  • Yeah. This was obviously wishful thinking. It was also my knee jerk reaction to jumping on to AI with minimal research. I figured that it would be better suited for the whisper tts/stt but it just didn't run well. Then I attempted to throw HAOS various other versions of nix and that's when I threw in the towel cause the bootloader seems to do a sig check on boot. If it's not the Nvidia image it just hangs. Oh well. I now have an old comp running good enough to experiment with the likes of llama mixtral on just a 2070 with on average 2-3 sec delay. More if I ask too big of a question.

  • Yup bought the nano thinking it would be good for a home assistant plus some AI voice processing stuff and was severely disappointed. Not only is it slow but you are basically locked into Nvidias OS unless you know how to mess with bootloader's.

  • Again freedom of religion includes freedom FROM religion. And these nut jobs. The big difference is that sane people are willing to allow these people to believe what they want but they (religious extremists) are intolerant of others thinking differently from them.

  • No.

    Sand to wafers… Fortunately, there is no shortage of raw material. Silicon is the second most common element in the earth’s crust, comprising about 26% and exceeded only by oxygen at 49%. But silicon does not occur naturally in the pure form needed for electronic applications, for which it must contain less than one in a billion non-silicon atoms. The starting material really is sand. Not just any sand, but silica sand, specially quarried for this purpose and having concentrations of quartz (silicon dioxide) as high as 95%.

  • As someone who is not religious in any form besides childhood indoctrination, all I can say is jesus fucking christ. Our country needs a purge of religious extremists. Do your fucking thing. Let me do mine. Don't push your beliefs on me. Freedom of religion also means freedom FROM religion.

  • Ha! You think the American public has the backbone to take anything by force? Not fucking likely. Corps will utilize law enforcement who are already militarized. Large part of the bell curve of the population can't even think for themselves let alone coordinate to do something productive. They haven't got what it takes to stand up for themselves. They think they do but they don't. This goes for both sides of the 2 party system.

  • Replacement level for whom? To sustain the current population? Population growth? Status quo? Corporations?

    Not sure any of these things are needed to be sustained at the levels we are currently at.

    Someone please explain the detrimental repercussions of not having an equal to or greater than replacement level.

  • You could say that with most any hardware. You could have a dedicated server fail and have your network be down till you got another instance up or have a "fall back" kick in.

    What makes Rasp Pi so much more unstable? If anything a couple PIs are definitely a cheaper solution compared to other hardware like you are suggesting?

  • Reolink is a Chinese company. Not known for their privacy. My experience with their cameras is the quality is meh and their software is even more meh. It amazes me how often they get recommended. I guess it's due to their cheapness.

  • You can already do this. There are plenty of vids that show you how and it's pretty easy to get started. Expanding functionality to get it to act and respond how you want is a bit more challenging. But definitely doable.

  • This statement is so wrong. I have Ollama with llama2 dataset running decently on a 970 card. Is it super fast? No. Is it usable? Yes absolutely.

  • I mostly agree with your statement and we should be aware of both.

  • Probably not a well received opinion but the amount of China promoting drivel that goes on here in lemmy is astounding.

  • Thanks I'll give that a try!

  • A reasonable societies only recourse to a nutjob, gang member or not is to hold the person down and wait for the police to show up?

    And your reference to "after the shooting" implies that the shooter just blasted a few people stopped and put his gun away and started playing cards or some shit. Not that the patrons that stopped the idiot could be the reason that "after the shooting" happened at all!? I will never understand the mindset of this bubble you live in.

  • Too bad the damned thing is so hideous.
