Copyparty is good for me, very basic but both highly customizable and quick to setup with sane defaults.

On android I use a DAVx⁵ mount

I should try telling that to the criminals, that way we won’t need the police anymore 😌

Why bother with a VPN and not use tor? For any low volume usage it should be good

Grok was confused because he was supposed to be the unhinged one

Yup, had a robo call that was so real that the only reason I think it was a robo call is that they were way too kind to be a call center worker.

“Yup, that’s me. You might be wondering how I got here…”

Have you ever seen a non binary person and wario at the same place at the same time? There’s your answer.

Idk of any but I’m interested, commenting to add traffic 👍

Firstly, it depends on how illegal it is. Is it illegal like you shouldn’t do it and we will try to block you? Or is it illegal like if we catch you do it, you can get arrested or worse?

Scenario A:

• just try shit out, try different VPNs. Some of them provide certain obfuscation. You can see if they work. If they don’t work, you’ve got some more dedicated VPNs such as Tor with all kinds of Tor bridges (obfs4, snowflake, etc) Or psiphon

Scenario B:

• The risk is real and you might consider not doing it at all, but if you do, obfs4 is the only thing I can recommend, Psiphon is easily detectable (it’s just good at bypassing blocks)

That’s stupid, everyone know it’s post morning!

Reaper: tale of a pale swordsman

This is just the ADHD maneuver in picture form.

For countries without lead issues, it is still a bad idea as hot water tanks can be hosts to a bunch of shit you definitely don’t want to ingest.

This is ironic right? Because literally the word “Effort” is an item in the list. I think this is a woosh

Buying new: Basically all of the integrated memory units like macs and amd’s new AI chips, after that any modern (last 5 years) gpu while focusing only on vram (currently nvidia is more properly supported in SOME tools)

Buying second hand: not likely to find any of the integrated memory stuff, so any GPU from the last decade that is still officially supported and focusing on vram.

8gb is enough to run basic small models, 20+ for pretty capable 20-30b models, 50+ for the 70b ones and 100-200+ for full sized models.

These are rough estimates, do your own research as well.

For the most part with LLMs for a single user you really only care about VRAM and storage speed(ssd) Any GPU will perform faster than you can read for anything that fully fits on it’s VRAM, so the GPU only matters if you intend on running large models at extreme speeds (for automation tasks, etc) And the storage is a bottleneck at model load, so depending on your needs it might not be that big of an issue for you, but for example with a 30gb model you can expect to wait 2-10 minutes for it to load into the vram from an HDD, about 1 minute with a sata SSD, and about 4-30 seconds with an NVMe.

Oh, this has nothing to do with racism. He just wanted to remind everyone in case they forgot. This is a well intentioned, pure hearted reminder. No racism here! I mean, you would have to be really stupid to think that all Muslims are terrorists, and he is not stupid! He is really smart actually! Maybe he should do the IQ test with Trump to show the world how smart he is!

Either a bat or a hyper-evolved lesbian

You can sniff the network and see if the TV is connecting anywhere.

It’s very very unlikely that your TV and your device connected to it both support and enable ethernet over HDMI by default. But if you are unsure you can test it by connecting and seeing if the TV is getting a connection.

Personally I also opened my TV and disconnected the wifi card since in theory the TV could also just try to connect to any open wifi in the area without me knowing, but to each their own threat model.
