Oh so its not just me who thinks its gotten worse then. I was starting to go a little crazy man. It seems like its slowly gottwn worse over time. I wonder if its due to the amount of ai content messing up seo ratings or something

Lol prompts are important for sure. Me and my boss often talk about what you can do with chatgpt when we use it at work amd what kind of prompts we use.

Most models that I’ve played with are only about as good as what you put into it. If you ask it the right questions in the right way, you can get pretty good results.

GPT3.5 has worked well for me. I’ve also run AI on my pc locally using Ollama and lots of different models. Most do well with simple questions or requests.

Llama 3 instruct is what I’ve liked the most so far.

From my understanding, a lot of the products on amazon are resellers that buy stuff from alibaba and then resell it at a markup so it would not surprise me if that was the case.

They all looked the same when i was last on there searching for one.

I bought a dehumidifier off amazon that was “rated” for 800 sq ft.

Not only did it not live up to that promise, but it also served as the worlds shittiest ice maker. Ice formed on the radiator inside and stoped it from dehumidifying the air.

Thats right, you too can have a ice maker that makes ice in the shape of a radiator while ineffectively dehumidifying your home!

Best part was they reached out after I left a one star review and what they could do to change my rating.

I said “Nothing. Make a better product”

From what I’ve heard, most people that are for in office work like having the separation between work and home.

That being said, I think most folks want remote work or at least remote hybrid. It just makes more sense especially for me. I live far from my office (140 mile drive roundtrip), and working 3 days a week from home has been a god send.

88 x 8TB drives? 704 TB of storage?

You got a whole damn data center lol. Good stuff dude. Was this off of ebay or direct from a company? I’m curious to know the total cost.

I still think about this in FMA brotherhood. And im unfortunately familiar with this scene in futurama.

Why you gotta hurt me man?

Fair point. My company keeps drives that get taken out of servers for office use. After that theyre recycled.

Damn thats cool! My work doesnt let me take drives old drives. Though we dont use sas drives so that might be why.

I certainly dont mind used drives for mass storage. I was planning to do some kinda raid anyways.

I haven’t gotten any kind of nas setup yet. Trying to avoid buying too much lol but good to know other folks are using sas drives too.

No use for them you say 🤔

I was actually just looking at buying some sas spinning drives for a nas. Found a seller on Amazon thats unfortunately gone before i could buy em but it was a pretty good deal. Where do you buy yours from?

If you arent already, highly recommend ublock origin. Great broswer extension thats pretty much required to use the intermet nowadays if you dont want to pull your hair out.

Though some of theae websites still have popus like this built in unfortunately. But Ublock helps a lot.

So no one told ya life waa gonna be this way You put much ketchup on them Its ruined your whole day

Its like the cap wasnt on tight enough Now the whole year it feels like, is gonna be more rough

Ill be there for you When the ketchup starts to pour

Ill be there for you I dont want these anymore

Ah I gotcha. Another option im considering is using a separate pc for windows and using a kvm to switch between them. That may be a good option for you as well if you can swing it.

imo dual booting is kinda clunky. Id rather have a vm of windows tbh. I dont like restarting my pc to swtich OS.

But hey if you like it, more power to you man.

Oh that rules! Thanks for sharing that

I’m actually considering making this switch for the same reason. My 1070 ti is still a great card but its starting to struggle a bit with some games.

Openboard is my go-to as well. I like how customizable it is as well. I need bigger keys otherwise i fat finger everything lol.

Thats really good to know. Thanks for taking the time to explain that.

Oh thats neat. I’m assuming that can be configured for other package managers when you’re calling the apt equivalent?
