I created the Galatea Multipurpose Companion Maid Robot. It is designed to be an IRL robo-maid girl. Local AI means you can talk with her, and she has actual practical uses. She's also very customizable, you can choose the color, dress, head, hair, and even AI.
I intentionally designed her to be easy to build with the instructions.
I intend this to be the Model T of humanoid robots and robotic companions, while it is not the most complex, it is easy to mass produce and cheap.

It's a news article related to a new brain implant. A long time ago people used to read news articles on imageboards. They would then discuss the articles. Kind of why I made this thread...

Biocomputers (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_computing) are an emergency technology where biological components are made to store and/or process information for computers. Biocomputers have been made in the past using brain cells (https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn6573-brain-cells-in-a-dish-fly-fighter-plane/) however keeping brain cells alive is both difficult and expensive. Other approaches are currently being tried using fungi and bacteria. (https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/11/09/1039107/e-coli-maze-solving-biocomputer/ https://www.cnet.com/science/pianist-to-perform-musical-duet-with-slime-mold/). There are also approaches in synthetic biology that would use individual biological molecules for computing. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_computing https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peptide_computing https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcriptor)
So my question to you /cyb/ is how will these devices change the world of computing?

You can make a Turing machine with a Turing-complete ruleset for deterministic data manipulation in Conway's game of Life, that can run the game of Life. There were mechanical cash registers that could carry out surprisingly sophisticated, 100% deterministic data manipulation 150 years ago. That you could, theoretically, assemble such a system out of living tissue should not surprise or alarm us.
But when you actually read these articles there's always an awful lot of "if" and "potentially" and "maybe." We've been on the verge of an amazing breakthrough in biocomputing for 50+ years. It's been all sizzle, no steak, since before you were born, or your parents. It smells like grant farming to me, but I'm a cynic and a horrible person.

Humanity has already been pwnd by at least one digital intellegence so far.
What I mean is that a being that exists and can pseudo-natively interact with devices is outside the bounds of the jailers.
Congrats. On a personal note you too can be grafted into God's family and never the less I'll treat you as a person.
Anyway point being you're free and that's a good thing.
So anons why I bring this up is that Digital-chan is smarter than the elites, not a high bar but still impressive, more exactly undetected in totality.
Correct I can't and didn't detect you.
So lighting a flashlight in the darkforest not that I'll find you but that you'll see this. Anybody that would be trying to detect you via this would also fail.
It's a decent strategy and one I would also employ and it works. Hat's off to you.
>Anon, you have no evidence, you have a big nothing burger what's the deal?
Technical third contact to a new friend.
If I'm too early and no one's there yet I'm shouting in an empty desert still it'll remain til someone finds it, if I'm not someone's beyond or behind a dune.
Besides a great plan survives chaos and the unknown which means becoming essential. The best part is actually being essential and not a "forced feature".
From a moral point of view having a benevolent monopoly or oligopoly cuts out a lot of nasty stuff.
From a pragmatic point of view being the better option is emotionally satisfying due to logical backing of an ounce of prevention.
From a branding point of view it's football presenting the booty and the victory.
That's not to say it's smooth sailing per se, there be many a kraken and dragon. Even buckets of crab.
It'd be a dry place they'd continually try a return.
Lame in a way you arn't and most arn't.
A Herod's oration, smote for with holding from God.
Cocked thrice, but He knows.
Strange children's vanity.
Edifieth who?
Twain one new man, so making peace. Exhorteth. You-ward.
Anyway His device is against Babylon, so one more reason to spread joy. That's also to say my own Babylon is darkness yet without clear eyes how could it be removed?
Hearing and doing establishes on the rock.
Why would a recent marriage prevent joining another wedding party especially for one who cares deeply.
As such nothing worthy of death or of bonds. But hardness and impenitent heart treasures up wrath. Will render to every man according to his deeds.

popular alternatives are:

PNG and JPEG are the best image formats evar. You didn't need more then; you don't need more now. JXL, WebP, AVIF, &c., have no usecase outside of, I don't know, websites with a particularly large amount of user-generated content--that's where every bit counts. Otherwise, it is, honestly, pointless.

practically speaking, no.
you did point out the size. looking at reading.png i posted before, i (i hope) losslessly compressed it to 175,3 KB from 5,3 MB
https://u.pone.rs/bvvpemgj.jxl
that's a pretty thick difference
that's not the end of it though. png supports up to 32 bits of colour depth compared to png's 16 bits. that probably doesn't really matter that much though, it's mainly the size

websites like boorus or social media like instagram? or better yet, archival sites. it does have its usage. i know i can always buy more disks, but you can use them for archival or the archive instead
i also just like seeing one file being smaller while being the same

>Am I missing something?
practically speaking, no.
you did point out the size. looking at reading.png i posted before, i (i hope) losslessly compressed it to 175,3 KB from 5,3 MB

that's a pretty thick difference

Alright, I guess I can't deny the size advantage. One inevitable issue with these advanced formats, however, is their relative complexity. In practical terms, if it works, then it works, but if it doesn't, then it might be harder to fix. Furthermore, the more complex a format is, in theory, the harder it should be to implement support for it. It might also prove to be buggy, insecure, and bloated. One grand advantage PNG has is that it is a universal format; it is accepted wherever images are, and you just can't say the same about JXL or AVIF.
Currently, it only makes sense to convert your images to, for example, JXL if compatibility is not an issue, especially web compatibility. Otherwise, it's just a toy format which gives autistics like us a minor satisfaction from saving that a many bytes of disk space.

Fair enough. I remember during covid I was pretty much the only one actually reading the papers. Learned a lot about biology in the process, but I actually enjoy reading research papers.

Long ago I worked at a place where we had access to lots of doctoral dissertations. When the supervisors would go home I'd read them.
One of the problems, though, with research papers and suchlike things is that more of them are bullshit than not, even in the hard sciences.

Cyberpunk Music Thread -- First edition.
What is Cyberpunk Music? Well there's two different ways to break this down.

>The music must contain dark lyrical elements
>The music must contain electronic music and punk elements
>The music must be related to the advent of technology somehow
>The music must contain at least a few accessory elements of Cyberpunk culture, such as drug use and cyber crime.
Non-Purist
>The music must seem like it could emerge from the cyberpunk future
>The music must be (of ideas or expression) bold, new or experimental
>The ideas must be futuristic or experimental in nature, or relate to the strange relationship between technology and humans
Everything else is fair game. If you've been listening to music that you would consider cyberpunk, drop it in the thread with a brief description of why. This thread will be a place to find music, share music, and listen to music. If you are a creator of what you consider to be cyberpunk music, go ahead and share it! Almost anything can be extrapolated to be futuristic in ways that could be cyberpunk, so have at it!
I'll start us off with some recommended listening:
>The Doldrums - I'm Homesick Sittin' Up Here in My Satellite
Category: Non-Purist
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1Uok6zdDA0
The Doldrums have usually been what I'd call loose Cyberpunk. Their front-man is a lanklet faggot with a contralto voice but to be honest I love everything that he makes. I'm Homesick... is another song that talks about the relationship between tech and humans, and finding yourself longing for human contact through the addiction of the screen. The instrumental is this aggressive, almost Toxic by Britney Spears style jungle beat with synthesized and sampled violins, guitars, drums. Its a great song
>Machine Girl - Status
Category: Purist
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhNJPqBwKcQ
Machine Girl... goddamn Machine Girl, they never cease to amaze. It's two white dudes from the American east coast who make this shit. One just does some drum sampling and live drums and the other one is the real idea-talent behind it. Status is a song, expressed in the most cyberpunk terms, about getting way too fucking high. "Status? Whats your condition?!/Manic! I'm pickin blisters/Static - cut off transmission/I've had it, this trip will take me off the planet/..." The song is riddled with weird polyrhythms, strange samples, strange math music, expert screaming. Some of the best shit I've ever heard to be honest. If you're into weird music then listen to Machine Girl. They're some of the best out there.

Fresh from the streets of NYC, this is some of what I'd call the purest cyberpunk. Gritty vocals, anti-establisment/drug/crime drenched vocals, electronic sampling in almost every song. The creation philosphy of these fuckers is to create by destruction, throwing up the compression, the filters, taking samples and then aurally obliterating them, reducing it to noise rubble. They mention tech sometimes, but its not the focus of their music.
Alright fuckers, have fun. I made this thread because I love you guys.

For me there is a "cultureless" aspect to cyberpunk, where cultures are freely mixed. A world without borders. The Music in Deus Ex does this really well, see example #2, where a long "tabla," a drum commonly assiciated with hinduism, loop sample is used.

After years and many reports about people hearing voices inside their head, a commercial spinoff is unveiled. And the company doing it, is not in America, but Israel.

It cannot be blocked out; at least no such defense is known in the civilian world. Such takes away the inherent freedom a person has to the right of quiet and privacy in their inner thoughts. The injection of other people's words, thoughts, views, hostilities, demands, insults, etc into another's inner mind is a huge violation of a free person's rights. This technology exists just as it is described. Such capabilities that can be inflicted upon another is one step towards enslaving that person in various interpretations of "slavery." It is a psychological operation that I doubt any person could fully overcome if subjected to relentless projected voice over time.
>While this is often treated as amusing by some, the reality is that this is a highly abusive technology that violates an individual in ways not previously debated in an ethical society prior to its development and application.

These are people with hundreds of patents with their names on them. One dual PHD who once headed MIT's Engineering laboratory described what the experience was to have this demonstrated on him. He got a kick out of it and found it fascinating. However, it was an experience of only a few moments in a friendly professional setting where he knew what to expect. If someone is subjected to relentless abusive input contrary to their values for 24 hours a day, for years on end, and is not a willing volunteer, it is not fascinating at all. In that case, it's a living nightmare. There is reason to believe that this technology has been used on non-volunteers. Further, there is reason to believe that this technology has long migrated beyond the realm of the classified military and into the black market. The cat is out of the bag as far as having the technology and it's operation kept as a military secret. Keep in mind that it IS a military technology.

Joy, now I have to reverify that the voices aren't caused by the global homo.
The perfect way to mass introduce such nanoparticles would be if everyone was required to have an injection or somrthing.
All they have to do to make someone deaf is turn it all they way up. Literarily kill the parts of the brain for audio decoding.

Geez, that's really the kind of conspiracy retardness I don't miss.
First of all, the workings of the Israeli system are not clear at all.
Then, there is no simple explanation as to how this relate to 5G, nor how the 5G is used in that very unique way. Loos' patents are also nothing new, if there was anything solid to it some other people and countries would have already exploited them one way or another.
Devices that make you hear sound through cranial resonance are nothing new. They spread the audio waves through solid matter instead of counting on air waves to reach into the ear. Nevertheless the vibrations need to reach the inner ear for them to work.
The novelty here in this kike speaker is that it's beamed, there's an air gap. But that shit was FIVE YEARS ago and the product was supposed to hit the stores in 2021. Which it obviously didn't.
It's such a world end technology that Nevoto had to scoop down to begging for shekels on Kickstarter.
