They’re Ryzen processors with “AI” accelerators, so an LLM can definitely run on hardware on one of those. Other options are available, like lower powered ARM chipsets (RK3588-based boards) with accelerators that might have half the performance but are far cheaper to run, should be enough for a basic LLM.

Make sure that splitter is specifically marked as a powered HDCP 1.3 splitter, the exploit was patched in 1.4.

Does he have much experience with computers? Not sure if it’d be easier to set him up with something like ChimeraOS that just runs Steam and the game or a basic desktop environment so he can write stuff and browse the internet.

In the aged care home I work in, we’ve had a few who can work a smart phone but most can barely work their TV. Being into RC planes might work in his favour.

I used to pay for Deezer used and a variety of downloaders to download FLACs from them, but then they seemed to break that at some point and a ton of metadata was borked. Also, some artists who were on a bunch of different labels only ever had stuff from just one label on there, which meant a trip to the torrent sites/Soulseek anyway.

I just gave up and went back to Soulseek and RuTracker for my music after a while.

We’ve got DVDFab bots here on Lemmy now?

Welcome to the “90% of web browsers are Chrome, so let’s just optimise for Chrome” issue with the internet. Probably doesn’t help that Edge and about a kajillion different browsers are also just Chrome/Chromium.

Solution? Get the web to stop relying so much on Chrome and Google. It’s just that easy!

A lot of EV auto makers have been arguing that the frequencies that some of the electrics in the cars run at interfere with AM radio reception.

Not sure if that’s a legitimate argument or they just don’t want to pay for extra shielding to block out the noise.

Who knows, some of them could have grown up to be Hamas fighters. Can’t be too careful when you want to clear out and pave over the Gaza strip.

Mastodon is powered by sex toy companies, essay taking services and online casinos. Doesn’t seem that out of place to me.

EDIT: For all the down voters, please peep the Mastodon sponsor list: https://joinmastodon.org/sponsors#supported_by. Website boy doesn’t get off any more scot-free than anyone else.

T.S is also based on Mastodon and got caught using their code without attribution. That was the joke.

Also, obligatory death to america

SEK have done a ton of animation work for foreign firms. This is probably the only way they’re getting outsourcing work done now since all of the sanctions were put in place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEK_Studio

I run AntiX on my EeePC 701, the original with a 630mhz Celeron. Runs a treat.

I used a Hisense A5 Pro CC phone for a few months as my daily driver. For books, colour eink is okay at best but yeah, contrast sucks. It pretty much always will with the extra layers of filtering needed for each colour.

Outside of static pages of text and images, you pretty much need to drop colour depth to pretty garish levels for a decently responsive user experience. It’s a nice idea but really isn’t very good in practice.

I have a Milk-V Mars but it really isn’t performant enough for any task I have for an SBC. Distro support seems to be a pain too, as the provided Debian image isn’t meant to run on repos aside from a Debian snapshot from 2022.

I really do hope things improve. I’m planning on moving over to an RK3588 ARM board for desktop daily drivering but one day I’m hoping a decently affordable RISC V alternative will turn up.
