FYI, a big single clove like this is a sign it was harvested too early and it won’t have as strong a garlic flavor.

Jerkin off punks for 15 dollars a man…

Yeah I checked out her mastodon and it’s pretty active and she’s been on mastodon for 10 years, which is a mighty long time for any fediverse account.

Now you are going to tell me that Woody Nelson didn’t die in a South African prison.

Great questions for @taylorlorenz@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social

@TaylorLorenzz@mastodon.social @taylorlorenz@mastodon.social Thoughts?

@TaylorLorenz@mastodon.social get up in here we yakking about you.

I don’t have her number.

Happy Friday!

Mostly time. I didn’t buy the machine to run someone else’s models. I bought it to run my own models and the machine has a job to do. Tinkering with self hosting llms, I guess. I appreciate them as models. But my machine has a day job.

Yeah I can run any open weight models which leave me enough vram to not crash. But its a bit of a gotcha because you also need enough system ram to load the model. I use it to heavily parallelize training tasks… Honestly, I need to tinker with it more but I’m pretty annoyed at how ollama has gone deep in the paint as basically being a tool for accessing cloud models.

Same. I’ve never had your wife turn me down either.

Not sure why Canadians acting like they don’t know what hammers or gratuitous acts of vandalism are.

Yeah I do a ton of machine learning research and like, distance between the database and the place I’m doing the processing really matters. My NAS is on the other side of my house and it would be great to have maybe two NAS, a primary one for like, my movies, personal files, old projects etc, and then this one right next to it for active projects.

Right now I’m having to do it all on my primary machine, which means I often have to freeze updates for long periods of time once I get a particular compute configuration set up for a particular project.

Yeah I’ve got the 128 gb Asus one as a processing machine, and honestly, I wish I would have just got it as a server. For my purposes, I need this bad-ass GPU/ CPU much closer to the storage.

Honestly, just a basic 2:1 is fine for me considering I’m rarely if ever running my compute locally.

Keep going I’m almost urged.

This is what I’m drooling over currently:
