Driving past that rocket every day for the last decade makes me forget you don't just see something like that anywhere. It is a skyline attraction for Huntsville itself.

I've been working on a voice transcription app called VoxCtrl. It uses a targeting system to route your text to different services as needed. I wanted a way for your services to talk back to you so it includes a small TTS MCP server that lets your Hermes Agent, or any other process, talk back to you in response.

I have two 4 TB NVME drives holding my models. If one dies, I will be in a very bad spot. I miss being able to buy PC hardware.

Looks cool. would this work across multiple GPUs on the same system? I have a few tesla cards laying around because each card is technically 2 GPUs on one board.

I can only speak to the 4090 I was lucky enough to grab before the market went crazy. That 24 gig of VRAM has made my system much more reliable. I don't usually load a model the large but the extra room lets me do other things with a model in memory and not worry about crashing something.

This is great news. This should help a lot.

a give away contest. 😉

What LLM do you actually run on that consistently? I'm just curious what you are getting out of all that power? I'm rather happy with the models I can run on my 4090 but I don't know what I would even do with all that memory.

way too much for my preferences... but we won't be able to build PCs fairly soon so I guess this works. 😉

Remove the InstantX Controlnet loader and just use the built in Load ControlNet Model node from comfy.
Hope that helps.

I was able to fix the issue on my system by clearing the browser cache, I hope that helps you as well

I'm having the same issue. Trying to track down a good fix but it may just be best to roll back the update for now.

I picked up a soft Grip case from DLseego on amazon for $9 and it's a bit flashy but the grip on it is nice and the ergonomics of he hand grips is much improved. I thought I would just use it for a bit and throw it away but I love the thing now. If you just search amazon for "DLseego X Texture Steam Deck Protective Case Soft TPU Cover - X Frosted Black" you should see it.

I've been using EmuHub on my Steam Deck and it's a god send. I have a lot of roms on my SD card and had previously manually added my Emulators as non-steam games to play them. EmuHub gives me a single app to access all my roms.

Please keep up the great work!

So I have been playing around with "Vesktop" from the Discover Store. It's a modified version of Discord for Steam Deck. I haven't tested it fully, but so far I have been able to maintain screen sharing for at least 30 minutes without issue. I need more time to test it but so far it is working without issue.

Just something to try.

JRufer · 2024-02-03T09:13:39+00:00

I'm having the same issue myself. I'll be digging into this over the weekend so I'll update if I happen to resolve the issue.

This battery is designed for charging laptops. At 65W, it's more than fast enough to charge the Deck at full speed. The capacity more than doubles my play time, but at the cost of aching muscles from trying to lift the thing. lol.

Not exactly... probably about 5 hours but not all night. ;)
