Always fun to watch an original program on computer stuff.

I will of course always remain a Commodore fanboy. More C-64 than Amiga but had them both.

Venezuela has the largest proven oil reserves in the world, estimated at about 303 billion barrels. This amount is significantly larger than that of any other country, including Saudi Arabia, which has around 297 billion barrels Venezuela has a shitload of oil.

No. I've just been messing around with Docker and saw this so decided to give things a try. I would like to set up a RAG thing that I can import my own documents into.

Nice. are you using LM Studio? if you are search for this model: nemotron-3-nano the Q4_K_M is 24.52 GB (you don't need anything larger than a Q4 quant for quality) It's a thinking model and really fast which is a great combo. That will easily fit in your 5090. You don't need to mess with any settin...

Supposedly there is a reboot of MinM on the way. I never watched it originally so will probably give it a pass.

So they halt production of Arrested Development, but they leave the Simpsons running? Fox needs to sell the rights to 24 and Malcom in the Middle to another station and just shut down. I started watching Malcom in the Middle. It reminds me of Married with Children in spirit. (Bryan Cranston from Br...

You'll be fine at slower speeds. I think my 128GB of RAM is running at 3200 (maybe 3600, but something pretty slow). It just doesn't matter much when everything uses VRAM. Now that you have 32GB of that you should be fine for anything that needs speed. Keep lowering the system ram speed until it's s...

Dick Cheney - No comment. He did vote for Harris in 2024 so there's that. One of the most evil vice presidents in history and basically was the president for most of the time Bush Jr was in office. It's crazy that Harris thought an endorsement from Cheney's wife would be a good thing. If you're not...

Some off that list I took note of: Jay North: Played Dennis in Dennis the menace 1959 TV series. I recently started watching the first season of it.

I decided not to get the 500GB SATA as I don't think I'd really use it. I probably should have dropped one of the 1TBs also. I suppose I could always return it. While in Microcenter to pick up the rest of my order I did peruse the RAM aisle. A 128GB kit of Corsair Vengeance was marked at $2,000. Wh...

Samsung is supposedly going to stop making 2.5" SSD drives starting in 2026 so I guess if you want a Samsung drive you should probably get one at some point soon. I'm not sure the last time I used one so I don't I don't think I'll pick one up. But maybe a 1-2 TB one could be good for older com...

Another short note. nvidia/nemotron-3-nano Just came out today. It's really fast. the Q4 is about 24 GB I think.

I did do some AI stuff to do some stress testing on the 5090. Normal Text to Image generation didn't seem that stressful but honestly I forgot how to do most things and the ComfyUI UI changed since the last time I used it.

I’m an episode or two behind, but I think this show is a critique of AI. Vince Gilligan openly said he hates AI but also said the show isn't about AI.

Why else would the majority of Americans vote for the anti-christ? That didn’t happen. Of the people who voted in the 2024 election, less than half voted for Trump. OK 49.8% and won the popular vote.

I know Trump is a clown. No secret there. He is the result of what the left did while in office. Why else would the majority of Americans vote for the anti-christ?

considering the left is just as bad or worse, a balanced approach would be good. People seemed to like Biden because he was so far gone he couldn't speak. meanwhile everyone else in office was robbing the country blind. At least Trump is in your face.

I've been a little under the weather so a little slow going on my testing of the new GPU. Not specific to 6000 (5090 can do this) you can make Loras (styles or character) in like 10 or so minutes with the Realtime Lora process. I've made 5 already using just the low 768px setting and they work reall...

Winnow

definitely try lowering the speed. That might not ever be noticed at all. I have slow speed setting on my ram. You could lower it quite a bit.

I did buy a 4x32 kit. RAM is finicky. Lowering the speed might fix the issue as long as all the other settings are right.

Very early comments: 1. It truly was plug and play. Hardest part (as always) was reaching the little PCI slot lever to remove the 4090. It remembered all three monitor settings. Nvidia drivers and all the pytorch/cuda stuff for ComfyUi works. 2. No difference in sound (none) when not under load. It ...

The good thing is I didn't really NEED to upgrade my memory as 96GB has been doing well but the price was too good in comparison to the current market price at this time and I imagine I could easily sell it for more than I paid if I wanted to.

I just bought an RTX 6000 for $8,300 96GB VRAM 300W Max-Q so version so I can use with current PSU.

I really wanted 48GB but only thin...

With as much as you're into AI I'm surprised you haven't gotten a 5090. I don't know.. I think you should give out hope on a 48GB model and get something now. Not like they will be getting cheaper or more plentiful. Especially with Nvidia allegedly telling board partners they are on their own when ...

I was at Microcenter today and someone had probably 150 128 GB microSD cards (mc cards in packs of 10). There's no way that was all for personal use. Darn speculators hoarding it up to resell later.

I don't think undervaluing would cause issues. I set mine one time and that was it, never touched it again. Just do whatever the minimum undervolting is. RAM certainly can be the culprit. That's always high on the list of possible issues. Don't overlclock the RAM or anything like that, make sure set...

I have installed it and it appears legit. No stability issues thus far. Now, will I ever utilize it all? Probably not. I should probably just pull the two sticks out and install them back when/if I need it. I would have left the package unopened but it being a third-party Wal-Mart seller I thought ...

I actually learned something from that video. 1. not to quantize the model if you have 24GB or more VRAM 2. train at multiple sizes. 512/768/1024 (the trainer sizes them for you. you just need to add the initial quality images along with their .txt captions) I was training every step at 1024 because...

Yeah, if you have a high quality PSU (which you should) use the connectors from that. 10-12 years ago I had something actually catch on fire in my PC. It was an expansion card or ethernet card.
