it's funny how the same behavior plays out in primates. If a middle ranked male chimpanzee is denied their desire by a top ranking male they take out their frustration on a lower ranked male. The 80s documentary called Chimpanzee family explains it well

Well said. Israel is having a tantrum because they were so close to beating Iran but didn't get to do so, so they took it all out on Lebanon.

Again? ffs

And their CEO doesn't post selfies with war criminals

OOTL, what is this a reference to?

His photo with a prime minister of a country with a famous arrest warrant in The Hague.

You know, the same country whose former prime minister is this person: https://jmail.world/person/ehud-barak

I built pretty much this exact rig myself, but now it's gathering dust, any other uses for this rather than localLLMS

Sell it? There are people who want a rig like this.

The 3090 I have in my server (Ollama on it is only used occasionally nowadays since I have dual 5080s on my work desktop), also handles accelerating transcoding in Plex, and is in the process of being setup to handle monitoring my 3d printers for failures via camera.

Am also considering setting up Home Assistant with LLM support again.

Play DnD by yourself with Llama as a DM

Heating

I use an older machine/GPU for wintertime heating, mining Monero (xmrig).

Should one get lucky and guess the next valid block, that pays the entire month's electricity — since an electric space heater would already be consuming the exact same amount of kWH as this GPU, there is no "negative cost" to operate.

This machine/GPU used to be my main workhorse, and still has ollama3.2 available — but even with HBM, 8GB of VRAM isn't really relevant in LLM-land.

3D rendering and fluid simulation stuff could be interesting.

Playing games, it has a good graphics card
