I was going to get a 4090 this year, but I just don't think 24gb VRAM is going to bee enough in the short term future(for AI related stuff). Ended up getting a 3060 for 1/4 of the cost, and I'm planning on using/paying for Colab until some 6090 comes out with 128gb vram. Something that kind of bothers me that I don't understand. Why is there such an obsession about having small computers/servers? I don't care if I ha…

> Why is there such an obsession about having small computers/servers More likely just cost. If a "small" computer costs $2k, how much do you think a "big" one will cost? $10k+ probably, what is the market for that? And you can buy a rack in your home and put 10 servers in it if you really want a closet sized computer.

You'd expect manufacturing costs to go down.

Most of the cost is in CPU/GPU/RAM.

Yes, so if your CPU doesnt need to be the size of a box of cards, your GPU doesnt need to be the size of a library book, the manufacturing costs would go down.

Why wouldn’t you use colab for nsfw? Do you really not trust Google Cloud that much? Or do they have some kind of policy I’m not aware of (can’t imagine how they would enforce this)?

It gets harder to build big things with small transistors, not easier, due to yield.

Also if you want to use big transistors, power dissipation also means you have to stay small or you will start fires.

As always, the red carpet is rolled out to welcome all new users into the funhouse, but with time, the carpet is withdrawn, the doors are very slowly bolted shut, and then the house master starts to look under the beds of all the guests who don't fit a particular group
