I’m bored of using the AI for anything other than my work. Because with my work I can give very detailed and structured prompts and get the best results, while also being able to evaluate the answer. For everything else I’m kinda worn out by second guessing all the time or having to enter a long thread until I get a decent response.

Thank God for uMatrix. Seriously, I don't know how I lived without that thing. Load times on everything are at least 30% faster.

Hello time traveler! Um, there's a pandemic coming with 2020. Buy the dip, stocks are going to skyrocket for at least 5 years.

So is Elon Musk and yet he is the richest man on Earth, has meddled in government freely and fanboys still believe every fart that is coming out of him.

He used to be into making cars too but that clearly fell off the wayside

... and has very little respect here. Some fanboys aren't a guide to amount of respect one deserves, regardless of topic.

I must say he redeemed himself tiny little bit in my eyes when he blocked russian use of starlink in their war in Ukraine, I didn't register any apparent reason apart from stopping murdering of civilians by russians, but thats been happening during whole war in non-trivial numbers. But he also famously sabotaged their naval drones mid attack by disabling all of them during early phase of the war, to not sink half of black sea naval fleet at one go, so... a complicated, highly unreliable person.

I think everybody can easily find deep flaws in him, be them personal or professional (ie he is POS father based on many accounts for example, thats not flying with most parents that know this). Then it matters if folks have firm hard-to-bend moral values or are more flexible with them. Based on experience most people are quite a bit flexible, otherwise they would have to hate themselves too a lot.

It’s deeply average that Musk is improving his behaviour when he stops helping Russia.

You’re not paying to chat. This isn’t therapy. You’re paying to see content and the chat is supposed to be complementary for support reasons.

You pay an $1k extra just to get the model with 1TB disk. How is that a steal?

pro tip: don't

Meanwhile, you're paying top dollars to a consulting firm that resolves back to an LLM to provide its services.

Go to a cooking lesson, a dancing lesson, a climbing lesson, a music lesson or a whateverthefuck lesson. That’s like a dummy’s way to socialize and find some people to hung around.

Facebook recently flagged my account and asked for a video selfie and I decided that I'd rather leave that shithole than uploade biometric data.

Macs or a strix halo. Unless you want to go lower than 8-bit quantization where any GPU with 24GBs of VRAM would probably run it.

Or you can get a strix halo from AMD. They run about $2k from various Chinese brands, or a bit more from Framework. 128GBs of unified RAM are plenty for most models, although memory bandwidth is slower than in a mac.
