Whist

In plain words

Whist is a browser that introduces cloud tabs, a feature allowing users to offload website processing to the cloud. When websites consume excessive RAM or degrade computer performance, users can activate cloud tabs to transfer that processing burden remotely. The browser is designed for productivity, video streaming, and remote work scenarios where system resources are constrained.

Whist is the first browser equipped with cloud tabs, which offload any website’s processing to the cloud. When heavy websites eat up RAM or slow down your computer, you can activate cloud tabs at the click of a button.

  Pornpen.ai – AI-Generated Porn▲711

  Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results. For comments/suggestions/feedback please visit…
