Well, it was nice ... having hope, I mean. That was a good feeling.
Glad to see he has a sense of humor about his movies being riffed. Rifftrax has done a handful of his movies and they're all good.
Just Peertube. I've been orphaned from my Mastodon instance and I don't think I'm going to sign up for another one.
I mainly use Llama-3-8B abliterated for everyday questions, and DeepSeek-Coder-V2-Lite for programming/Linux stuff.
As a Rifftrax fan, I never knew about Soultaker. But after seeing San Franpsycho, I'm open to seeing any Joe Estevez movie riffed.
My pet peeve is people downvoting in communities they aren't subscribed to about posts they aren't interested in. They just sort by new, and when they see something they don't like, they smash that downvote button without even looking at the post or contents.
Part of it is because we all have unlimited votes; people vote without thinking. It would be different if everyone had a finite number of votes to use. And you get awarded a few votes for making a comment or post. Maybe award extra votes for commenting in small communities.
This would serve 2 purposes. 1.) People would use their votes a lot more thoughtfully. 2.) It would encourage people to comment and post more.
The downside is that someone could set up a bot to spam posts and comments into a dead community just to rack up votes.
Most of the people who want to sign up for Lemmy are already here. They are technically oriented and don't mind dealing with the quirks of Federated platforms.
The commenter's concerns are valid. For a "normie" who's only used traditional social media, the Fediverse seems like a train wreck. I enjoy the Fediverse because I like figuring out new things and learning new stuff. Normies don't have time for that.
tl/dr: The average person will be very reluctant to use Lemmy.
Fatal error. I knew I was gonna mess something up.
Wow, I forgot he had that show. I just listened to it and I remember it now.
My apologies to anyone if I left out your favorite show.
Yeah, I realized Knight Rider is in the wrong place. I don't think I can change the pic once its posted.
Edit: nevermind, it let me change it.
Jerk can't keep his hands to himself either. I can't complain to HR cause .. you know.

Looking for upgrade advice. Anyone building their supercomputer out of 3060s?
(discuss.tchncs.de)
So here's the way I see it; with Data Center profits being the way they are, I don't think Nvidia's going to do us any favors with GPU pricing next generation. And apparently, the new rule is Nvidia cards exist to bring AMD prices up.
So here's my plan. Starting with my current system;
OS: Linux Mint 21.2 x86_64
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics (16) @ 4.673GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Lite Hash Rate
GPU: AMD ATI 0b:00.0 Cezanne
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
Memory: 4646MiB / 31374MiB
I think I'm better off just buying another 3060 or maybe 4060ti/16. To be nitpicky, I can get 3 3060s for the price of 2 4060tis and get more VRAM plus wider memory bus. The 4060ti is probably better in the long run, it's just so damn expensive for what you're actually getting. The 3060 really is the working man's compute card. It needs to be on an all-time-greats list.
My limitations are that I don't have room for full-length cards (a 1080ti, at 267mm, just barely fits), also I don't want the cursed power connector. Also, I don't really want to buy used because I've lost all faith in humanity and trust in my fellow man, but I realize that's more of a "me" problem.
Plus, I'm sure that used P40s and P100s are a great value as far as VRAM goes, but how long are they going to last? I've been using GPGPU since the early days of LuxRender OpenCL and Daz Studio Iray, so I know that sinking feeling when older CUDA versions get dropped from support and my GPU becomes a paperweight. Maxwell is already deprecated, so Pascal's days are definitely numbered.
On the CPU side, I'm upgrading to whatever they announce for Ryzen 9000 and a ton of RAM. Hopefully they have some models without NPUs, I don't think I'll need them. As far as what I'm running, it's Ollama and Oobabooga, mostly models 32Gb and lower. My goal is to run Mixtral 8x22b but I'll probably have to run it at a lower quant, maybe one of the 40 or 50Gb versions.
My budget: Less than Threadripper level.
Thanks for listening to my insane ramblings. Any thoughts?

Woman Stuck in Tesla For 40 Minutes With 115 Degrees Temperature During Vehicle Update

I had to take my GPU out to do some troubleshooting, so I figured why not try some games on the old Ryzen 5700G. Ray-traced Quake wasn't exactly playable at 3 fps, but I'm impressed that it could load and display correctly.
Other games I tried; Portal RTX wouldn't start at all. Spider-Man remastered did start, but I can't get past the load menu, not related to the Ryzen APU. Most of my library is 10+ years old, so pretty much everything else runs fine on the APU.
