Yep, even Valve themselves told multiple times “it’'s just a computer”, hence the price that comparable to other prebuild computers. Who in their mind would pay 3x of that?
That being said, Alienware and Razor audience also exists, so anything possible.
Yes, but your win XP doesn’t have ms-access integration with policy control and constant antivirus background checks, is it? Clearly inferior OS then. /s
The only reason I had to move in VM everything, that was perfectly working on my local machine with arch — security’s-team decision that all workers should have that ms plug in their ass. And surprise-surprise, guess where it doesn’t work oob? On top of that, they proposed solution if you don’t want to (can’t) connect it to your windows/macos machine — use azure remote desktop. Which also doesn’t work on linux despite using regular RDP — it specifically uses complicated token auth, that is not supported in any rdp linux software. Neat, eh? Honestly, if there were any better paying job (or any decent job at all) I would jump at first call.
“works on my machine”
It doesn’t, it updates package if you agreed to update. It looks like you misunderstand what I said. I meant that any update can bring issues, it’s not “I installed and it works forever”
and then its like clockwork
My brother in Christ, what are you talking about? Do you not install any software whatsoever? Do you not have a need to update it? Or maybe all your hardware works out of the box 100% of time? My setup full amd, pretty fresh (am5 + rdna3), but it still a gamble each time I’m launching new game on steam. Will it work out of the box? Will proton-cachyos just bork itself (happened week ago, still not sure what caused it, maybe mangohud)? Will my whole desktop just crash cause of bug in driver that specific to one extension in vulkan? Or maybe I simply won’t be able to see my desktop at all cause amd with LG tv is a bad combination? It’s a shitshow.
Run linux on it with windows VM, if your memory hungry software supported. Unironically pretty good duo.
I had to bump my virtual machine (with win11) for work up to 32gb, simply cause single firefox browser + slack was running out of 24gb after full day of work. Which consists out of opening google office suit like gmail\gsheet and web apps with some internal tools. What a cool world we living in.
Any software can be fixed, it just that amount of effort needed for that would be insane in case of windows, so at this point it’s easier to use ostrich algorithm
Hell mac os works well at 8.
I’m certified apple hater and “all linux” user, but in all fairness - MacOS does amazing job with ram managing. Caching, swap control and i\o priority scheduling made way better than on any linux distro.
found it a little difficult to configure.
It’s okay, dev apparently think it’s hard too, otherwise I have no clue why da fuck he would change configuration scheme 3 focking times
But it’s a scrolling wm…
But It’s a scrolling wm!
Niri is amazing:
But: Still in development, some features broken or not exists. Blur for example was added in hurry, so visual bugs with it is common. HDR is not supported. Another thing that actually forced me to switch - bit depth control is not supported (patch for that was proposed half a year ago and only recently was merged, so it should be in new release), cause of that my monitor always tries to set 16bit color space, which is obviosly imposible thru hdmi and with my TV, so after booting up niri I always have black screen (or not, sometimes it reverts to defaults which is 8 bit and for HDR\to use my monitor you ideally need 10, so it’s a mess). And there some additional small things, like no way to trigger something on desktop\window switch, small things like that, which usually do exist in tailing managers.
But beyond that, it’s awesome and I hope dev continue. It milions time better than hyprland just because they haven’t changed damn config scheme 3 time in a focking row.
Same, toyed with it for creating stupid things like bot for telegram, that basically was a 3rd-person NSFW storyteller in RP chat. Sadly, after I made said bot I remember that I don’t have friends to RP with.
That being said, ollama+openwebui kinda sucks: openwebui have “wider scope” and features that you don’t need like auth via social providers and managing multiple accounts, while ollama itself does the opposite and lacks certain features (like proper mmap support to load big models), slow in comparison to pure llama.cpp and generally easily replaceable with lm studio, that provides both - client and server. So yeah, my advise for anyone who want to try it localy - just use lm manager.
There were a case back in the days of PS3, where sony removed ability to run linux from new versions of console. They were sued and lost, but still decided to pay the fine, rather than returning functionality.
The main issue as I see it, is that they sell consoles as cheap as possible (previously they even sold them at a loss) and then return such investment by selling you games and subscription. By opening ability to install linux, not only they will loss profit from upper mentioned part on existing devices, but there a chance people will start buying PS5 to use as a regular desktop or general server or whatever, due to being simply cheapest prebuild option available for such specs. Same point was rised by Valve actually, they too was afraid that if they start selling gabebox at loss, people will buy them for anything, but playing games.
All that being said, fuck sony, microsoft and any other big company, that locks it’s hardware. PS4 still have usable x86 hardware, but soon will be a landfill, cause you can’t really do anything with, other than play ps4 games.
You don’t need 170+ GB of VRAM. Whole model can be run at around 1 token/second on a modern hardware from an ssd. Which is slow, don’t get me wrong, but it still somewhat useable.
Upd.Once again, for those who use AI because struggles to read: it is slow, but it is usable. Which is, by definition, means that you don’t need 170+ GB of VRAM to run this model. Period. It runs from ssd. That is a fact.
First I wanted to comment that you don’t have to use reddit in the first place, but then I saw the subreddit and yea, it justified, go ahead.
Also for some reason, mobile version of the site just allows you to open the sub with 18+ content, while desktop version doesn’t have that option. They forgot to remove the button?
