yeah, but they mostly smuggle conmsumer chips, the server grade ones are hard to get, even if you live in the west. you basically have to bid against aws, azure, oracle and the likes just to get a few gb200, and even then you need more hardware to get it working (specific mobo, nvlink, etc..).

smuggling a 5090 in a briefcase is one thing, but smugging a nvl72 isn't really feasible.
Also china can't legally buy the good chips because they have a maximum vram import restriction (12GB currently)

like the 5090D:

If China wouldn't have bought it, it would have went into bankruptcy and the Chinese would have gotten that business anyway.
Just that they would have built it from scratch, rather than fixing the dutch garbage.

It was simply the most economic solution for both sides.
For the Chinese, it is cheaper to reuse the scraps of the bankrupt company.
For the Dutch it is better for the company to exist under Chinese leadership, than for it to not exist at all.

From nowadays perspective, we can conclude that it would have been better for the Chinese not to buy it.
Only for the Dutch it was good, because they postponed the bankruptcy (which will happen now anyway).

ARM literally stands for Advanced Risc Machine and if you ever programmed in some form of arm assembly it's much closer to Risc V than some x86 code, really fun stuff, definetely risc but I wouldn't really call a locked down macOS environment Unix
>i thought ARM macs let you boot non-Apple operating systems, it's just that the driver support is basically nonexistent. i may be wrong though
you can but their boot is weird
unfortunately for everyone ever born, just targetting the ISA some computer chip implements during compilation isn't enough to have software running properly on it, since you still have to fuck around with their funky boot sequence and device trees and whatnot and reverse engineer everything
modern macs dont even use uefi anymore
apart from that you can use computers rocking qualcomm chips, i think there's even a snapdragon thinkpad that came out

Is it a controversial opinion on /g/ to say that I preferred when TVs didn't have their own OS frontend?
I'm not saying linear TV didn't have it's problems but at least it always felt like it did what I wanted, not what it thought I wanted.
The golden middle-ground was when you connected a streaming stick to a HDMI port on your dumb-TV.

It's not a controversial opinion I guess. Specially given that it's kinda like the epitome of rampant consumerism: What you get is shit by default, and when it gets shitty AND disfunctional because of a lack of support caused by the fact that your product gets "old" you are supposed to replace it by something else, despite the fact that it will still be able to display images just fine.
Software and a screen shouldn't be in the same package, and if it's done then the execution should be perfect, which is precisely the opposite of what is going on.
Personally I'm a jobless bum but when I get enough money to live on my own my idea is getting one of those non-smart comercial screens and hook it up to a PC built on an ITX case running linux configured to be a media center or something similar.

These days I only use my TV for my PS5. If I push a button on the PS5 controller, it brings the console out of sleep, powers on the TV, and switches the TV input to the PS5 input. When I am done playing I can put the PS5 in sleep mode, the TV will sit on no-input for a couple minutes and then automatically turn off as well.

I actually never have to even touch the TV remote except for the initial setup to change the picture settings.

>>108513939
I used to play Arknights on my TV hooked up to a laptop running an Android emulator, it was actually quite fun that way. Most mobile games don't even look bad on big TVs because mobile screens are basically all the same resolution as TV screens anyway, so other than the controls they're basically designing for the same spec.

All the AI companies basically decided they no longer cared about ethics when scraping the web. Which gave them absolutely huge datasets. Which let the same type of ai software become much more effective. But they needed more hardware to manage all this new data. The ridiculous data scraping with no regards to copyright or anything lead to needing better hardware which gave us our current models.

>>108512057
Text -> sequence of tokens -> vector -> weight.
Think of that last transformation as of lossy compression of your input data. This is roughly what LLM training does.

Btw, regular vector database allows you to search for similar text, phrases and such. But it is designed to give you the exact piece of text. Or, to be precise, the closest neighbours. You make a request with your vector (a question in your natural language), it is placed in the vector database and your closest neighbors are returned as a response.

This LLM stuff is similar, but it is designed to predict next token and it is lossy in it's nature, it rarely preserves 100% of data you put in there.
>>108512487
> LLMs aren't just looking at the previous n words to calculate the next
They are. But words are broken into tokens and tokens turned into vectors and then math kicks in. But it is still just looking at the previous words to predict the next one.

I have a single Proxmox server with ~5 Ubuntu VMs that serve multiple purposes. Unifi controller, Plex, etc.. These VMs barely take up 1% of the CPU I allocate to them, and I set a minimum of 2 GB Balooned to 8 GB. The resource demand is so low. Why should I consider docker? Would an alternative deployment be setting up a Ubuntu VM and installing docker on that, and then deploying my services that way?

I just do an LXC container running Debian and put docker on that.
And no I don't give a shit what nerds say about whether or nor its a good idea to run docker in an LXC. It works great for me.
The reason I like this setup is I can abstract the software away from the system, and then I can further abstract my versioning so I get snapshots. That way, if I somehow ever fuck something up at the configuration level I can just roll back via Proxmox backup. They're pretty small for LXCs. For example, my SearXNG LXC is 700 mb per backup.

I guess docker containers save resources so you don't have to spin up multiple VMs per service like I do, and you can maintain separation of services instead of installing everything on a single VM like a retard.
