My current linux mint kernel is 7.0+ and its giving me grief trying to get ROCm 7.14 to run since i've heard good things about that version supporting RDNa 4
I basically hear everywhere online its wise to adjust those three things since its so loud and there is minimal performance loss but what are exactly the optimal ranges of those three things to experiment within without accidentally damaging my card?
Are there any specific things I should be aware of? I'm on linux mint cinnamon if it matters and it's nothing fancy like dual gpus, just that one card. Also planning on using my integrated cpu graphics so all the vram can be used for loading model weights and stuff.
I really liked the fact that the main character told their story and that you got to play it with all the funny fourth wall breaks and inconsistenties that came along with him telling it by making bullshit up on the spot and things just magically moving / appearing to make the story make sense since he was half drunk while telling the story. It wasn't just pure comedy though and had some very emotional scenes but I don't mind if the entire game youre recommending is comedy.
I'm looking for books where the main antagonist (or antagonistic force) feels genuinely impossible to overcome.
A good example of what I mean is Steelheart, the book that got me into reading in the first place (even though the ending reveal sucked lol) . Early on within the first 20 pages of the book he's introduced with an overwhelming display of power, and for a long time he feels less like a person you can fight and more like a natural disaster or a god that you simply avoid. Every encounter with him carries real tension because it feels like one mistake means instant death.
What I'm NOT looking for is something like how The Boys (TV show version) handled the main threat where Homelander starts off terrifying but eventually the main cast constantly crosses him without ANYTHING happening.
I want stories where the threat remains competent, intimidating, and consistent throughout. If the heroes do manage to win, I want it to feel earned through clever planning, sacrifice, or exploiting a believable weakness and not because the villain suddenly becomes incompetent or gets nerfed.
Im currently reading Worm by Wildbow and I'm at the Leviathan blood bath part early on and god damn this shit is like crack but I don't want to just stick to one work.
Any genre is welcome as long as there is a ton of action. The main thing I'm chasing is that feeling of "How the fuck are they ever supposed to beat this?"
Honesty I used to slug it out with the janitorai LLM trying to fit 200-300 messages worth of story in 6k effective tokens (it has 9k tokens but 3k are usually reserved for character descriptions) those were dark times but I've gone local and ever since then I can't imagine doing anything with less than 40k context.
Every time I see one of these low-effort "incel" edits where they just swap out the dialogue to push their bitter narrative, it makes me cringe so hard. Like bro, just make your own comic at that point. Also hate it when they don't even bother to properly make the text fit into the speech bubble.
I've seen this edit floating around for like 3 years every time the topic of them getting approached comes up, like they cant conceptualize a girl ACTUALLY wanting to bond with them and not just her wanting to recruit another orbiter to get attention from or free favors from even if she has a boyfriend.
A couple of months ago a company called PrismML backed by google created an 8b model called Bonsai that was made with ternary that competed with fp16 precision 8b models which weigh 16~gb while the ternary version only weighed 1~gb, today they dropped the 27b version of it which weighs 5~gb while showcasing benchmarks; PrismML — Announcing Bonsai 27B: The First 27B-Class Model to Run on a Phone
Even the guys at r/LocalLLaMA are losing their shit over the fact that it competes with fp16 quality which would originally weigh a whopping 54gb worth of vram at 27b while the ternary only weighs 5~gb
I used to pray for times like this
With Bonsai 8b at 1bit being 1gb~ size while being functional and the 27b being dropped also at 1bit while only being 5~gb, is the future for 1bit models looking bright? What will their primary use be?
It's literally the ultimate rotating game mode with a perfect balance of for fun players & try hard sweats, the champ and ult combos are endless and the matches are all unique and go by so fast. Holy shit I miss it so god damn much, I don't think I can handle getting another urf / brawl game mode with the upcoming event. Might genuinely crash out.
Like holy shit it seems like everybody became a schizo conspiracy theoriest after that drug cameee out. Any and all weightloss is just written off as ozempic use. It feels like shit to have all your hard work made out to be nothing.
Recently bought into the local LLM hype by buying a 32gb vram gpu and holy shit, gemma 4 31b at 5bits blows the standard ChatGPT model out of the fucking water. I just can't unsee the quality difference now that I've experienced it. Does Openai just cut costs by serving their customers this slop since most people just use it as a search engine?
Aangezien duo normaal gesproken een rentebedrag tussen de 2% en 3% hanteert zal ik rekenen met 3%. Op 9 jaar maximaal lenen kom je uit op ongeveer €58.000 geleend en door rente op rente eindig je ergens rond de €63.000 - €65.000 totale schuld.
Beetje context over mijn situatie: ik ben iemand die op het vwo al probeerde bij te klussen maar het gewoon niet werkte. Ik kwam thuis na mijn dienst, had nog huiswerk en toetsen voor de boeg en merkte dat ik letterlijk geen mentale energie meer had. Niet uit luiheid, ik kon gewoon niet meer focussen. Alles wat ik daarna nog probeerde te leren ging het ene oor in en het andere uit.
Ik verwacht eerlijk gezegd dat dit op de universiteit niet anders wordt. Misschien zelfs erger. Ik wil gewoon thuis komen van de hoorcolleges, wat huiswerk maken / studeren voor een uurtje of 2 en dan ontspannen.
Als ik niet maximaal leen en alleen genoeg leen voor mijn collegegeld heb ik maar 18000-27000 schuld na 6 - 9 jaar hoewel ik dan alleen 200-300 euro per maand over heb na al mijn vaste lasten (exclusief boodschappen) en dat is wel krap.
Mods are even defending this selfhating coon, if any other subreddit pulled off even a quarter of this shit they would have been nuked off the website.
According to the CDC 40.3% is obese, 31.7% is just over weight ( you read that right there are MORE obese Americans than just overweight ones) so 72% of your competition is non existent. The average height is also 5 foot 9, how are you people struggling??? By being healthy weight and unironically showermaxxxing you're already in the top 28 percentile of men. At least people living in the Netherlands have an excuse as it's basically Chad Central with a very healthy population and 6 foot average height.
