  • Does anyone else have experience with koboldcpp? How do I make it give me longer outputs?

    Jump

  • llama.cpp uses the gpu if you compile it with gpu support and you tell it to use the gpu..

    Never used koboldcpp, so I don't know why it would it would give you shorter responses if both the model and the prompt are the same (also assuming you've generated multiple times, and it's always the same). If you don't want to use discord to visit the official koboldcpp server, you might get more answers from a more llm-focused community such as !localllama@sh.itjust.works

  • Looking for FOSS Games

    Jump

  • It's a functional programming language, so you have to think quite differently when using it if you're used to imperative programming languages (e.g. C++, Java, Python, Basic). I learned it at uni and it was quite fun, but I wouldn't know how to write a larger project in it.

  • Any "undiscovered" games you think deserve more attention?

    Jump

  • I initially wrote 100, but when starting to look through my Steam library I realized how few games had that few reviews. All the indie games I thought might be borderline unknown turned out to have 5k+ reviews.

  • Is there an app where to mark games that I want to play and have played? Like goodreads but for games?

    Jump

  • I use https://www.criticker.com/ for movies because it has a really nice recommendation algorithm based on your personal scores. They also have a section for rating games but I haven't tried that part

    Jump

  • No and I hate it :( Even if there are a few legit review sites still around it's near impossible to find them among all the fake reviews being pushed by search engines

  • Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked?

  • It ought to be mandatory to write this out whenever talking about Linux. I've seen more than one person bash Linux in a public forum "because it has digital rights management built into the kernel" after they've misinterpreted some news headline.

  • Can I remove a git repo without resorting to rm -rf ?

    Jump

  • If someone is careless, they should create a wrapper around rm, or just use a FM.

    I think that's the situation OP is in.. They don't trust themself with these kinds of commands, while other commenters here are trying to convince them that they should just use rm -rf anyway

  • Maybe they're afraid of accidentally writing rm -rf folder/.git /* or something

  • Can't update/remove/install on Fedora because of "no disk space"

    Jump

  • That output means that it did something, but I suspect there's a risk the same thing could happen in the future. I run this command every now and then in an attempt to avoid fragmentation, especially if the disk has been close to full, but I'm not entirely sure what's causing it to happen in the first place.

  • Can't update/remove/install on Fedora because of "no disk space"

    Jump

  • Don't know that much about how btrfs works, just had a problem with the same symptoms as OP a while ago.. Things started failing due to "no space left on device" despite df reporting several gigabytes available. Took a while to figure out what was going on but eventually found some stackoverflow/reddit post that told me to run the balance command and it worked. Just a single drive with btrfs, no raid.

  • Can't update/remove/install on Fedora because of "no disk space"

    Jump

  • If you're using btrfs then you might need to rebalance it. I had the same problem, i.e. "no free space" while tools like df reporting that there should be available disk space, and it confused the hell out of me until I found the solution.

    See manual: https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Balance.html

    This are the commands I run every now and then, especially if my drive has been close to full and I delete a bunch of files to make more space:

     
        
sudo btrfs balance start -dusage=10 /
sudo btrfs balance start -dusage=20 /
sudo btrfs balance start -dusage=30 /

    The / at the end is the path, since it's my root mount which uses btrfs. The example in the manual does 40 and 50 too, but higher numbers take longer time, even on an nvme ssd.

  • 7 Common Linux Myths You Should Stop Believing

    Jump

  • What does this "the basics" consist of then? I would've thought it was something along the lines of installing the OS, connecting a printer, installing common software (productivity suite, games, etc), setting a desktop theme you like and browsing the web, but none of that requires you to learn how to use the terminal.

  • 7 Common Linux Myths You Should Stop Believing

    Jump

  • Maybe it's changing now with Windows 10/11, but I think historically Windows has had just as difficult learning curve as Linux. People who have complained about Linux being more difficult than Windows just thought so because they had already spent years learning how to deal with Windows, while if they switched to Linux they would have to learn new things. If someone who has used MacOS 100% of their life were to begin using either Windows or Linux then I don't think there would be much difference in difficulty.

    I've come across plenty of bugs and usability issues in Windows, and despite having 10+ years experience with the OS I sometimes found them very difficult to solve, often requiring copy-pasting cryptic texts into the command prompt and/or regedit. I also think troubleshooting on Windows is made worse thanks to them writing witty things like "oops, something went wrong!" instead of actually giving you a useful error message, some many issues are of course unfixable due to its proprietary nature. At best you get an error code which you can look up online, but the OS is not made to be debugged by the user.

    In the past Microsoft had really good support which you chat with, but the last time Windows refused to authenticate after an upgrade all the human support appears to have been replaced by automated troubleshooters. It got stuck in an endless loop of "run local troubleshooter" -> "you should try rebooting" -> "run online troubleshooter" -> "you should try rebooting" -> "back to the local troubleshooter again". At work I still have a help-desk I can call with people who have taken countless hours of Microsoft trainings to get certifications.

    just so I wasn’t choosing between 100% and 200% scaling. That’s just beyond the average computer user.

    So if I understood you right, Fedora lets you choose either 100% or 200% scaling but you wanted more options than that? I.e. you wanted to overcome a limitation of the OS, rather than having to fix something which was broken? I don't think the average computer user could do something similar in Windows. For example when I got my work computer with Windows 11, AFAIK there was no option to only show the task bar on one monitor, so it was always visible and taking space on all monitors. IIRC Microsoft added this feature last year, but I think it would've been extremely difficult for the average user to find a way to find a way to do it before that.

    Guesstimating 99% of the Windows users I know would just accept that kind of thing like "it's annoying, but this is how computers are". I have friends, family members and coworkers who use Windows, and I've found them all to be extremely forgiving towards computer issues.

  • My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

    Jump

  • My wife and I gave a Linux computer to a friend's kid. I think I used something called Grapejuice to install Roblox, which ran perfectly for about a year. Then it broke because they wrote a new game client or something, but the kid just said "it's ok, I'll play other games instead." Best Linux gamer attitude :)
