I just got qwn3-4b-instruct working on an Intel A750 with 8 gigs of vram.

I use it to power Home Assostant/Voice Assistant on a few M5Stack echos around the house to replace cloud based smart speakers.

Figured it out. I switched from the ollama service to llama.CPP and that seems to have fixed it.

I’m not a fan of how specific it needs you to be with wording. Took me too long to realize “turn lamp to 50%” had to be “turn lamp brightness to 50%” The former gives you nothing.

Also, it’s fun!

Yes. I even tried dropping down to just two entities exposed, and nothing changed.

I mean, I’m kind of for it not as a surface level practical solution, but as a symbolic fighting back against the big guys.

Like, if AI is going to make the worker valueless why not use it to make the products of rent-seeking software giants useless as well?

Except Claude shat them out in record time which means they’re likely virtually unmaintainable.

OP, are you a hammer head shark?

The printed pattern is larger than individual wrappers. You could say the same about any of the graphics only appearing sometimes.

Valid points. Lots of critical professions should be divorced from capitalism (looking at you, healthcare), and obviously hustle culture sucks.

What?

Journalists need to eat. What are you talking about.

That licensing a photograph is bleak or dystopian.

Journalism is important. Journalism isn’t free. Strong disagree.

I think in the current era, a photographer being compensated for their creative work is something to be celebrated.

Instructions unclear. Made self-aware furby army.

What do I do if all I have are PS1 memory cards?

ctrl R then type

Never tried history | grep though. Thanks for the tip!

Shit is usually a pain in the ass. The challenge is divining how much of a pain in the ass something has to be that someone else might have made a solution for it.

I didn’t know you could ctrl+shift+c to copy in the terminal until a month ago when my linux n00b wife said "there has to be a better way to do this. I’ve been right clicking to copy for 10 years.

Living in a city, I can kind of get it. The number of people who simply walk in front of my bike because they’re absorbed in their phone has made my commute stressful. I ended up installing a car horn on my bike which I’m sure makes their commute more stressful.

Perhaps the Walkman was the first time technology isolated people from the world around them.

Or I dunno, books.

Honestly, if they just made it easier to craft a formula (like, I dunno multiple lines, some kind of better color coding of matched parentheses, etc), that’d go a lot farther.
