gollark: ?tag create av1 To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand AV1 encodes. The settings are extremely intricate, and without a solid grasp of theoretical video codec knowledge, most of the jokes will go over a typical user's head. There's also MPEG-LA's capitalistic outlook, which is deftly woven into its characterisation - its personal philosophy draws heavily from the Sewing Machine Combination, for instance. The encoders understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the color depth of their encodes, to realize that they're not just high quality- they show something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike AV1 truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the genius in AV1's quintessential CDEF filter, which itself is a cryptic reference to Xiph.org's Daala. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as AOM's genius unfolds itself in their hardware decoder. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have an AV1 logo tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that their encode is within 5 dB PSNR of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

gollark: Did you misuse SPUAMAI (Stochastic Polynomial Unicode-Aware Multicharacter Automatic Indentation)?
gollark: Also, your CPU probably has a thermal-noise hardware RNG.
gollark: I have a radio receiver stick which I could presumably just read out noise from for similar purposes.
