Why stop at 60 if you’re just going to make shit up. Say 100% … Or 11000394847292%.

Am in IT. These last few days were pretty annoying. 3 mandatory meetings a day. Scrambling to find the right person for our 3rd party stacks.

The fix was pretty easy once we had it. Just annoyed that this is going to only get worse.

I lost my mom in 2009. I’m still grieving. Having friends and family that can share the experience with helps alot.

Hey man, I’m sorry you went through that. I can’t even imagine this.

You know, that’s fair. Most people do not need a rig like mine. I would still be using my 8 year old computer if my new clients data wasn’t so sensitive that I have to run local inference.

As someone who was also broke and lived in an old Honda, I know what you’re going through and I’ve been there. If you truly want to change your outcome, you gotta find a job that has high growth potential and a low barrier for entry. Personally I worked at a bank for almost a decade. Started as a teller(low barrier,no college needed), ended as a regional manager(high growth). I hated every minute of it. But it gave me a chance to save up and find a career I enjoy.

Good luck my dude. You will be successful. I believe in you.

I mean, it’s not really a toy. It’s a business expense. I use it everyday to make money.

I didn’t believed it until I started using it.

Try it out and let me know if you can get higher.

The model I’m using is a Q4. Unsloth UD-IQ4_XS

Deepseek is open weights. You can just download and use it locally. I would never run deepseek using their servers. Or z.ai servers. That I agree with China is still pretty bad.

I just recently installed Strata which runs on qwen 3.8 flash next. I’m getting over 50 toks. Now a deepseek v4 version is out along with glm 5.3 flash. It’s slower but useable and very capable. All this on a 5080 16GB and 128GB ddr5.

The future for me is going to be open weights and on your own hardware.

He only paid for the rolling down. It’s 2 times the cost for rolling up. 3 times the cost of it’s raining.

I didn’t know what I wanted to do until I was well in my 30s. Prior to that, I worked at a very big retail bank and worked from a teller to a regional manager with over 220 stores under me.

You know what. I fucking hated every moment of that job.

I quit after my mom passed and they gave me 2 weeks off and then I was back into the grind.

I took 1 year off and decided to go into tech. The one place I enjoyed doing on my spare time.

I got my first tech job at 36. And since then have owned my own company and worked for big corporate companies.

You sorta have to try things and hate things before you know what you want.

Low rise. High rise. Low rise. High rise. Die.

America has deported people with student visas for various reasons.

Freedom of speech is a privilege that Taiwan citizens gets to enjoy everyday. Student visa who threatens the sovereignty of our nation does not enjoy that privilege.

I mean, why are they even here if they want her environment to be more like China. No need to wait. One way ticket back to that place.

We locals are not scared tho. We are sorta numb to these kind of attacks. We are actively deporting anyone that suggests reunification through force. Just last week a China-nese student was mocking the president and posting how this person was for taking back the country by force. This person got deported this week.

I live in Taiwan right now and China-nese people are great. Its the CCP that is annoying.

Once every few weeks we would hear fighter jets scramble to meet these CCP pigs because they are constantly flying into it territory.

They have also invaded our politics with a faction in Taiwan openly wanting to sell out Taiwan for their own gains.

They are also brainwashing out kids too with TikTok.

Leave us alone. We just want to exist.

Oh wow…TIL we can play pirated games on the PS5.

I’m running pfsense with wireguard site to site connection between 2 locations. Vlan for my mqtt for my meshtastic. I did have an ad blocker on it but I found it wasn’t very good. It was blocking too many things.

Switched to Adguard on my Proxmox instead.
