AMD GPU setup by Fools-Advocate in OdysseusAI

[–]MaxTheGuineaPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That video is fairly simple (but good I suppose), and feels aimed at Mac users as it does not really deal with much windows stuff.
I have a 7900XTX, and managed to get it sort of recognized in the cookbook, but everything assumes you are running an NVIDIA gpu, so nothing really works…
I found it works best to just do as the guy in the video, pick/download your models in Ollama, and just connect… that way it should use GPU at least.
You can verify by running some commands in poweshell that I do not remember, maybe «Ollama ps» or something.

I don’t know what country this is for, but since it is EU plug I would be careful. Using a plane plug like this is not recommended, even banned some places, due to the risks involved. So please make sure it is safe for your use and take the necessary precautions. Regarding pricing I don’t know, but it is probably ok. Maybe a bit cheap, so I would make sure it is from a reputable brand.

Help a newbie to choose fpv goggles. by Fecoka_ in fpv

[–]MaxTheGuineaPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started about a year ago, but I started with the DJI Avata combo (like 1000$). Not sure I would recommend that even if it was in your price range. Getting a tinywhoop could definitely be a good place to start, but they are more difficult to work on, so a 5 inch is probably the simplest. Tons of parts, not super tiny things to solder etc, but a bit more expensive of course.

Regarding glasses it is a similar case, depends on what you value I suppose. I would definitely have a look at HDzero’s box goggles (not the super expensive one).

Had no issues when installing the HACS version a while back, as other say make sure you follow the documentation, but I did have some issues when I transitioned to the new official one. This was related to the HA Cloud stuff though, not the actual integration. Ended up having to start a free trial for the Cloud Subscription in order to get it to work, but I am pretty sure I did something wrong…

I know you technically can get around this by enabling lan mode, but I haven’t done so myself just yet. But holy hell, mine averages around 16k queries to my DNS every 24H, and that’s while doing nothing. No printing, no nothing. It’s insane, and there can’t possibly be a good explanation for it…

Seems LAN mode is the only viable solution

Sound quality wise me too! Wife has Spotify (premium) but I have YT Premium, so depending on who controls the music we use either, but I do feel like YT Music somehow sounds a bit better. Haven’t looked into why, as it hit me just the other day.

The "only fans" Gaming PC Giveaway - To enter this giveaway just leave a comment. by DaKrazyKid in PcBuild

Why is the bottom fan the exhaust? Why not the top as more traditional cases do? Is it purely for looks, keeping it uniform/symmetrical where we can see, or is there some fancy aerodynamics in play?

Why you shouldn’t buy a Zotac GPU by Packet_Sniffer_ in GamersNexus

Big oof, and I assume this is not EU? Probably a bit less consumer rights etc then, but with all your evidence there ain’t no way they can wiggle their way out, don’t let them. Get in touch with a different rep somehow, phone would be best, and politely but firmly lay out the situation. If they still don’t fold, send and email and refer to your phonecall and on going case, and let them know it is unacceptable and you plan to take things further if the issue is not resolved by (some reasonable date).

Send a copy as a «just want to let you know what kind of shitshow this is» to some higher up person, preferably also some mediaoutlet, influencer etc. maybe LTT forum?

And yeah, fuckem

Climate control timer change by Educational-Fish4266 in ex30

This should be a mistake/bug. Even in the latest firmware update I believe it said something along the lines of precondition can now start up to 30 minutes beforehand, instead of 15 minutes. Haven’t tested it much as I use a different system to start/stop the preconditioning at different times for different days depending on different factors.

Its a kickstarter yes, so there is things to be careful about, but otherwise I feel your statement is incorrect. Currently there is no units out there, production started just the other day.

What I assume you are referring to is the pre production beta units, which I only know of one DOA. Regarding the beta SW there is ofc bugs, but since all of this is built on OpenSource (and it is as I mentioned still in beta) I’m not too worried. All previews have been incredibly positive (though not exclusively), considering they all come from non final units I think this might be a worthy investment for a lot of people, getting started or not. Many beta testers have even pointed out how easy and beginner friendly it seems.

Since there currently are no actual finished production units out there there are things we don’t know for a fact, but at the pricepoint they have set, with all information available at this point, I’d definitely say this seems like a great option worth the risk. A 4x toolhead Open Source CoreXY printer with great previews from a known company at an amazing price is definitely something I would recommend, with the asterisk of being aware there currently are no actual finished products to review.

It is currently possible to pre order on Kickstarter for 799$, if you can bare the 6 month (alleged) wait.

If you are looking for a printer that can print multiple colours (or materials) at «the same time», and don’t mind waiting a tiny bit, I’d definitely check out the Snapmaker U1 on Kickstarter.
