>>109940099>>109940129>>109940150>>109940151>We've halved your allotted compute on your """20x""" plan so more important people can pay us more for the same product's outputs in less time!i guess i'm moving to claude
>>109940179>Anthropic isn't going to copy this at the first opportunity
>>109940197well they haven't yet and opus 5.5 is sota so i'll enjoy it while it lasts i guess
>>109940179Will do it too, 6 more days before the end of my $200 plan. Time to waste those banked reset.When I moved to the $20 on chatgpt, they nerfed it one week after, then I moved to the $200 the next month, and then they nerfed it 3 weeks after. Enough is enough.
>>109940223inb4 you're the reason they keep nerfing plans and you bring it to claude too
>OpenAI wants to be the new Microsoft Officeyawn
>>109940237Well, if Claude start to nerf shit after next week then....
>>109940179subscriptions are only good for getting your feet wet. once you do you should spend time replacing subscription reasoning with your own model stack. once you do that you start actually learning how models work and why subscriptions are to be used maybe 20% of the token time. most serious teams shoot for 5% "frontier". so your $20 or $200 should 10x or 20x usage because you are learning to build independently.
>shameless Apple mimickingpathetic
>>109940257okay well i'm still going to buy a claude 20x sub because i get more out of that
HOLY SHIT. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING (nothing actually changes)
>OMG LE HECKIN' TIBO RESETyeah my weekly allowance is still halved though
Wow must be a lot of resets coming, it's taking awhile to load.
well that was shit
>>109940291that's fine if this is all you know how to do and don't want to learn anything else. it's more than enough for a lot of people. I push billions of tokens a week so this kinda thing doesn't work for me.
was that even 20 products or did i fall asleep and miss like 16 of them
>>109940378>6.1 Sol>dots>Jev with Visionthere was a 4th?
>>109940378anon.... it was you all along....you are the product
Again the 100 math results were mentioned, but not released.
I use planning mode a lot and generate a phase-oriented outline. That's where I've found value in Claude Code's quickness. I'm okay with the actual coding and implementation part being slow.I have a couple of laptops with i5-8250U CPUs and around 8 to 16 GB of RAM. What options do I have for running something good locally?Make no mistakes.
>>109940428even people with good specs don't have good choices for local models.
>>109940428>8 to 16 GB of RAM>running something good locallyIf those arent on some lite linux distro forget it. You can get summarizers and document sorters with the small gemma 4 models. but anything else will be super slow or not fit. maybe a small qwen for some coding but if its not the 27b 3.8 its not great either. I guess depending on how many laptops you could set up a swarm of small models for fun? but you are going to get like 10-15 tk/s max on just ram.
>>109940428use claude to build automations designed to replace claude
>>109940450Damn, I’ll keep searching, but for now, $20 for Claude Code is a deal that pays for itself. I doubt it’s going to stay this cheap, though.>>109940479At the moment, I use Gemma-4-E4B-it-Q4_K_M and OpenHermes-2.5-Mistral-7B.Q5_K_M with llama.cpp. Integration is my biggest pain point right now. Those models are okay, but I don’t trust them 100%.
My personal benchmark is for every new model release I try to get a model that manages to make a chrome extension which gets rid of pic related (and I don't mean the popup, this is trivial, I mean the 5-15 seconds of fake buffering that they are doing before the video starts)and so far none of them have managed, including Fable and Astra on Ultra.AGI has not been achieved
>>109940501>I’ll keep searching >>109940501>>109940450doesn't know how to use models or computing in general
>>109940549why would they fake the buffering?unless your extension plugs into the nearest server, you're not gonna be able to fix that
>>109940315Maybe I can swap from sol medium to sol highWait a minute it's 1/5th the price of astra, not 1/5th the price of sol. I thought I was getting a 5x efficiency upgrade.What a disappointment. Well fuck this I'm going to bed, not waiting around for that trash. Probably not even going to use it since it'll still blow through my usage.
>>109940549>fake bufferingkek brainworms
>>109940577anti-adblock measurenot him but I can't even play 720p videos anymore, they buffer every 2 minutes
>>109940542You can try the qwen 3.5 9b and bonsai 2 but they arent to be really trusted either. its okay if you let them reason but it will take forever at those speeds.If you are willing to rig you can take a 1070ti which is like $90 and hook it up to run a qwen 35a3b which is a lot better but you will have to set up a egpu and the loading the model times will be horrible and i dont know if it will be actually fast as it loads and unloads experts could drag you to single digit tk/s or prefill.
>>109940583Oh it's the same api price as gpt 6 sol. I'll switch to it and stay on medium then and give it a shot.
At work so not watching but was the alleged reset banked or normal reset, deciding if I need to use a banked to keep working as I was expecting a normal one today
>>109940577>>109940588it's a literal thing. I have gigabit fiber. 4k video streams on netflix load instantly but youtube takes its sweet time buffering 20 seconds before loading a 720p videosee https://community.brave.app/t/how-to-deal-with-fake-buffering-on-youtube/654516
>>109940626banked
>>109940628>i have niggabitfiburr>but i use brave>why is it not working??? kek wormed
>>109940628>bravengmi
>>109940633can you even read you turbofaggoti am using chrome, the brave forum link is just an explanation of the issue
>>109940610thanks dude I will explore the 1070ti option futher.
>>109940628mine does it for maybe 2 secondsstill don't see how another extension would fix this - if it's fixable. would probably have to fix ublock
>>109940645google fingerprinted you as a brave user, uninstall brave
>>109940645>chrome
>>109940645Doesn't change the fact you put in a brave link
>>109940549which tools and mcps are you giving the model to work with?
Is there a way to update Claude's context without forcing a response? For example I want to tell it I changed color from one to another and to remember that in the future.
While local models are the endgame for this AI bubble, there’s no reason not to abuse subsidized tokens as much as possible in the meantime. When the bubble pops, hardware prices will come back down, and you can run the local larger models you want.
the only good thing that happened today
>>109940702sounds like you're looking for the pre-prompt? or just have it update memory
>>109940702auto-memory should do that all by itselfhttps://claude.dev/blog/the-new-rules-of-context-engineering-for-claude-5-generation-models/#then-memory-in-claudemd-files
>>109940549There is a trick for that: load comments, if you scroll long enough for the comments and the right side bar, you get the video buffering less and almost insta load.Try it you will see.
>>109940718>When the bubble pops
>>109940718>here’s no reason not to abuse subsidized tokens as much as possible in the meantime.yeah using it to make your set ups better.>the bubble pops.If. we could still be on track for own nothing and renting compute they will try it.
25% more usage for 250% the cost... I am genuinely speechless.
>>109940749did you miss the sol price-cuts? sol costs now half as much. opus-class model for the price of sonnet.
>super long days at work this week>don't have time to vibe until friday
Newfag to vibecoding stuff.I wanna restart my Claude instance and get back into working while not eating so many tokens. Should I tell it to write a design document based on what it did by now? Anything else worth throwing in?
