Probably LLM slop, but also it's the same GB10 chip as the DGX Spark so why would the memory bandwidth be significantly different?

The solar array is 4 km by 4 km. The whole Earth, with its 6400 km radius, only gets hit by a Prius-sized asteroid once per year. So the risks are much lower. I guess the array may be hit by many micro-asteroids though, but it should be po

Asahi Linux has long switched from Arch to Fedora (though a janky Arch version still exists). But they don't support anything newer than M2.

I always felt like tokenization is one of those double edged swords where it makes some stuff amazingly easier but gets tripped up on the weirdest bugs. The number of "r"s in "strawberry" being another well-known quirk.
