Ok, give me the money

I have 4x8tb drives that have way too many hours on them

Hard disks will always have demand, we need more every day and they have a limited lifespan

If you look at it right now the only reason you don’t have home AI as a commonplace solution is because the manufacturer has chosen not to sell it to you.

And memory shortage. By buying up all RAM they ensured that you can’t run much more than lobotomized models.

Other manufactures will arise then. Won’t be quick, won’t be painless, but the US is not the whole world.

I mean I do bring the phone into the bathroom to listen to music, but I use it with a bluetooth speaker and it stays on the sink. Why would you even bring it inside the shower? Capacitive touch screens work like shit when wet.

Many routers also support this, I did this with my Mikrotik Hex S.

Faster than using the hotspot as well

With home assistant we usually monitor a smart plug: instant power goes above x value -> cycle has started, power goes (close) to zero for x time -> cycle has ended, send notification. In my case I raise a flag value that reminds me periodically to unload the machine until I confirm that I’ve done it

LLM = AI
AI ≠ LLM

It’s more a matter of practices rather than product. Microsoft killed the competition with every underhanded tactic they could use, they atrophied the PC ecosystem, the damage they’ve done is incalculable, and now that they don’t have the same power anymore, it seems that doing damage is still their main objective, dedicating even more resource to achieve it

Microsoft Is the worst thing that ever happened to computers

so many linux puns are coming

And talk to who? You (and I) and the 0.001% can ham it up, but the rest of the world will be living in a different bubble.

And just talk btw, no bandwidth for anything else

Holy shit yes, OP you should make it

Whoa there agent Smith

I’m italian so I guess it depends on when on the timeline they plucked him

well if you w98bsod you don’t need to reboot

Me: I never update. My immutable distro downloads new images in the background and they get mounted next boot.

Yeah I was lucky to buy a 6900XT when it was near the lowest price, so I sold that and added a couple hundred for the 7900, seemed like a good future-proofing move, given the times we’re living in.

I think Apple silicon is faster than my generation of Ryzen, but the newest (Strix something?) with the LPDDRGGFASEWARGH5 memory should be faster yet. Of course buying all that memory right now would be quite painful.

So I have a framework laptop with ryzen ai cpu that uses 48gb of shared ram, and it does run Q4 llms fine enough, but I’m not sure it compares to a real GPU.

On my desktop I have an RX 7900 XTX but I’ve only dabbled in image generation so far, so right now I couldn’t really tell you the difference.
