I'll vouch for Koboldcpp. I use the CUDA version currently and it has a lot of what you'd need to get the settings that work for you. Just remember to save what works best as a .kcpps, or else you'll be putting it in manually every time you boot it up (though saving doesn't work on Linux afaik, and its a pain that it doesn't).

After watching that vid, I'm sad to see that it's no longer being developed and that the devs didn't leave any open source behind. :( That would have been really cool to try out.

Good rule of thumb to capitalize letters with circle is just to make the circle as large as it can go within the keyboard area. It doesn't have to be centered around the key, just needs to start on the key. For center I usually just circle down from the key as far as I can.

I think it's even funnier that we hand out labels right at the ticket stand to lemmy and turn around to say that labeling people based on norms is bad.

Someone needs to make a comic, you can't even make this shit up. Sign up for your next stake burning at a server near you.

If ICE made it a lifelong goal to eat all the shit I've ever shit in life, they'd still have more purpose and respect than they do now.

i.e. Eat my shit, ICE.

I used to use VSCodium, but in my quest to touch the mouse as little as possible I switched to Neovim.

Fuck me, when you understand you understand. Way to make me feel old.

I 100% do. I think mp3 is a good compromise of sound and space. It's also the format I'm used to. Just like how people swear by physical record. If I'm at a get together and hear mp3 quality, I'm at home.

That being said, I have my absolute favorites in flac for my iPod 5th gen video I rebuilt. The 5th gen's dac, Wolfson, is a solid little dac for the day and age. Got Rockbox loaded up and I'm ace, but I've hard saved all the Apple firmware for every model in case the time came to sell them. Old iPods could be an investment someday and I own every gen in multiples.

I remember when I was picked on at work for how big my Note 3 was. They used to call it "my insecurity". Now it's basically smaller than the smallest standard size.

The Note 3 did look ridiculously large back then. Kind of insane.

I second this. A bare-min install of a majority of distros is going to do you more favors than looking for a distro that is made to be minimal. Honestly, minimal is going to rely more on your DE/WM than distro.

I also agree that Arch is going to require more learning curve if you don't have any experience with it, but that's up to you if you want to put time into it. If you do, I'd recommend vanilla Arch or if you want a GUI installer with a lot of DE/WM options then I'd opt for EndeavourOS.

I concur with Void, but that also may have a learning curve. I like Void, but I haven't tried it myself. I hear nothing but good about Fedora and openSUSE these days, too. I played with NixOS and I really like it, but you will spend months messing with Nixlang before you can really do anything with it (but its really fun to play with).

Good news to me. I can watch reddit and twitter self destruct from the comfort of the Fediverse. Welcome home, fellow refugees.

Yeah, I canceled Prime a few years back and it hasn't hurt me at all. You really get nothing in return, except maybe Prime Day deals and even then you can find the deals elsewhere. I've taken to cutting out the middleman and ordering through the product's actual website to better support them.

Mullvad has been €5 since 2009. Comes to a little over $6. $12 is just highway robbery. You won't regret the switch.

Mullvad has a lot of perks. Like I mentioned, no deals for buying yearly. Get it month by month for the same price. No account connections. You get an ID number and that's it. That ID is your password and username. Pay with nearly anything. Crypto, card, money services, even mail in physical cash.

There's a lot to love about it, and it hands down has some of the fastest tunnels I've used. Nord was always half my internet speed no matter what I connected to. You don't even need Google Play if you want to use it on android. It's open source, so grab it right on F-Droid. Easily supports any OS. If you don't want a GUI, there's a CLI alternative, too.
