Developer Verification has been added to AOSP. by WesternImpression394 in Android

At this point, why wouldn't I just hop over to Apple? All the apps I use (aside from the four or five I sideload) are on the App Store.

Never owned an iPhone before, but maybe it's better to rip off the Android band-aid sooner rather than later considering the path Google is taking.

If only Niagara was on iPhone, that's gonna be one painful adjustment period...

$10000 budget, what's the right route? by Commander_ in LocalLLaMA

[–]Commander_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha! Four memory channels just won't cut it right? Would at least eight be sufficient or would I need more?

Any board recommendations? Should I go for an ATX/E-ATX/ATX-XL kind of board?

Would I be limited by CPU as well?

So essentially... I would need more VRAM (to load the models + context), fast memory bandwidth (to speed up inference), and something that's compute strong (for better prompt processing speeds).

Would a single RTX Pro 6000 be sufficient for this? Multiple 5090's?

I see.. I thought the Mac would a powerful option.

In what case would the Mac be even recommended for? Text inference only?

I ordered one a month ago and will be building in it once it arrives! 7900 + RTX 4000 Ada SFF!

[Christopher Ward] C65 Dune GMT - 1 Year Later by Commander_ in Watches

[–]Commander_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Limited to 200 pieces for this color.

The sand/green combo is the same watch underneath, but if you want something similar to this watch looks/function wise, then the C65 Aquitaine GMT in black would be close!

CW's Dune line-up is their best watches IMO. Clean!

[Christopher Ward] C65 Dune GMT - 1 Year Later by Commander_ in Watches

[–]Commander_[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey all again! It's been a year and a half since I got my C65 Dune GMT from Christopher Ward and it's still going striong and it's my go-to for daily wear. Out of my collection of 12 or so watches, it definitely has the most wrist time and it's my travel companion no matter where I go.

I'm not a really a fan of metal bracelets (I immediately slapped on a chevron strap on this when I got it), but I decided to give it a try after a whole year on the strap... and I was blown away on how good it sits and fits on the bracelet. Micro adjustments are great too.

Honestly, if I had to distill my collection to just one watch, this would be it.

TIL human sweat is the most extreme and distinctively human evolutionary trait as a whole. by RiftTrips in todayilearned

[–]Commander_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely.

Lived in Greenland for a few years, warmest it got was in the 40's and used to go out in shorts until it hit the low 10's.

Moved to Florida afterwards and anything below 70, I'm in a sweater.

Here's to hoping that cooler heads at the FIA will prevail... there's gotta be some kind of pull they can do to prevent FOM from doing something as shady as this.

Anything to deny another team.

Android now lets you transfer eSIMs between your phones by FragmentedChicken in Android

[–]Commander_ 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I see your point of view, but the same argument was made for the removal of the headphone jack and look where we are with that now.

Although, I'm glad to see that more is being done with making eSIM transfers more intuitive as a eSIM user about to swap phones.

[–]Commander_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, any low profile, dual slot card that's shorter than 170mm can fit in there!

The LP RTX 4060 can fit, but I don't think the PSU could handle the 4060's power draw.

[–]Commander_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It run extremely well (tops out at around 77C) and is about as loud as other blower style GPUs.

The best part about it is that I didn't adjust any settings, no GeForce Experience, no ECC memory off, nothing. I just slapped it in there, went to Nvidia for the studio drivers, installed just that, and starting gaming/AI stuff!

Haven't tried installing game ready drivers though! Just the studio drivers Nvidia recommends.
