My guess is that if a 4090 is bottlenecked 5% on pcie 3.0 (although I think it’s closer to 10%). Also if pcie 4.0 is double the speed as 3.0, and pcie 5.0 is double 4.0. Then the bottleneck will be closer to 10% if running a 5080 on pcie 3.0.

You might be better off with a 4000 series, unless you got a new motherboard that won’t be bottlenecked much by the pcie version jump.

When you get home, she turns on the TV and it’s 3/4 of the way through a rerun of the Beetlejuice animated show premier. You hear your mom cough and light another.

- Comment on Are there any uncensored LLM available publicly? 2 weeks ago:
You are right that something that most others will host for free are going to be censored since otherwise they might have some kind of responsibility legally. I learned this while trying to diagnose an issue with my cars door lock.
At the end of the day, anything you ask some hosted llm is being recorded so if you actually want something uncensored or something that gives you a sense of freedom then the only real option is to self host.
Luckily, it’s very simple and can even be done on a low powered device if you pick the right model. The amount and type of ram you have a will dictate how many parameters you can run at a decent speed.
Here’s 3 options with increasing difficulty (not much however) written for Arch Linux: 0bin.net/paste/nkUrzIRo#GZrM NXK-QiPcv1bHWnGsviY8…
- Comment on "Border Czar" Tom Homan unveils new deportation plan 3 weeks ago:
Having a restricted form of birthright citizenship is not the same as having no form of it. However there are more countries then I thought that do not have it at all.
At present, 33 countries in the world (and two territories) have unrestricted birthright citizenship, also known as jus soli, and another 32 nations have some form of restricted birthright citizenship
- Comment on "Border Czar" Tom Homan unveils new deportation plan 3 weeks ago:
The families - who potentially have young children born in America - will be told to decide for themselves whether to exit the country together or be broken up.
That sounds like a weird way to say that they will be deporting US citizens.

- Comment on Does the USA simply have no food safety standard at all? 4 weeks ago:
You’re not wrong. That sugar and sodium is going to do a lot to the human body. However I think we should understand what plastics (especially when heated) do too.
- Comment on Does the USA simply have no food safety standard at all? 4 weeks ago:
This is a very complex and nuanced issue seeing as plastics as a class of materials can vary greatly in its manufacturing process and if any coatings are used. Some materials have varing use cases, also new materials, coatings, and process combinations are created constantly. Additionally a material might not have noticeable effects on a person for 10+ years.
The American government could pass legislation and studies could be done for both old and new materials and manufacturing process with an introduction of an approval anf inspection process. However, did you know that worrying about what corporations do to Americans is “woke”?

Its called surveillance capitalism.

I see thank you. I’m not too aware of how this works but do you know if BlueTwelve is able to use a different publisher if they were to make a sequel? Or does Annapurna have some claim to the IP too?
- Comment on meow_irl 3 months ago:
Unfortunately, with what happened at Annapurna, any sequel will be made by a completely different team of developers.
Honestly, it would be better to wish for a unique spiritual successor than a sequel from a Company that would rather replace their devs then to negotiate with them.
- Comment on Dynamic pricing 4 months ago:
But, you know if a business changes to dynamic pricing and their next quarterly numbers shows that the vast majority of people didn’t swallow it, and revenue is hugely down, they would undo it in a second.
You would be right if we assume that
- The people leading these companies are making informed data driven decisions.
- Companies majorly made money through selling goods/services
However once a company is a certain size or in the correct position it’s more about showing a growth potential to investors, then actually proffiting from selling goods/services. Investors is really how these companies make money now. I’m not an economist so I’m not sure if this is still technically capitalism when the majority of profits come straight from investors but to me it sounds much more like a ponzi scheme.
My point being is that in a best case scenario, a nationwide boycott could take place and a company makes $0 gross income. But they can still profit if they can convince their investors that they are taking the right steps to position themselves in “this new economy”. Now realistically someone is still going to buy their products and any boycott effort will just have minor effects. The absolute worst case scenario for anyone actually in charge of making decisions like this at a large company is they get a golden parachute and hop over to another place.
Just like you said, why would they turn down free money?

- Comment on What the fuck happened to YouTube!? 5 months ago:
For Android, NewPipe is great. I think I prefer FreeTube now however. Mostly because of the ability to use the Invidious api, built in SponsorBlock, settings coss-compatibility with the desktop version, and a better way to organize and export data (IMO). However, freetube android does has a few rough spots that newpipe doesn’t have, so ymmv.
