He was a great comedian but his "I don't vote" shtick really fucked this country over. Moderate, reasonable, people stayed home, thinking 'it doesn't matter', and conservative dickheads took over at the polls. 1996

Thank you for that explanation. My regex impaired ass thought he wanted to hurt generation[x|y|z].

I'm like "what'd we ever do to you?"

At least the article points out that this is a Wall Street valuation, meaning it's meaningless in reality, the company doesn't have that much money, nor is it actually worth that much. In reality, Nvidia's tangible book value (plant, equipment, brands, logos, patents, etc.) is $37,436,000,000.

$37,436,000,000 / 29,600 employees = $1,264,729.73 per employee

Which isn't bad considering the median salary at Nvidia is $266,939 (up 17% from last year).

It sounds like the processor is the real limitation. Plenty of stuff from Windows XP era and before ran in less than 512MB.

Awesome. I'd heard that Pat was one of Redd's old friends from the "Chitlin' Circuit" era of comedy, but I've never actually seen him do standup.

Probably better to ask on [email protected]. Ollama should be able to give you a decent LLM, and RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) will let it reference your dataset.

The only issue is that you asked for a smart model, which usually means a larger one, plus the RAG portion consumes even more memory, which may be more than a typical laptop can handle. Smaller models have a higher tendency to hallucinate - produce incorrect answers.

Short answer - yes, you can do it. It's just a matter of how much RAM you have available and how long you're willing to wait for an answer.

One thing I love about usenet is that it's great if you're just looking for one episode, song, etc and don't want to download a whole collection.

Why replace torrents? Why not use both? It's a bonus if your usenet provider includes a VPN.

Even after the price cut, theirs is still 3x the price of Mercedes' system which works better. I have a feeling Tesla's earnings report won't go well this afternoon. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-earnings-q1-175358835.html

I know right? It's like he and Linus(LTT) are at opposite ends of the spectrum. Long story short, it's not worth it.

In addition, manufacturers will make a smaller and easier to lose format.
