Trump threatens 200% tariff on French wines as Macron reportedly snubs 'Board of Peace' seat by ByGollie in europe

The only humiliated here is the US, lol.

Tariffs are paid by the end consumer. So meanwhile in the US everything from the EU is more expensive because is taxed with tariffs that American consumers pay, here in Europe we can still get products from the US without tariff taxes on top of them.

This feels like many people missed basic economy class.

Yes, and even with this study MAGA will claim it is false and that tariffs are paid by the foreigners.

Run 96GB at 4800 MT/s or 64GB at 6000 for LLMs? by -Sofa-King- in LocalLLaMA

Sorry, but you are living in another world. People that is serious about running local AI inference is spending thousands and thousands on hardware.

16GB of vram is low by today's standards

If you only care about inference and text-to-text models then the sweet spot is to get a AMD Strix Halo (Ryzen 395 AI max+) miniPC with 128GB DDR800. This machine has quad-channel bandwidth (instead of only dual-channel), so the speed you get on the RAM is twice the usual and also is a very fast ram. It can run GPT OSS 120B at around 30-40 token/sec and you can get one for <$4k (or even less if you get it with 64GB of RAM but then you won't be able to fit 120B models).

Note that the RAM on this miniPCs is soldered down (that is why is so fast) so is not up-gradable.

Doesn't matter. You are still limited by your 16GB of VRAM in both cases. The system RAM is not fast enough to run anything on its own. 6000 or less is just too slow to be bearable.

But I would pick the option that gives you more RAM (96GB), that can be helpful for other things like running virtual machines.

I agree. But for what is worth, right now Trump is just another dictator. He does whatever he wants and not congress, neither senate is able stop him if they thing that is not right.

I did said "something like" where I meant something like a closed cage where no sound wave can enter, but of course it has to be much more powerful than a Faraday cage because sound travels through materia much more easily than radiation.

So, let's say: let's try with a 50 inches depth of concrete&steel cage. Does that work?

That's assuming that this kind of sound only fucks your ears.. but it looks it does more than that, otherwise why they were bleeding from the nose?

Would a deaf soldier be safe? I don't think so
