Never forget the bribery of the criminals serving on the Supreme Court.

It is a shit show from top to bottom.

Endless Sky. The save game is a text file. Save a file on the mobile app (F-Droid), and on the PC (Flatpak), and note the last line. This is the line you must swap to transfer the save file. It is the first game I have played on both practically. The game mechanics are different between the two and you need to alter your strategy accordingly. On mobile, I travel with a ship setup for boarding pirate vessels and never target enemies directly; all of my guns are automatic turrets. I just use a fast ship and travel with a large group of fighters. It is more of a grind on mobile, but it can be used to build up resources and reserves. The game is much bigger than it first appears to be. You need to either check out a guide or explore very deep into the obscure pockets of the map.

I won't touch the proprietary junk. Big tech "free" usually means street corner data whore. I have a dozen FOSS models running offline on my computer though. I also have text to image, text to speech, am working on speech to text, and probably my ironman suit after that.

These things can't be trusted though. It is just a next word statistical prediction system combined with a categorization system. There are ways to make an LLM trustworthy, but it involves offline databases and prompting for direct citations, these are different from Chat prompt structures.

I'm sure they will eventually try to force ID's because it would be profitable for criminal data theft ads stalkers. This is all about corrupt money and exploitation. Billionaires are worthless parasites that have no right to exist in a Democratic system. Fuck the US fascist oligarchy party.

Oobabooga is the main GUI used to interact with models.

FYI, you need to find checkpoint models. In the available chat models space, naming can be ambiguous for a few reasons I'm not going to ramble about here. The main source of models is Hugging Face. Start with this model (or get the censored version):

https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/llama2_7b_chat_uncensored-GGML

First, let's break down the title.

• This is a model based in Meta's Llama2.
• This is not "FOSS" in the GPL/MIT type of context. This model has a license that is quite broad in scope with the key point stipulating it can not be used commercially for apps that have more than 700 million users.
• Next, it was quantized by a popular user going by "The Bloke." I have no idea who this is IRL but I imagine this is a pseudonym or corporate alias given how much content is uploaded by this account on HF.
• This model is based on a 7 Billion parameter dataset, and is fine tuned for chat applications.
• This is uncensored meaning it will respond to most inputs as best it can. It can get NSFW, or talk about almost anything. In practice there are still some minor biases that are likely just over arching morality inherent to the datasets used, or it might be coded somewhere obscure.
• Last part of the title is that this is a GGML model. This means it can run on CPU or GPU or a split between the two.

As for options on the landing page or "model card"

• you need to get one of the older style models that have "q(numb)" as the quantization type. Do not get the ones that say "qK" as these won't work with the llama.cpp file you will get with Oobabooga.
• look at the guide at the bottom of the model card where it tells you how much ram you need for each quantization type. If you have a Nvidia GPU with the CUDA API, enabling GPU layers makes the model run faster, and with quite a bit less system memory from what is stated on the model card.

The 7B models are about like having a conversation with your average teenager. Asking technical questions yielded around 50% accuracy in my experience. A 13B model got around 80% accuracy. The 30B WizardLM is around 90-95%. I'm still working on trying to get a 70B running on my computer. A lot of the larger models require compiling tools from source. They won't work directly with Oobabooga.

It's no freaking mystery anywhere. Kids are too damn expensive because just living is too damn expensive. The real fix is massive land reform that absolutely murders the real estate bubble with a nuclear bomb. Regulate the availability of funds directly to the minimum wage. You work, you live a decent life with a good balance. Build dense housing with tight local communities and perfect transportation so we're always in contact with people in our communities. Babies will be popping up like weeds.

An article about one of the poorest European countries is not really relevant. They don't have the same zoning stagnation nonsense that makes housing unaffordable. The stupid incentives that exploded home loan amounts combined with 100 years without zoning reforms are the problem.

Pee-wee, Mr. Rogers, Sesame Street, Bozo, and Reading Rainbow are some of my fondest memories; when we were all Pee-wees, and he was Herman.

Hey there Lionir. Thanks for the post. Can the Beehaw team please look into copying or getting the creator of this bot to work here? https://lemmy.world/u/PipedLinkBot@feddit.rocks

I think the person that created that bot is somehow connected to the piped.video project. I know the whole privacy consciousness thing isn't for everyone, but this bot's posts are quite popular elsewhere on Lemmy.

FYI, the main reason to use piped.video links is that it is setup as an alternative front end for YT that automatically routes all users through a bunch of VPNs to help mitigate Alphabet's privacy abuses and manipulation.

We really need to crush the parasitic billionaire problem that funds the right and leverages convenient idiots of the world by stoking their prejudice and hate. There will always be some innocent whipping boy to toss in a camp. Pitchfork politics is never about the victims it is about controlling the conversation and distraction. Like in the USA, the only reason for the stupidity is to prevent closing the loopholes that enable the corrupt oligarchy. No one can investigate and make reasonable laws when they are confronted by a constant barrage of absurd nonsense. It just needs to be so inflammatory that no one can dominate the conversation with the message I'm posting now to regain any sense of rational control. The USA has 10% of the laws and protections of any other western nation. This is why the parasites exist, what they are funding, and what is being exported world wide. Russia proved that power is all about leveraging the convenient idiots. Australia and Japan have solved this issue already. Anyone with tens of billions of dollars is a worthless subhuman criminal.

Google is broken because AI is making it obsolete. I bet in 10 years google will be a historical footnote.

They should do more than paint the thing. Give it a tour of the seabed.

I was a buyer for a chain of high end bike shops for many years. Amazon really only sells junk products. Any real quality brands of niche products can't support amazon and the typical brick and mortar business inventory structure. Like, I spent between $100k-$500k in preseason bike brand commitments for 3 stores. If any of those brands decided to allow sales on Amazon I would drop them immediately. Multiply this by every bike shop that exists. This is more than Amazon could compete with by a long shot. The issue is that every Buyer in a shop knows what they are able to sell effectively and buys accordingly. I tailored my orders for every shop independently. It would be impossible for Amazon to predict and fund high end bikes at this scale.

"So what," you say, "it's just bikes." No it is not. The bike brands are usually part of a group of brands that include several parts, clothing, and accessory products. These are part of preseason commitments with the bike brands too. So all of these are not sold on Amazon either. This is the case with most things, the best or even decent stuff is not sold on Amazon.

The worst thing with amazon is that they aggregate all identical products in their warehouses. This makes it trivial for a seller to insert fake goods into a product pool and it is completely untraceable back to them.
