Oof, ok, my apologies.

I am, admittedly, “GPU rich”; I have ~48GB of VRAM at my disposal on my main workstation, and 24GB on my gaming rig. Thus, I am using Q8 and Q6_L quantized .gguf files.

Naturally, my experience with the “fidelity” of my LLM models re: hallucinations would be better.

Self-hosted LLMs are the way.

Necessary Necessity is the mother of invention

Are there any ETFs that I can put money into that short Tesla for mentally handicapped retail investors like me? For example, inverse REITs are an easy way to short the housing market.

Also, the SRA.

How do people become such pieces of shit?

Chrystia Freeland, author of Plutocrats, says that the present trend towards plutocracy occurs because the rich feel that their interests are shared by society:

You don’t do this in a kind of chortling, smoking your cigar, conspiratorial thinking way. You do it by persuading yourself that what is in your own personal self-interest is in the interests of everybody else. So you persuade yourself that, actually, government services, things like spending on education, which is what created that social mobility in the first place, need to be cut so that the deficit will shrink, so that your tax bill doesn’t go up. And what I really worry about is, there is so much money and so much power at the very top, and the gap between those people at the very top and everybody else is so great, that we are going to see social mobility choked off and society transformed.

40 days should be indefinitely until management changes. As in, those who “kissed the ring” must leave.

“Deeply concerned.” How reassuring.

I still don’t want to think he’s a bad person, but for me, why he is a bad person is because zero “too-big-to-fail” CEOs went to jail during the immediate aftermath of the '08 crisis.

He could’ve nationalized the banks that were underwater. Even temporarily. The DoJ had ample evidence, precedent, and prosecutorial room to make heads roll. He was the one person who had power to do so. “Yes, we can!” became “No, I won’t.”

He’s not the only one in my lifetime to screw the American people, but as a young 25-year-old man, his betrayal stung the most in the wreckage of 2008 into '09. I voted for him. I thought I genuinely liked him.

When it came down to it, he’s actually like all the rest. Socialize the losses; privatize the gains.

Eat the billionaires. Sic semper tyrannis.

Pension funds have invested in stocks and bonds for decades.

“Dumb” is the new “smart”.

UnDeshittification

Makes more sense to me if the prefix “en” is used in “enshittification”.

STATIC TYPING FTW. FIGHT ME, YOU BITCH-MADE INVERTEBRATES.

everyone collectively agrees

Evidence of this?

USPS is shit compared to their competitors FedEx and UPS

At what? Packages or letters? Bulk shipping? International? Domestic?

Define, refine, and support your terms and arguments.

Then again you decided on @RoosterBoy@lemm.ee as a handle, so I suppose we should all expect nothing but “cock-a-doodle-doos” out of you.
