    When you watch on vhs or laserdisc the loss of resolution only bothers you til the movie sucks you in. At that point it’s irreverent because your eyeballs are not watching a long s…

    I redid everything that matters in my house/homelab with DAC cables for exactly that reason. Order of magnitude difference in watts and heat

    Wouldn’t you also need to include the Ancient Greek phryctoriae military fire signalling system by that logic? It probably wasn’t the first, at that.

    Very “futurological congress” thought

    Also s4nake, the concept in a 4k binary from the demoscene circa 2013 https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=61035

    It’s not a process monitor, really, but to me the AWS Lightsail monitor tab feels like this. The “sustainable” line hits me right in the OCD to keep me grinding on cpu usage of the…

    Model back doors feel like baseless fearmongering. Something like https://rentry.org/IsolatedLinuxWebService should provide a good guarantee of privacy and security.

    I have this as well, but run a heavily locked down and isolated BIND server with NSD and Unbound for external authoritative and internal caching DNS respectively. Its easy to feed …

    Thanks, it was a bit of a gamble at the time (lots of dodgy ebay parts), but it paid off. R1 starts at about 10t/s on an empty context but quickly falls off. I'd say the majority o…

    No, I’m running the unquantized 120b

    2xEPYC Genoa w/768GB of DDR5-4800 and an A5000 24GB card. I built it in January 2024 for about $6k and have thoroughly enjoyed running every new model as it gets released. Some of …

    Its also easy to do 120b on CPU if you have the resources. I had 120b running on my home LLM CPU inference box in just as long as it took to download the GGUFs, git pull and rebuil…

    Thanks Daniel. I know you upload them, but I was hoping for some solid numbers on your dynamic q8 vs a naive quant. There doesn't seem to be anything on either of those links to sh…

    I generally download the safetensors and make my own GGUFs, usually at Q8_0. Is there any measurable benefit to your dynamic quants at that quant level? I looked at your dynamic qu…

    Trees are pure carbon. I have heard a number of weak “yeah, but…” arguments that try to diminish the fact, but a central, common sense thesis remains. If we are truly worried about…

    Here’s a demoscene prod from 2013 that executes a similar idea in 4 kilobytes https://m.pouet.net/prod.php?which=61035

    I can second this. I’ve been using R1 to both straight up generate mermaid as well as making custom mermaid syntax generators for dynamic diagramming

    In my opinion GPT-SoVITS is the best if you can put in the effort. I'm still using v2 since the output is so good. Its also the best multilingual one in my testing on Japanese inpu…

    Smokeping is an amazing and underrated resource as a network health metric and diagnostics tool. If you have a network monitoring or asset system you can export IP addresses from, …

    That's very nice and compact. I do the same with a short bash script, but wrap each file in triple-backticks and attempt to put the correct language label on each eg: Filename: dem…

    The build guide index page is newer, but to be fair, the mikubox rentry is from Oct 6, 2023. If that isn't "ancient" in terms of AI workstation build guides, then I don't know what…

    This is just a limited recreation of the ancient mikubox from https://rentry.org/lmg-build-guides Its funny to see people independently "discover" these builds that are a year plus…
