I want someone to prove his LLM can be as insightful and accurate as paid one.

Are you using LLMs as search engines?

Bold.

I use Gemma, LLama 3.2, and Deepseek to either fix formatting, summarize documentation to give me commands for Linux software, and write simple code structure for me to refine into working code.

Sure it takes longer to generate than a cloud compute would, but

1. privacy obviously. I know you dismissed it but that’s really the biggest reason anyone will have.

2. this feels better environmentally. I actually don’t know if that’s true, but it objectively touches less computers for such simple tasks. It would be wasteful of infrastructure to do it over the web.

3. it’s just cooler to have a conversation with my computer. I’ve learned a lot about how the whole process works and that’s more valuable to me as a non dev than just getting the end results.

My “production” home lab is 3 Optiplex 3050 with i7-7700. They work great and are pretty low power.

Its how you can tell PDP fans weren’t paying attention. He promoted it a few times but it didn’t gain any traction and he abandoned it.

Or maybe it just didn’t help with the fascism allegations from the bridge moment and the Fiverr incidents since those all happened about the same time.

Hell, he had Ben Shapiro host an episode of LWIAY. Sure it wasn’t peak genocide apologizer we have now Benny Boy, but he was still a verifiable dick head grifter.

Bethesda game runs like ass

That’s not news

You got into Self Hosting for unreasonable ideological reasons

I got into self hosting to avoid AWS Fees

We are not the same

That was among the most brain rot tier shit I’ve ever seen.

He’s also promoted the books of fascist talking heads like Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Steven Crowder through his book club.

There’s a reason the Christ Church shooter yelled “Subscribe to PewDiePie” besides being a topical meme.

Odd since it’s arguably just as easy to make a new reddit account

Sick! I’ve added both to my list.

I’m almost done with “Tracers in the Dark”

Seems interesting. What did you think about it?

I wish I had this rizz

Twilight Zone music

I was promised SHIT POSTS and now I get one! Thank you!

Got any recs? I can generally talk my company into paying for most anything education wise, but Udemy style courses work with my ADHD the best.

Thanks! I’m still on reddit brain.

Yes! Gods damn it. I had that up an everything on my second monitor.

$1000-$1100 is still a lot to ask of me specifically, but that is closer to market IMHO

I don’t really care unless it has the same price point as the 8gb one.

But we all know it won’t be.
