I have tried a lot of local models. I have 656GB of them on my computer so I have experience with a diverse array of LLMs. Gemma has been nothing to write home about and has been disappointing every single time I have used it. Models that a

+1 for Llamafile. They just released a new release and it supports Deepseek R1 models. I have a blank Llamafile and load models into it using a .bat file that I edit as needed. I have a custom webui that I made that lets me save and organiz

I haven't missed anything in my usage, I just wish it had photoshop's easy automation tools where I could record and save my actions but Krita has scripting support so I'll learn that eventually.

Try Krita, it’s free, opensource and what gimp should have been all along.

Almost no website uses this, even big ones like Google who insist on showing me pages in German rather than English or French.

RTF (rich text format) existed and still exists and is good enough for what most people need without the option of embedding viruses. 10+ formats is better than 1 dumpster fire of vulnerable file format that has caused uncalulated damage.

>WhatsApp said it believed the so-called vector, or means by which the infection was delivered to users, was through a malicious pdf So much drama could be saved by banning PDFs, one of the worst, most annoying and insecure file formats

I've been doing web dev for at least 15 years now so I kind of grew up with the technologies. The thing that helped me the most was building stuff from scratch in my personal projects to learn what is actually happening behind the scen

We had a lot of data too, everyday we produced at least two hours of video, it would get encoded to the various formats we needed (broadcast and web), store the archive on our local server (which did a lot of backend tasks as well) and host

That’s still way too much. In my previous job I ran the site on $10 a month dual core cpu. It had decent traffic, live status updates, a live stream during 2 hours of the day, a successful e-commerce shop. The site was getting thousands of

It’s still gonna cost them that click, if every site I go to will cost advertisers money I’m good. Also if it doesn’t work why did Google go out of their way to make it hard to install? If it was truly harmless to advertisers Google would n

Well the specific profile that they build on me will be a mess. I don’t see many ads and when I receive one it is not very targeted at all as if they don’t know what I actually like and what my real interests are…

No, it will ad noise to their data and make their profile of me a mess and very inaccurate. If they make models from this data it will be fundamentally flawed (Garbage in = Garbage out)

This whole cookie banner situation is a disaster. Companies know that you will not accept their cookies and have decided to use the "legitimate interest" loop hole. So if you select reject all cookie, the legitimate interest ones

I don’t know about Norwegian but I wonder if the issues are due to the training data. I’m sure it’s possible to train new voices. The English voices are hit or miss, but some voices have up to 900 speakers so it should be able to find a nic

I have been experimenting with piper TTS recently, it's free, open source, fast and has a lot of voices in different languages but the quality is not the best but it's still good enough for most cases. https://rhasspy.g

It’s probably motion smoothing causing it to flicker on certain TVs. Why motion smoothing exists on TVs is another question. I guess some people want everything to look like a cheap soap opera.

This is clearly hyperbole, the only person that knows what is going on in Mark's head is Mark himself, everything else is just speculation. >What if he's just right? He's not.
