This is exactly the kind of stuff that Neural Networks are good for.Meanwhile everyone in the West has seemingly stopped using Neural Nets for anything genuinely useful, or interesting,
to the point where I feel like "AI" or "Neural Network" are now synonymous for BigTech's latest "inventions".
There is this Project that I came across a long time ago called "Neuroph".It's a pretty cool educational tool where you can create and play around with different kinds of Neural Nets: https://neuroph.sourceforge.net/"AI" doesn't have to stand for ChatGPT.
Even just playing Solitaire all day until you're fatigued is better than this drama shit.All this e-celeb stuff is way over my head. My mind is still tuned to the pre-Smartphone Internet lol.
Eclipse 15 years ago was OK. Decent Debugger, useful Plugins (like WindowBuilder). It had issues, but instead of focusing on those they over time just kept
piling crap on top of it.
The company representative didn't provide any more details on the Fenghua No.3 during the launch event, only that it features a home-grown design from the ground up. The Fenghua No.3 is also purportedly compatible with Nvidia's proprietary CUDA platform, which could open many doors for the graphics card if it holds true.
Based. I hope their drivers (at least the non-CUDA layer) will be FOSS and that they release low-level documentation.
Off topic, but I yearn for a Graphics Card that I can just simply program without any complicated or limited abstractions.
It boggles my mind how people still recommend Brave as a good browser for privacy.The entire point of Brave from the beginning was their own Crypto currency that they wanted to shill.In their early days they offered a bunch of Tech YouTubers some crypto (via affiliate links) in return for them shilling brave.
Brave is basically just yet another Chromium reskin with custom branding, extra tracking and crypto bullshit bolted to it.No, the builtin AdBlocker does not make it "worth it". Stop recommending this pile of crap.
Can't wait for thousands of useless refurbished NVidia cards to suddenly show up for dirt cheap.Keeping an eye out for discounted rack equipment, my homelab could use an upgrade!
Every thread here about veganism ends up like this.Ironically, browsing lemmygrad for a few years has given me a negative bias towards vegans and veganism in general.
Older Hardware can be pretty decent if you know what you're doing. However, many projects (even FOSS that are more hobbyist) are making decisions that make their software harder to use on older hardware. For example, everyone's desire to switch to zstd is terrible for people on older hardware, since it was designed around more recent CPUs. It's noticeably slower for little gain on older hardware, yet they love to parrot the "That's just how progress goes"-line while shoving highly curated benchmarks into people's faces to "prove" that $LATEST_THING from silicon valley is "superior".
Arch Linux used to be really snappy on all of my Hardware out of the box before they went all in on zstd. Now I have to go out of my way and put in a bunch of work just to get back at least most of that performance.
Even if Lemmy was run by a piece of shit, anyone could just modify the source code and make their own version.
Plus, Lemmy is an implementation of the ActivityPub Protocol, and there are many Projects out there
that speak ActivityPub: https://fediverse.party/
You can think of ActivityPub as being similar to E-Mail; It's not like Gmail Accounts can't send messages to
Accounts on Outlook or vice versa, they can, because they both speak a common Protocol that predates both of those Providers.
People on Mastodon or Pleroma Instances can follow Communities on Lemmy and can read, favorite or repost Posts like this one.
Packaging legacy drivers isn't really a solution. I have a literal stack of older NVidia Cards (some are even Quadros)
that are just Paperweights because:
NVidia's Proprietary drivers suck dick and were never really good.
Since the NV Driver is Proprietary, you'll be stuck on an ancient version of Linux or FreeBSD (the Kernel version that NVidia compiled it for).
Forget Vulkan, OpenCL, Wayland and decent Hardware Video Decoding support unless you're lucky and your "legacy" card is recent enough for the driver to support at least some of those.
I'm really annoyed by how FreeDesktop/Nouveau developers only keep chasing the "latest and greatest" when
there is a lot of existing Hardware out there that has only had half-assed support for at least a decade,
but for some reason no one cares. Seriously, everytime I read about updates related to Nouveau or Mesa it's never
about older Hardware anymore.
Does anyone out there still use a 32-Bit Computer as their daily driver? The most recent 32-Bit hardware I've used as a Desktop was an RPi3 and running a modern web browser on that thing would almost cook the chip.
I'm really disappointed by how bloated the lemmy frontend has become. Like, if they just cut the hyperlink preview/embed features that nobody needs it would already be a good bit lighter. There used to be an alternate lemmy frontend that emulated being a phpbb forum that was unfortunately abandoned: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmyBB
Also there is lem.el for emacs which works but it's kinda basic and rough around the edges.
Honestly, if I was in charge of lemmy it would look basically like the site linked in the OP. And I'd also think about making it accessible from gopher/gemini.
