I was there three days ago, can comfirm. And if you want to stay overnight, you _of course_ sleep in the neighbouring IKEA Hotel! And if you check-in to the hotel first, you‘ll get a voucher for free entrance to the museum. Did I mention th

Interesting setup. What GPU(s)/VRAM, CPU and RAM are you using for the 122B model, with which quantization, and what token rates do you achieve for prefill and generation?

Does anybody think Aluminium as a brand name is a good choice? Especially considering the intended expansion towards the premium market. To me it sounds cheap, second-rate, ersatz. What you use if you cannot afford a better metal. Chrome i

Perhaps you are looking for larger savings but I would count the RWKV line of LLM architectures in this category: https://wiki.rwkv.com/basic/architecture.html

If you have a south (or SE or SW) facing wall without much shadowing from nearby buildings or trees, vertikal mounting does work OK. Do not expect to reach the panel's nominal Wp rating though, output will peak at 50-70% of that. But

Loooking closely, the shop does not seem to be located within the EU. And the 50€ discount does not apply to the 128GB config. Also, if you are interested, it might help to have a look into the user forum: https://de.gmktec.com&

Note that the small print on the GMKtec site says that prices do not include customs and VAT. Which seem to amount to 19% in the EU. So, almost 2,4K€.

Interesting - do you need to take any special measures to get OSS genAI models to work on this architecture? Can you use inference engines like Ollama and vLLM off-the-shelf (as Docker containers) there, with just the Radeon 8060S GPU? Wha

This brings back fond memories from the 8-bit era. Tasword II was a text processor for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum where the developers resorted to extra-narrow fonts to cope with the Speccy's very limited (256x192) screen resolution. Th

Interestingly, owning even a small PV setup like these "balcony solar" devices, and monitoring its output, causes many people to think more about their grid power consumption, and to reduce it or adapt their usage pattern to solar

Good job indeed.Started happening some time in Novenber, and they merrily keep rolling out this buggy Google Authenticator update after people reported the lock-out behaviour you encountered. Apart from corrupting the TOTP seeds for some us

My first impulse after ruling out Google Authenticator was to simply switch to Microsoft's Authenticator app (which I already had to use for a work-related thing anyway), thinking "of course MS would not make the same stupid mista

Agreed. I had it solve a little programming problem in a really obscure programming language and after some prompt tuning got results strongly superior to GPT4, Claude, Llama3 and Mixtral. As the language (which I won't name here) is
