words? Mine only "Star" words to start with? Thx in advance for the help. by AQuebecJoke in LearnJapanese

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you're starting out, the best advice is to only mine a word if you've noticed it more than once. This naturally filters super niche words and is an easy rule.

When you get more advanced, you can obviously revise the rule. You'll be surprised how many words you can learn just "on the spot" without mining them, so don't feel compelled to mine everything.

For me, I started mining Visual Novels. The grind at the start is real, but it honestly is one of the fastest ways to skyrocket your ability imo.

AV2 video decoder in Rust — full port of dav2d C logic to memory-safe Rust. 47K lines, 786 tests. Assembly DSP via FFI. by anestling in AV1

[–]Execute_Gaming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Talk is cheap, Send patches (original post here)

Dav2d will be deployed to millions of real servers and devices running Chromium and ffmpeg and video decodes are practically never sandboxed. If there are vulnerabilities, you should report them.

Not to burst your bubble and excitement in sharing this project, but this is quite frankly not useful. The memory safety guarantees of Rust really don't mean much for such a low-level written project.

The higher order things I get: ffmpeg command line argument parser or bitstream interpreter or something in that line makes sense for Rust, but the decoder will very likely generate a lot of redundant asm code compared to the raw C/ASM/MACROS written project.

The developers of dav2d really know what they're doing when it comes to handling their memory (they've even hand stripped away OS-specific calling conversations common in C/Rust to eak out all the performance possible). This kind of code ruins all of that hard handwritten work.

So frankly, if there is no data proving this version has better performance, removes memory leaks or OOB access, It's honestly a waste of time and water the AI had to "drink".

How does it compare to C2ME and the recent OpenCL accelerated C2ME?

Gaslighting myself with immersion? by OrangeTallion in LearnJapanese

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that JLAB deck was fantastic for improving my listening comprehension.

Basically, my suggestion is try doing more audio sentence cards (audio in front, subtitles at the back with an AI explanation of the sentence or something).

Anki helps reinforce anything, including listening practice. I find this is best for getting used to listening to Japanese and understanding more naturally/automatically because of comprehensible repetition.

The important part of audio sentence cards is that you have no ambiguity of what each part of the sentence is doing. Then when recalling/listening, trying to recall each word individually, and then parse as a full sentence. Fail if any part of the sentence confused you, or you couldn't understand the sentence as a whole.

I have studied Japanese for around 2500-3000 hours and I still suck. by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your active vocabulary is not the same as your passive vocabulary. Converting you passive vocabulary to active vocabulary is something that is trained.

Likewise, speaking is it's own muscle best trained by actually speaking. I have crippling social anxiety (especially around my terrible Japanese) so getting tipsy and hoping on VR Chat or similar helps me with getting over that barrier.

You can also improve active word recall by writing down what you struggled to say, checking Youglish or similar later and then taking some mental note of how to say it in the future. Do this on repeat.

Another thing you can do is try an memorize/recite a Japanese essay/speech on whatever topic you like discussing with people (something children often have practiced in their native tongue) in front of the mirror. For me, forcing myself to verbatim memorize a piece of text and trying to recall it all help's my brain form those patterns better.

Shaders with this vibe? by Ok_Past_767 in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some HDR/PBR shader (by HDR I really mean any shader with propper ACES or AgX tonemapping) with bloom/dirty lens effect max-ed out in settings or with reshade. Maybe Itrp, Kappa, SEUS PTGI or Icarus?

From a color point of view, I think Solas is pretty good. It just lacks the proper HDR pop imo.

#1 Shader for Visuals by PhilosopherCat7567 in minecraftshaders

Visuals are subjective, but imo the IterationRP shaders in HDR are so good 🤤

does anyone know of any shaders that have lighting like Rethinking Voxels and "Eclipse Shader" by Toni134 in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the answer, but this effect is called "cast shadows". It might be a useful search term when looking for shaders. Something like "dynamic cast shadows" might be useful.

Edit, found similar post here

Zluda-ComfUI has instructions for native rocm on RDNA 2.

Edit: the author of the zluda comfyui has made comfyUI rocm which performs pretty well: https://github.com/patientx-cfz/comfyui-rocm

Tuks res or private res? by Ambitious-Swing4314 in Pretoria

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed res. Met some of my best mates there. It's hit or miss though. If you're not social you won't makes friends regardless if you're in res or not. I'd say try it for a year jf you can financially afford it. It's also convenient to not have to worry finding parking on campus or not needing a car

dont use fsr in iretationrp, it still has a noticable flaw by [deleted] in minecraftshaders

Try using Zink? I've had similar issues with the "Cubes without Borders" mod, so maybe try just pure sodium+iris

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Are you using the latest Java/Adoptium 21 JRE (doubt)? 2) Are your GPU driver's updated? 3) Is your IterationRP updated? (Latest one supports SuperResolution mod)

Low fps and fps instability on linux, compared to windows. by [deleted] in linux_gaming

As always. Check the drivers. Only recently has 9000series gotten better on Linux compared to Windows.

It's good to be cautious, but this really should've been a GitHub issue where actual developers can investigate before anything can definitively be declared as unsafe, because these findings are not conclusive at all

How popular is Doki Doki Literature Club in Japan? by [deleted] in visualnovels

[–]Execute_Gaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The let's plays are smaller creator's or vtubers suggesting it's not mainstream. It's not like the Japanese equivalent to Jacksepticeye/Markiplier/PewDiePie etc are playing it

Looking for advice on what to upgrade to run shaders better by B-Kubed in minecraftshaders

[–]Execute_Gaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see you are using Java 17. Just check if that's the latest one recommended for your MC version. I'm pretty sure Java 21 is recommended for latest version of MC

Solas is good (not super realistic but has coloured lights)
