Ya I'm so sick of hearing "can't mention that, YouTube will demonetize me" on videos (or what amounts to that with censored language, topics, blurred guns now, etc.) Just makes it very clear we're living in a corporate echo chamber where everything must align with what advertisers want. How about what the viewers want??? Fuck the advertisers

Ultra 7 155H with six P-cores, eight E-cores, and eight graphics cores; or an Ultra 7 165H with the same number of cores but marginally higher clock speeds.

WTF is Intel smoking with these naming schemes I can't even understand what this means. Thank fuck AMD is an option.

Ya somethings wrong with your GoTrax. I'd reach out to them for warranty. Mine (same model) goes close to advertised range and I weigh 160lbs

You could try llamaCPP, I think its configured to run better on cpu's

I would recommend not leaving spotify with the screen on to start... could try leaving an all white screen on max brightness for 5 minutes and see if that helps?

So far this actually seems like a good, privacy respecting implementation of a chatbot. Good for those who don't want to go the full offline selfhosted route IMO

Put me on the waiting list, I'd buy a battery that's been strategically re-located from some rich fucks car to my solar setup.

If you're driving a brand new $60k vehicle (EV or not) and don't ask for replacement value coverage you're living fast n loose IMO

 

Wondering if anyone has a workaround to treat controller inputs as something that will keep the computer awake. I like to have my power settings set to timeout the screen after a short period of inactivity due to having an OLED laptop screen (minimize burn in). Problem is if I'm playing a game with a controller, it doesn't detect that as being "active" and times the screen out. Right now I just go and change the power settings every time I want to play a game with a controller, but it'd be nice if there is a proper way to recognize controller inputs as well, inputs.

From some preliminary searching it seems the problem is they likely don't present as HID devices on Linux despite doing so on w1ndows. I couldn't find a solution to that; my instincts say that would need to be fixed at the driver level but its above my pay grade.

Thanks for any tips!

OS: Nobara (Fedora) 38
