I’ve been saying this for a while to people. I think the long term use case for LLMs is the semantic human interface device.

Siri,Alexa, even google home?(whatever they called it), they all swung and missed at this. However evening able to provide commands unclearly to a computer and get the intended result would be a huge win.

I know the big llm inference can do a lot more but the cost is high for systems with that ability to reason however small, lightweight llms are actually very good for command and control.

This where my current homeland projects are focused.

All your icons should not be the same two three four colors. It gets harder to distinguish one app from another. It all becomes noise functionally.

Does it work without a subscription?

The answer is Feynman

That’s a weird bug but I’m going to give it a shot!

Right and I agree. All my recent hardware purchases in the last 3 years have all been AMD.

I have SOME Nvidia hardware right now and I’m sure other people do too. Unfortunately, AMD is lagging behind in some key scenarios that will hopefully be resolved in the near future. AMD knows this and doesn’t compete in the high end currently (outside of Datacenter).

I do like to think that AMDs apus are the future and the death of the discrete GPU is imminent. I have been looking at things like the 395 AI MAX (poorly named CPU) for some testing but right now it doesn’t make sense to hop platforms financially.

Just my two cents. I personally own a lot of different gaming devices running different platforms. I don’t have an allegiance to one particular platform because::I just think they’re neat::.

I don’t think I’m unique in this case either. In reality it’s always been “use the right tool for the right job” kinda scenarios.

With that being said, open source platforms have broken into the scene in a big way recently. I built a bd790i/radeon7800xt system a little while back and it has become my primary gaming platform. It runs Bazzite and it’s always just ready to go with most (if not all) of my steam games running.

I basically use windows on machines running Nvidia hardware. Even on my workstation where Nvidia has basically decided their chosen platform is WSL2 and chosen not to embrace the larger Linux ecosystem completely (yet).

I do have a test box that constantly runs bazzite-dx where I am testing Nvidia compatibility. It’s getting REALLY GOOD. however I just had a set back where Bambu studio flatpaks do not render 3d objects anymore. Flatpaks integration with Nvidia is a major pain sometimes as it can break with driver updates. I’m really new to this but fltapak needs the driver as well as the base system and then the flatpacked application needs to support it as well? It seems cumbersome. I don’t have this problem with AMD GPUs.

Every one is else is doing piracy while I’m doing “digital content preservation”. These companies would happily send you a letter telling you to destroy all copies of a book In your house if they had the right to. You must resist.

I’ve felt that the introduction of micro transactions was the beginning of the end of videogames. There is no reason to push boundaries inside of an industry as an artist when it is so heavily commoditized down to your basic attention in seconds.

I think maybe we need a little history to understand how we got here from gaming meaning gambling, to pinball, to “video” gaming, to Electronic Entertainment as a whole to realize where the boundaries are supposed to be.

Deceptive business practices need to be put in check. Consumer protection needs enforcement otherwise there would still be lead in everything you touch.

Who needs artists pushing boundaries when it’s legal to sell heroin.

I think about this often. Follow me here because this may seem convoluted but I don’t have a better way of explaining it out loud. These are just my two cents.

There is a very consistent “power fantasy” that is delivered to men from early childhood. There is a core logical fallacy to all these power fantasies tied directly to their gender which is essentially a birthright to power.

The harsh reality is that there are no gender based birthrights to power IRL.

Instead of truly observing power dynamics, they create a coagulated malformed response which is to construct the thing they were promised (power by birthright). “Manosphere” content provides a framework of loop holes and logical fallacies to get them closer to the right to obtain power simply via subscription. The subscription process is mostly performative often via mimicry aligned role models. This aligns extremely well with fascist agendas and is easily exploited.

I’ve seen this manifest in weird arguments like “Women only have rights because Men give it to them” as if it’s some sort of kindness or a handicap in a sport to award others with basic rights.

Its all very gross

Came here for this comment 😄

This definitely seems like open AI wants to use us as a botnet to scrape the net for them.

Ironically they blame their own children too

Cool. I was just looking to see if someone had a guide because I’m trying to understand the pitfalls of doing it this way and I’m curious if anyone else has opened up Jellyfin to the world.

Does anyone have any helpful guides on setting up jellyfin with a certificate so they can privately host it while also keeping it secure and up to date? I think if using docker it would make sense to use compose and configure traeffic proxy and use let’s encrypt for certificates.

Plex takes care of this for you with their cert and authentication systems. I feel like if user management and secure authentication is easy to set up then that is the primary reason to leave Plex. If I can just hand out accounts to anyone whom I would like to access my instance with ease then my family members could easily access it.

If one was to host from the home, using something like tailscale to host it online with forwarding a port would also be ideal.

I saw this movie this weekend. It was ok. There were a lot of missed opportunities and unexplored plot points. The film consistently stumbles just to keep the pace up. It had enough story to be a limited TV series but it was condensed in a way that made it feel rushed. With that being said I enjoyed the acting and cringed actively as I watched on in horror at what effectively is unironically already the world we live in.

Bazzite is amazing. Pretty much all Ublue based distros have been the most painless Linux experience I’ve had in years. The biggest problem I think most users have is the Dominance of Nvidia graphics hardware. Nvidia does “work” but it’s much more unstable than the much more stable AMD driver. I bought an AMD 7800xt and I’m pretty much problem free now.

Since I have so many Nvidia cards I’m regularly testing Nvidia under Bazzite on a spare 2070super. It’s impressive but it’s not ready for average users.

I’m pretty sure the final version of Windows 10 LTSC 2021 had its window of support shortened to five years to align with the end of support. Only windows 10 LTSC 2019 has 10 years of support. If you’re using LTSC 2019 for gaming please be aware you will be missing any features released for windows 10 that were released after version 1809. This will harm game performance for a lot of newer titles and hardware.

Not yet. I’m just using RDP ATM. I’m thinking about trying out a small Intel arc GPU and moving over to looking glass.

I virtualize windows for certain apps like Wendell does at level1techs. You can use Chris Titus windows utility to make a microwin11 image for your VM and install Adobe into there. This is a power user solution.

Imo the Mac is technically cheaper than it’s ever been and a great alternative for a second PC.
