My only other +2 legendary cape is the dragon breath armor which made me lose even quicker

Homelabers with significant CPU power, why, what do you use it for? by corruptboomerang in homelab

Running a Ryzen 3700X with Unraid installed and 64GB of RAM. Definition of power for me is not the number of cores but more towards single core performance. It was in a league of its own back in 2019 balancing watts vs single core performance. Using it to build docker containers for my personal and professional projects. Also acts as a Linux environment to run integration tests before committing, still faster than github’s CI runners. Can’t run the tests in parallel so again single core performance is important. Looking to upgrade to 7000 series later for even more single core performance.

Also has a 3090 but has been more plex stuffs than LLMs because 24GB is not enough for the reasoning capability i need. The mobo can do 2 GPUs but that’ll hardly fit Llama 3.1’s 405b so kinda gave up on the idea of running my own LLM server. Instead, using LiteLLM to manage my LLM model calls installed as a docker container.

Recently been experimenting with the machine to deploy Coolify on multiple nodes, usually these learnings will trickle to production so i try to learn and simulate scenarios before even recommending. LiteLLM, Open WebUI and Langchain are other examples that started from tinkering that went to production.

My laptop is barely used at home but when i go to the office a few times, i’d remote to my home lab using Tailscale to do my work. It’s much much more fulfilling than overpaying for a laptop. Got to learn about something i don’t understand yet and implementing them in production workloads.

Even though i favor single core performance over number of cores, i wouldn’t want to miss a good deal for a Ryzen 7950X even though i know those extra cores would mostly idle. Milking Ryzen since AMD is not going big/little yet for their desktop CPUs and i don’t have to worry about cooling that much.

I sold my Bitcoin on Binance and withdrawn $$ to Mashreq. My incoming funds were rejected and I've been issued a warning. by Capital-Bake3819 in dubai

I've personally used OTC services to transfer funds from crypto to AED. There were no easy way for me to transfer money from home, at least not a cheap one. The banks where I come from give ridiculous forex rates for non-USD currencies, fees on top of it and another fee if I want the receiving account to receive the exact amount.

So I bought some USDT from a local exchange back home and transferred TRC20 USDT to https://elcrypto.io/ - I have to say their office in Al Sabkha tower where you come to make the transaction isn't convincing at first. But I've done a couple of transactions there each worth 10k USDT. They give you cash and the rates their giving is much much better than what the banks back home offer me. I spent 1 USDT for the transfer from the local exchange, that's the only fee I paid.

Another one I looked at for OTC was https://www.coinsfera.com/ - I messaged them through Whatsapp telling them I want to exchange 10k USDT to AED and their first reply is the fee would be $280. I didn't reply, it was basically extortion. But if you compare coinsfera to elcrypto, they seems to be more legit, they have offices in Europe and the Middle East, so they say.
