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.
>>108505954It'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.
>>108506405Like what? Most of these TVs run Android. You want to play Candy Crush on your TV?
>>108508460>Brightness slider on the remote We can dream Anon. We can dream...
>>108508132reading this made my head hurt for a brief moment.
>>108506020These 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.>>108513939I 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.

can anyone explain in layman terms how LLMs of today differ from shit like auto suggest, akinator web genie or siri etc from the pastis it not fundamentally the same tech just super scaled up to be mega inefficient and brute forced

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.
>>108512057Text -> 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 nextThey 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 love you Mr. Cargo Ship Whale. You make hosting servers so painless.I should start an IT business where I stand up Docker servers for people.
>>108515888>>108515938I 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?
>>108516540I 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.
>>108515897why would you use docker on windows
>>108516198Docker is Globohomo LitePodman is Globohomo Max
>>108516641I 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.

First it was OAI with Sora, now Anthrophic.It's unironically over for AIfags.
>>108516001Yep, they need to beg dario for good boy tokens.
>>108516020Only if you count in their own bs pricing. Their API is overpriced. But the reason they always try to charge more is because they have to cover the expenses and research, data loicensing and such.That's partially why chink inference is cheaper. They just steal shit and don't have to cover anything buy hardware costs. They are likely making good money on that.
>>108516411Does this chart not include Gemini? Or is its marketshare really too small to count?
>>108516110That is because they are de facto #1 when it comes to vibecoding bs. Others are barely catching up, mostly jut chasing after graphs, not real performance.
>>108516570>Does this chart not include Gemini?Yeah, it wasn't included but there are other studies that place Google at third place, closing the gap with OpenAI at ~20%

>>108516096use hetzner, unironically.their pricing is electricity based, meaning you can get cheaper servers in countries with less regulations.also you get free 30TB egress/month, OVH claims that all egress is 'free' until they kick you out, like they did with tcp shield.
>>108516096>>108516366hetner and ovh both raised their prices recently blaming AI. hetzner now has an expensive setup cost. OVH basically doubled my VPS cost because of AI. that's right, the hardware that is currently in a rack somewhere and up and running got more expensive because of the RAM shortage. i have to pay extra for other new customers.
>>108516490makes sense from an accounting perspective, since easing strategies have changed due to ever increasing costs. For instance, amazon went from 3 year easing on their GPU, to a 6 year easing process, at the same time, nvidia doubled the speed at which they ship new gpus. the math doesn't add up, so they have to charge more.but it's probably just because they know they can milk their customers, using ai as an excuse

Less than 24 hours ago I fell for the raspberry pi meme, because the Rustdesk server I was running on a Gen1 T14 stopped working (again) after Windows forced an update>inb4 hurr durr windowsI'm now running my rust desk server and Pihole on the OS that shipped with the RP5. I cheated and just used Tailscale because I currently don't have the mental bandwidth to do things otherwise (I also don't have a static IP). Going to get unbound running later. What else should I run on it? It has 8gigs of ram if that matters.

>>108516484Neat - My company isn't that small and won't hire on a basic referral, and I was on the hiring committee with a previous role. I've seen shitty resumes from shitty people, and interviewed a lot of shit.I'll give it a chance if the right opportunity hits the right milestones.

>>108488113Based, I have these right in front of me. On full volume I can hear them blasting out on the curb 30 feet away from the house. I have to keep the volume knob at about 40% and still turn my video volume down to about 10%.
