Usually do a review of all my usenet block data providers at black friday. bunny.net sometimes has recharge discounts. mxroute maybe, though generally renewing my 2019 offer works out better. Leaning towards no vps this time.

Only worth it for those that don't have the technical ability to DIY this. e.g. I literally posted on this forum how to do text generation: https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/6399/install-llama-on-a-gpu-server#latest Same for the rest. Transcrip…

No specific need my side, but props on the promo
-
Check out the promotion they've got on T2A VM type...north of 200+ discount per month till March. It's their new ARM line. That's a pretty chunk instance. Pity it is time limited Checked it yesterday and seems to be working as expected (Image)

(Quote) Thanks for the detail hmm...so possible but not without a lot of planning. In the middle of London without a car too so this may be a bridge to far. Certainly not schlepping a heavy case through public transport. Actually found a colo that…

(Quote) No I meant the AX41 is roughly 40 bucks, and the colo fee was also roughly 40. That was the comparison. The one has no hardware though, so the comparison is really more: AX41 ~40pm <<> colo 40pm + sizable once off hardware buy. Wh…

(Quote) Jikes. Well that explains a lot. Real pity that I can't retire my desktop gear into a colo. (Quote) ...0.2amps on the £40 plan. Even at 220V that's a non-starter. Didn't even spot that initially

Not surprised frankly. Ever since plex started allowing sharing it got pretty murky
-
(Quote) Yep - for GUI use it's probably the best. Started with that & still use it for chatbot use. llama.cpp becomes more interesting if you want to use it for integration into coding projects. (Also potentially langchain)

LES as a product segment strikes me as fundamentally unsustainable. Not commercially necessarily...mean that more big picture. Often a 1 man band and people get bored/sick/swamped/depressed/life happens. They're just humans after all. So my startin…

(Quote) Wohoo! If you're looking for something more user friendly, this works well: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui (Quote) You can technically wget the files off huggingface too but this way is cleaner as long as the repo is sp…

It's got a bit of a dark history (Quote) https://www.thurrott.com/windows/windows-10/235783/appget-creator-says-microsoft-stole-his-product

(Quote) Yep - the LLMs seem much more interesting to me in the long run & def the part I want to learn more about in the host it yourself context. This stuff is absolutely gonna change the world. (Quote) It's incredibly hard to benchmark them i…

You've got some balancing issues in that build. e.g. You're sticking a gen 3 SSD into a gen 5 slot. As a reference point that's 1gbps ssd in a 8gbps (per lane respectively), so severe mismatch. Unless you're interested in AI tech I'd strongly sugge…

Unless you're very clued up on k8s it's more likely to reduce availability than increase it. Too many footguns I prefer using a CDN for the primary hosting and something serverless to deliver the dynamic bits but very dependent on the nature of the…
-
(Quote) Yes, though I believe it depends how manual it is. i.e. you get tape drives that can switch between catridges themselves etc
-
(Quote) You can probably you use a VPS to get around that. Haven't tried it but NAS connecting to vps with wireguard and you connecting to same should work. Alternatively I know clouflare tunnels can get around the dynamic ip issue, but unsure if t…

Much to my shame I've been buying more books than reading. btw highly recommend Amazon kindle daily sales. It's approximately 95% garbage. But if you check it daily against a list of book you desire that 5% rapidly means you got a giant library of …
