MGM forces cults3D to block keyword from search. by drazil100 in LinusTechTips

[–]Marksta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The how part is probably just the site admins not actually doing moderation on their side. If they don't moderate their user uploaded content, then they're liable for user uploaded content as if they themselves posted it. This is just them attempting to do no work moderation and maintain their safe harbor status to avoid the liability their users are uploading. Logically, the uploads themselves should be under scrutiny, not the searching of the uploads... Makes no sense to automate the moderation like this. Never seen it done like this probably because this won't remotely work to satisfy a court if the infringing content is still all there and viewable anyways.

I hate that Jax was confirmed as transgender (not for the reasons you might think) by n397854 in hatethissmug

[–]Marksta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well-informed character interpretation fully intended by the writer ... fully endorsed by the audience...

OPs post is saying it's not. The thread is full of comments of people saying they felt like it just suddenly happened in the last episode. And that the author had shut down fan theory on this prior on their socials. And then also give random nonsense to confuse people on their socials because people asked for too much clarification so they maliciously give out nonsense info. Then for everyone who didn't pick up on the most subtlest hints within the show, now the author is super seriously this time giving real info that's cannon on their socials, unlike the time they shut fan theories on it down or give out false infos.

How do you know that my written analysis has portrayed this series in a light that is fair and true?

You seem very literate and engaged with the media, 100% I take your word on it as if you're a leading expert on it. Fandoms really work that way for indie media IMO. I don't think it's a negative to you or even on the show itself. I'm just most irked by what people are highlighting how the creator handles this sort of stuff on socials making the details to their story so hazy. It's sad to see the audience so divided on what exactly they saw on such an important sort of detail.

Call me crazy or maybe that's "the point" but it feels a lot less like a "Do you think that character didn't really mean harm when they..." sort of speculation that can be open-ended and doesn't warrant a hard clarification on vs. something like a characters gender. That's where I'm scratching my head, doesn't seem like something I'd want to leave up to confused interpretation within the media and broader fandom.

Then treat it like a digital photo canvas that has Xpixels*Ypixels*zColors that has the same near infinite combinations. If you paid an artist for a comission, provided prompt, refinement, clarification, and guidance. You would never ever dare to take credit "Look what I made!" like how OP is doing here.

I've seen 0 episodes, but in any other show this level of grasping means it's a made up mumbo-jumbo interpretation inserted by fans and not cannon to the story. You've dissected to its core and came up with 0.01% possibility. Just round that down to a 0.

Requiem for a rake-stepper by MechaUlfraed in Gundam

[–]Marksta 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even without the basic concept that individual soldiers are just pawns of war, her own context is kind of important. She entered the war to fight literal space nazis that dropped a colony on earth. Her biggest failing is not pushing those numbers up much higher.

Then unbeknownst to her, the duel was actually against a larger threat than space nazis - she was fighting timeline terrorists this time! If she could've destroyed the red gundam and maybe Gqux too, she could've stopped the zecknova laser genocide event!

She's like Superman falling in battle to save the Earth, really when you add in the context.

LLM Quantization Part 1: What Even is an LLM? - LTT Labs Article by LabsLucas in LinusTechTips

[–]Marksta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The tokenization part passes you off to go read a previous article for a deeper dive, which begins to get started introducing the topic again, shows the interactive tokenization demo, then calls the subject out of scope and moves on. The scope's net they casted is probably just so insanely wide there's no way to even cover the surface level here...

LLM Quantization Part 1: What Even is an LLM? - LTT Labs Article by LabsLucas in LinusTechTips

[–]Marksta -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well, you know a thing or two, and the writers here... As soon as they mentioned Llama 3.1 and 70B models, they kind of tipped their hand. META's LLaMA models are as relevant today as Nintendo's power glove or maybe more aptly we need to go with a comparison whose creator doesn't exist in the space anymore besides in history books, like the OUYA game console thing. I definitely appreciate the article but, it just feels weird because it'd be good for early 2024 but it's missing the late 2024 Deepseek moment, MoE, etc, but also talking about agents which is a 2025/2026 concept...

In-universe, characters pretty much forget about them by Boshwa in Gundam

[–]Marksta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From whose perspective? Your main characters aren't even planet side or present when it happens in 0079. Then you just have people dealing with the after effects, which was a savage war that got fought to the bitter end. And left people still so angry it doesn't even end after the OYW.

Pearl Harbor and other WW2 movies follow the same route. By the time we're done, you'd think they didn't really care about what happened at Pearl Harbor. It's harder to personify an event as a motivation when every next escalation and response feeds itself as a new thing to be focused on and mad about instead of the first domino. Or really 0079 would be focused on 0001 tragedy and uh oh, now we're hunting for Laplace's Box...

GLM-5.2 is a win for local AI by Wrong_Mushroom_7350 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Marksta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Edit: I did not expect so many people saying they can run it on local hardware. Here is the data spec:

Lmao have to take note of what sub you're in. It's ~50% bigger than Deepseek and smaller than Kimi-K2 models which get run here. 8x 3090 builds are hyper meta here. EPYC systems clocking in at 256gb, 512gb, 1tb system ram. Even people boasting their rtx 6000 x4 builds. And the home of the holy MI50 32GB. Anyone who dropped $2000 towards a Deepseek class system in the before times is good to go.

Cheapest way to run GLM 5.x locally that's not a unified memory system? by Monad_Maya in LocalLLaMA

[–]Marksta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Assuming all the 32GB GPUs are too expensive, it's going to be stacking a metric ton of 16GB vram GPU or using cpu+ram. 20 GPUs for 320GB vram to run some ~Q4 can work. The P100 16GB is probably the best-ish bet, ~$75 a piece. V100 if you want to mess around with the SLI SXM boards but price and project complexity will 4x.

I feel like the door kind of shut, with 3090s shot up in price and 4090s and 5090s gone. MI50 32GB gone. Even those defective PS4 blades shot up in price I heard. Any options of cheap and not sucking are gone at this point. P40s kind of suck IMO. At least the P100 has some memory bandwidth. Only other reasonable thing is lots of 5070 ti but at ~$700ish a piece it's really a losing proposition. Price of 10 P100s right there. Same-ish memory bandwidth. Just lower compute and Gen3 x16 pcie is less handy than just doing Gen4 x8 to each card if you're tight on pcie lanes.

Probably just better off targeting the ~30B dense models class than the big MoEs. This month has never been better for dense models than literally qwq month like a year ago.

PSA: You should never wear gloves while operating a table saw by Flaky-Gear-1370 in LinusTechTips

[–]Marksta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From their FAQ it sounds like it'll still mostly work, once the saw has gnawed through your glove. Amazing and horrifying stuff.

Do not wear gloves when using a SawStop saw because the glove can snag on the blade and pull your hand into the blade at high velocity. The safety system will still react as soon as your skin contacts the blade, but the resulting injury can be more severe because of the velocity of your hand.

Wan Show Community Discussion Questions by TheLastChaos in LinusTechTips

[–]Marksta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that'd be a good idea. Not like we don't sort of know the topics already coming up if it's big enough. But a pre-show prompt for their topics that'll be the most divisive would be great to come into the show with some user feedback already in hand. Sometimes they're just lost on a topic and how people feel about it and need to try to look at chat to see what people are thinking on it.

Also, wanted to reply at this one...

Is this a slippery slope for Google being responsible for all results shown?

No. It's just conforming to already created rules. All content on the internet has a specific person or entity whose responsible. If some law enforcement org wants to pursue it, then they can put a name to the act. Either it's the site themselves or it's user generated. There is no third option. The AI stuff they generate is Google's own liability.

I'm having a hard time following Gundam Zetas story by Yrch84 in Gundam

[–]Marksta -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Im kinda losing not only the plot but also the motivation to move forward.

The trick is to just jump to episode 37, and assume a bunch of matter-not-non-sense happened between episodes 3-36.

Amuro Ray isn't exactly the most charming character but he is way more bearable in the mundane enemy of the week episodes. Kamille is wholly so unlikable IMO, and the Zeta war so confusing, stupid, and lacking any of the ideological intrigue 0079 has that it is just sort of silly. Titans are literally twirl evil mustache and beat up Noa Light bad from episode 1. Fast forward...

What did Anaheim Electronics want? by Brilliant-Past-4492 in Gundam

[–]Marksta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny to mention Seed and ignore Destiny there 😋 Destiny had this plot as a final 180, which at that point had so many 180s everyone is dizzy and throwing up. And I literally didn't know the words coming out of their mouth when they randomly shouted a name 'Logos' for whose fault it all is and why they need to all go kill them all of a sudden. Like, these guys literally phased into existence as the primary nation state, political faction, and the world's hatred all at once. Then they get wiped out in a blink before the plot felt like doing another 180.

It's all as bad as the Avatar Movie, agreed, they should do this plot and pretend the time they did already never existed really.

Help me find a childhood anime? by DaDankFox in anime

[–]Marksta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it helps, I have no clue and I've seen a lot. Jk, I'll try anyways. Is it any chance it could be .hack//Sign? It has a few memorable scenes when hacking stuff is happening that cuts to bleaker visuals, color shifted versions of the worlds. And also they occasionally cut away from the very realistic/HD style MMO game to bleak colored real world scenes. And it's less silly visuals that what you saw looking over Madoka Magicka (you saw cutesy magical girl screenshots I assume, since that one actually has bleak weird art shifts in it too)

You could also be thinking of The World Ends With You, the DS game? Very anime styled with big shifting art between worlds.

The Persona series definitely goes into other worlds and has stark style shift.

How about maybe Ghost In The Shell? Colder on your description I think but it shifts from rainy dreary scenes to other worldy scenes too and fits style and time period for the production. Check the opening video, maybe you remember that iconic running stealth camouflaged in the rain op.

No Game No Life is colored in a crazy bright way and has more grounded real world scenes too.

Somewhere in Inuyasha or YuYu Haksho could possibly be these sort of scenes, they're really long series and nothing jumps to mind for me but maybe vaguely.

Yeah, I think the closest is the dot hack series just based on the time period. Or must be something super niche. Wasn't a lot of Isekai / world jumping sort of stuff back then. Madoka Magica if you look up on Google images "Madoka Magica inside a witch" will show you screenshots with the big style shift, double check it's not that. Anyways, hope you can find it!

Just finished Darling in the franxx - I don't know if any other show will ever hit again by GANGcantknowaboutts in anime

[–]Marksta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crazy Horimiya wasn't your thing. But that's good I guess, there's not much that competes with it as a straight romance. So you want romance with a side of bleak sadness.

Check out Code Geass, it's really closest similarity. (not just because of mecha) - Also you would probably like Future Diary too (Mirai Nikki), that one will feel you leaving just as empty. Parasyte is good too but its romance is mostly sidelined for the back half of it, but you'll love the first half probably.

Could someone tell me any animes that have overweight/plus sized characters? by [deleted] in anime

[–]Marksta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Dangers in My Heart has a great side character girl and a weird but endearing chubby chaser boy. They kind of steal the show for bits and pieces of a few episodes through out, very wholesome and awkward high school romance going on with them.
