Seconded with Matrix. All I’m wanting for it is for someone to make a Discord/Revolt UI frontend for Matrix 2.0 and it’ll be a drop in replacement

I’ve found the market is actually warming a bit. Now may be a great time to search casually and find something they’re happier with

Good! I’d be sad to see you folks leave

Try going the other route, and explicitly subscribing to content you enjoy. From what I read you aren’t alone, that all is a firehouse and it’s not all fun. Subscribed to me is a much chiller experience

Do you use all or subscribe to things? I have a good list of communities and I honestly don’t see much if any politics

Good, how is it going over there at feddit.uk? I forgot the last owner just kind of ghosted

Oh yeah, critical component. And vram, in fact I would only consider LLMs on a 3000+ card right now, they require quite a bit of vram

NVidia is great in a server, drivers are a pain but do-able. I have a 3000 series that I use regularly and pass into my kubernetes cluster. NVidia on a gaming rig linux is fine, but there is more overhead with the drivers.

AMD is great in gaming servers, but doesn’t have CUDA, so it’s not as useful in a server environment in my experience - if you’re thinking of doing CUDA workloads like hosting LLMs.

1060 will be a noticeable step in Jellyfin

Yeah we’re small enough that is fine, or just send a DM to one of them

DNS is of course the preferred approach

Exactly. It was a douche and a turd sandwich. Refusing to vote because “they’re a turd sandwich” is simply saying “I’m okay with the douche”. It’s a 2 party system. There are no good candidates. Only one that’s marginally better than the other. Not voting is tacitly voting for the worst one.

I wouldn’t worry about mounting your nfs shares directly to those host unless you need to. Compose has an operator similar to k8s that lets docker itself manage the shares, which is insanely useful if you lose your host. Then you don’t have to have piles of scripts to mount them.

version: "3.2"

services:
  rsyslog:
    image: jumanjiman/rsyslog
    ports:
      - "514:514"
      - "514:514/udp"
    volumes:
      - type: volume
        source: example
        target: /nfs
        volume:
          nocopy: true
volumes:
  example:
    driver_opts:
      type: "nfs"
      o: "addr=10.40.0.199,nolock,soft,rw"
      device: ":/docker/example"

I would really love an official way to transfer ownership of a server. I suppose as long as the domain can transfer and the docker volumes are zipped up it could be migrated anywhere

Here in my city we just opened up a rail line extension. I’ve seen literally hundreds of comments saying it’s not safe, all calling back to a stabbing in February. Which is horrific I know. But that’s one death in a decade.

No one seems to know what to say when I call out the average 100 traffic fatalities every month in our state. That’s just normal apparently, but city bad scary when 1 person in 10 years is killed

That’s actually a big thing I’m into, and especially with the urbanist movement. People in America are very isolated, we live in suburbia, we drive our cars to work, and we work with our tight group of coworkers. We don’t have third places anymore where you meet the people who live around you, and most don’t take transit and aren’t in an urban core so you aren’t surrounded by people like you. Our neighborhoods aren’t mixed in terms of wealth either, so when you do see a neighbor, you’re seeing a mirror of yourself - someone who could afford a similar home in a similar region, and probably is just like you. So everyone becomes the other, and everything becomes very scary. It’s probably why I feel fine walking through downtown. Everyone around me are just people like me, and by going out it reinforces that.

That’s really the problem. When I friends from small towns come and visit I can see they’re on edge the entire time while I’m just doing what I do every day. Yes there’s a person sleeping there. Yes someone is screaming a block down. There’s traffic noise, and the subway isn’t the cleanest - but it’s normal, that’s what I’m used to. It takes a bit of thicker skin, but once you realize nothing is really unsafe about it it gets easier. Problem is voters from tiny 20,000 population places vote with that fear already, and think that cities are unsafe. We can’t bring everyone to the city and hold their hand.

Just another 2 years bro we’re so close we’re almost there it’s in beta bro trust me it’s almost there

I don’t think that’s what anyone suggests. However the opposite is what needs to be called out. Why do police departments consistently ask for more and more funding, usually looking for reasons to spend it (see urban assault vehicles, larger and more militarized forces) when crime is down already? If they’re doing fine with the budget they have, why do we need to give them even more money?

“Defund the police” doesn’t mean we have no police. It means they’re overfunded. Let’s see about defunding them and giving some of that money to other people, like mental health advocates or groups that help with homelessness - some of the main causes of crime. Wouldn’t that mean the police can focus on things they are trained for while also cutting crime down at it’s source? If someone is never desperate enough to mug someone in the first place, doesn’t that mean the crime was prevented?

A big question I ask people is “Why do we feel less safe even though crime is at an all time low?” Not a lot of people have answers, and I think way too many people aren’t aware of that fact. It’s one of the safest times to walk through any downtown core, yet people feel the least safe they ever have.

LLMs use a ton of VRAM, the more VRAM you have the better.

If you just need an API, then TabbyAPI is pretty great.

If you need a full UI, then Oogabooga’s TextGenration WebUI is a good place to start
