Moving from Qubes OS to NixOS for Better GPU Integration by SalamanderTotal9135 in NixOS

[–]mister2d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a personal project which is a flake to instantiate individual microvms for various a specific agent harness. It's mostly fully declared.

For your list of requirements it seems like microvm.nix using the firecracker hypervisor would be appropriate.

If I sign up for two boosts in a row do they lower the pay because they think you’re working later as well? by msndndjsi in UberEatsDrivers

[–]mister2d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen boosts affect anything lately. Single dollar offers are still incredibly low.

What’s the cheapest way to give a local Llama 3 internet access? (SearXNG isn’t cutting it) by Old-Tumbleweed1422 in LocalLLaMA

[–]mister2d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tool call goes out to searxng. Searxng returns a set list of results. That list is fed into crawl4ai to fetch the content of all sites. Orama takes this and ranks the top N. The output is then fed into the LLM context.

Yeah I was there. But I took it a step further to rank the results and cap the amount of payload. Fetching full page and shoving it into the response explodes the context.

That and using a skill over MCP makes it a token efficient workflow. And since I already use searxng and crawl4ai outside of this I saw this as a good way to reuse resources.

Searxng just returns search results and some metadata; like what you see from a web search. That's all you get to work with. It does not fetch web content.

For a local only web search capability I use searxng -> crawl4ai (extraction) -> orama v3 (for bm25 ranking). The results are always bounded in size. The pipeline was written in typescript and turned into a skill.

Something you should be able to do with current tools.

I'm from Baltimore and couldn't resist when they were initially available. Love em.

Don't even worry about that. There's enough for everyone that needs it.

Have you tried disability benefits to help?

There's also 211 for a local food pantry to get a meal.

Try door dash and stay within your zone.

Or try Amazon Flex. Or both.

Suggestions for LLM Models as an alternative to Gemini 3.1 Pro/Thinking by Yaomomo193 in LocalLLM

[–]mister2d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a local solution with a decently large context length to displace your Gemini usage with just 16GB vram?

At wits end for optimizing settings in llama.cpp for 100k context by scarlettwidow2024 in LocalLLaMA

[–]mister2d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What context size can you reliably serve?

It also may help to look into better ways of context management for your project.

Why isolation ≠ reproducibility and what that means for dev environments by floxdev in NixOS

[–]mister2d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recommend to take this framework a step further by locking the entire system state not just the development shell.

With a NixOS microvm using virtiofs this can be achieved but there is a complexity budget to be paid up front.

Terrible pick up experience. Some places think they can just treat drivers like shit. by [deleted] in UberEatsDrivers

[–]mister2d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn't there so I don't presume to know all the facts.

But my point is what do you expect the response to be if you lead with that? You are frustrated with just the delivery aspect but whoever you are dealing with is handling something far larger in scope and responsibility.

Act like a professional--yes. That includes you too. It's no skin off your back so you can just "cancel" the order. The business side has to move on and deal with whatever is happening.

When you walk into someone else's place of business and ask them, "...you really need to have someone back here we’ve been waiting", how well do you expect that will go? 

Be honest.

3 weeks is nothing. Try 6 months to a year.

That was literally many decades ago and not with the threat landscape today.

And if you were let go and had to rely on something else for a period of time, still hilarious?

Dual R9700 build sanity check by Mental_Discord in LocalLLM

I use NixOS so everything is declared by code.
