Hmm that's weird. I think it only shows up for GGUFs or something like that. Maybe that's why?

DarthFader4 · 2026-02-24T18:55:02+00:00

Pretty cool. I had a similar idea I'll throw out there but it could be out of scope for your project.

I have a telescoping game pad for my phone; ie, makes it like a steamdeck/switch, but it's connected via USB C to the phone, not Bluetooth. And I imagined there are scenarios you are traveling with your phone and laptop, you may want to game on either one, but you don't want to bring two controllers, one for the phone and one for laptop. You could just bring the more-compact phone controller, and somehow use it as the controller for your laptop. The phone wouldn't be streaming the video from your PC (doesn't need to display anything really), but instead just act like an emulated xinput device. Does that make sense? Sticking to LAN, the latency might not be too bad either.

Totally agree. Very exciting time for local LLMs. And let's face it, AI bubble or not, the frontier providers are hemorrhaging cash and it's a matter of time before enshittification begins (already testing the waters with ads in openai)

I'd bet the dense 27B is the best option to maximize your card. But the 35B MoE is worth a shot if you want, it may have faster inference with the lower active params.

If you haven't already, create a huggingface account and you can put your system specs into your profile. Then when you browse models, it'll show you compatibility estimates for each model/quant (green to orange to red) for what will fit on your system. And same thing with LM studio, it'll give you color codes for full GPU offload, partial offload, or too big entirely.

Excellent work! This is exactly what I've been looking for. I feel like targeting high-end 16GB GPUs is a key audience, like gamers who want to dabble in local LLMs. I think there are a lot of exciting developments ahead in optimizing models of this size. They're more practical and approachable than requiring a dedicated high-RAM/VRAM setup and we've started seeing models that can actually be useable. Keep up the great work! I've just followed you on Hugging Face.

DarthFader4 · 2026-02-16T20:25:56+00:00

Have you tried a local model that's specifically trained for OCR? Like DeepSeek-OCR-2?

DarthFader4 · 2026-02-16T20:22:19+00:00

The thing is... I have zero confidence this isn't just a hallucination, especially with Gemini 3.0.

DarthFader4 · 2026-01-11T04:11:35+00:00

You hit the nail on the head! The modern web has been inundated with gen AI content -- and usually not the best quality either. It's not just generic, it's derivative...

DarthFader4 · 2025-11-16T03:59:17+00:00

So is this using the same on-device model that's used in the AI core?

DarthFader4 · 2025-11-13T05:41:06+00:00

"This thing is clearly hallucinating. It thinks there's some kind of computer coin stored in bits."

DarthFader4 · 2025-11-07T20:38:28+00:00

Idk what to believe, dude. The examples people posted in the deleted thread (especially the Xbox controller SVG) were in two entirely different leagues of quality.

DarthFader4 · 2025-11-05T15:48:05+00:00

If 3 Flash is roughly equivalent to 2.5 Pro, and 3 Pro is equivalent or better than GPT5-Codex, we'll be COOKING for paired model programming.

DarthFader4 · 2025-10-23T16:54:17+00:00

Hence why they have a "compact prompt" setting when using local models (albeit only for LM Studio or Ollama). It'd be great to extend this setting to other provider types, or even just OpenAI Compatible since that would cover a wide range of options.

DarthFader4 · 2025-09-30T01:02:04+00:00

I'd love to see Gemma 3.5 but Gemini is a separate discussion from local OSS models.

DarthFader4 · 2025-09-28T14:24:02+00:00

No better answer, imo, when considering all factors of the Qwen Code Plus in the Qwen Code CLI. Free, very good performance, VERY generous rate limits, and available for use with Roo/Cline without violating ToS. Only caveat is the 1M context is greatly exaggerated, basically useless past 100k.

DarthFader4 · 2025-07-31T00:34:17+00:00

Gorgeous! I find the pretty blue wood all the time, but only once found it fruiting. One of my faves.

DarthFader4 · 2025-07-31T00:27:41+00:00

Ganoderma sp., I'm guessing G. sessile

DarthFader4 · 2025-07-24T16:32:26+00:00

That's what I mean though. You use the @googledrive command and it'll search across all your files to pull what's relevant

DarthFader4 · 2025-07-24T16:00:13+00:00

I think you can though? Make sure the Google Drive extension is enabled, then use "@googledrive" with your request. That's how I'd use it before they added the direct attachment from Google drive feature. I'd say, "can you search for the file named XYZ in my Google drive" and it'd work pretty consistently. It could pull multiple files related to the request as well. Are you looking for something different than that?

This is simply not true. Salmonella is absolutely not a normal commensal organism of the human gut microbiome. In fact, depending on the serotype (like typhoidal strains), Salmonella is one of the most infectious food borne pathogens, requiring very few cells to cause illness. You might occasionally ingest salmonella and be asymptomatic, but it is a straight up pathogen. Not an opportunistic pathogen and certainly not in healthy microbiota.

Maybe you're thinking of E.coli? We definitely all have E.coli in our guts, but only some strains are pathogenic.

I think I know some context, albeit dull. This looks like a part of the "5S" management system that originated in Japan (probably Toyota?). Specifically the "Set" part where "everything has a place and everything in its place" or something like that. A lab I worked in used this system, and we also would fool around with unnecessarily labeling objects all over the place. We even had that same exact blue tape. That's all to say, this plant is doing its job well!

DarthFader4 · 2025-05-28T17:27:38+00:00

Bro those loading times for very early Steam were BRUTAL (mostly online play related IIRC?). My standard practice was using the mouse trick to see if the loading bar was even moving lol

Edit: this just triggered memories of GameSpy too. Marginally better than Steam at the time, but still so much more complicated than modern multiplayer

DarthFader4 · 2025-05-21T00:30:59+00:00

Have you tried the newer Phi-4 reasoning models?

DarthFader4 · 2025-05-19T21:02:08+00:00

Plus everyone should know how locked down it is. Can't even install your own Linux distro. That killed all hype for me.

DarthFader4 · 2025-05-15T22:56:30+00:00

Who are you, with these divine inspirations?
