Does PieFed have native Android or iOS apps?

Sure but that’s not as weird haha

I figured. Crazy the color though. Kinda cool. I will probably check the place out if I get a chance. I’m not too far away.

Interesting. What was the name of the shop? And what is activated charcoal coconut? I’m assuming it isn’t just charcoal since that would probably taste terrible haha

Interesting. I have always felt that the Steam deck loses quite a bit of battery percentage during sleep. I agree that it would be a fantastic quality of life update to enable to shut down or enter some form of lower power consumption hibernation state after a period of time at a certain battery level.

I think some of the responses here, while they may be well-intentioned, are a bit off base because they are confusing the word ‘normal’ (which is what you are asking) with ‘recommended’. Is it normal for someone in your position who has had a lot of time alone due to your health challenges to want more social outlets and someone to talk to? Absolutely. Is it normal to see a character in a work of art (a video game, movie, show etc.) and become attached to them in some degree? I would say yes. Most of us have done that at one point or another. Is it normal to want to be able to communicate with this person to help provide a social outlet and a listening ear for someone in your situation? Again, I’d say probably yeah. Now, is it recommended to have an ‘AI’ like this as your primary social outlet or to see them as a real human friend or even romantic partner? That is much more questionable. But, personally, with the context you provided and the challenging situation you have been in I think the tendency towards doing this is still quite normal and understandable. I think you should strive to validate your feelings of loneliness and the understandable desire to assuage those feelings with what you have available to you in a challenging and socially isolating environment while still understanding that an ‘AI’ like this should not ideally be your primary social outlet and to strive to find more ways in the future to connect with real people who care and are interested in you (and vice versa). It may not seem like it right now, but they are out there! I wish you peace and a speedy recovery!

That’s deregulation capitalism for ya.

Fixed it for you.

Looks like it now has Docling Content Extraction Support for RAG. Has anyone used Docling much?

Oh and I typically get 16-20 tok/s running a 32b model on Ollama using Open WebUI. Also I have experienced issues with 4-bit quantization for the K/V cache on some models myself so just FYI

It really depends on how you quantize the model and the K/V cache as well. This is a useful calculator. https://smcleod.net/vram-estimator/ I can comfortably fit most 32b models quantized to 4-bit (usually KVM or IQ4XS) on my 3090’s 24 GB of VRAM with a reasonable context size. If you’re going to be needing a much larger context window to input large documents etc then you’d need to go smaller with the model size (14b, 27b etc) or get a multi GPU set up or something with unified memory and a lot of ram (like the Mac Minis others are mentioning).

This would be a great potential improvement in UX for streaming sports feeds for sure - not having to navigate web pages and start / manage streams manually etc. Does anyone know if this is possible for sites serving these streams like FirstRowSports or StreamEast etc?

It would be more interesting to see this with a cost of living figure for each state as well.

Is it possible to use StreetComplete on iOS?

I think we can all agree that modifications to these models which remove censorship and propaganda on behalf of one particular country or party is valuable for the sake of accuracy and impartiality, but reading some of the example responses for the new model I honestly find myself wondering if they haven’t gone a bit further than that by replacing some of the old non-responses and positive portrayals of China and the CPC with a highly critical perspective typified by western governments which are hostile to China (in particular the US). Even the name of the model certainly doesn’t make it sound like neutrality and accuracy is their primary aim here.

I used to daily drive Ubuntu some years ago for work/personal use but have been back on Win 10 primarily for the last 4-5 years. I was considering trying to go back due to how much Windows sucks (despite some proprietary software only being available on it) but remembering the trouble I had with some networking/printer drivers and troubleshooting those issues and then seeing this article Is definitely making me reconsider…

Yeah I use voyager pretty much exclusively on my iPhone so maybe I should request a feature like that there? Seems like it would be something that many people would appreciate. Not sure why I end up seeing posts with -10, -15 votes… Those are generally trash haha

Bird on the Wire

Is this what the Leonard Cohen song is about?

Thanks for the info. I don’t know a ton about them but I’m honestly massively impressed at the talent of the Proton devs. The fact that they have made most games run as well and some games run better on Unix operating systems through a translation layer than on Windows (the OS they were designed for) is ridiculously impressive. And this just shows they aren’t resting on their laurels but are being proactive in preventing issues before they happen which is immensely commendable and impressive.
