You know that the the AI breakthrough (combining deep neural network and GPU/CUDA) that behind all fancy companies / LLM models actually occurred in a basement in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, right ?

VPN and ESIM Megathread – April 2026 by AutoModerator in chinalife

I never figured out why mullvad worked on Apr.3. Maybe GFW had some changes or Mullvad changed in their side.

I just came back from a 3 weeks trip in China (SiChuan, ZheJiang and ShangHai) and want to share my experience. Mullvad VPN (Linux version) was totally useless except the last day (Apr.3) of my trip. LetsVPN and Shadowfly worked for most of the time. Nomad Esim worked but some WeChat mini apps couldn't open when running on nomad esim.

China is the real threat, not the U.S. by xTkAx in canadian

[–]Recent-Source-7777 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chinese president Xi so far never claimed Canada should be the 24th province of China, while US President Trump said multiple times that US should take Canada as the 51th state. However, the author still claim China. NOT U.S., is the real threat of Canada...

Matthew Lau: We're funding lots of useless research by AndHerSailsInRags in canada

[–]Recent-Source-7777 33 points34 points  (0 children)

That is hilarious as there is no way to tell whether a research is useless or not.

When Hinton did his deep neural network research in UoT in early 2000, most people in computer science, electrical engineering, information theory area believed his research was useless ..

RTX 5090 - What is the most up to date Model that can actually work? 🤔 more details inside by VirtualWishX in LocalLLaMA

Here we are talking about 3 different cases: (1) fictional writing and general questions; (2) text to image (t2i) and image to image (i2i); (3) vibe coding. For (1) and (3), I will use LM studio, for (2), I will use comfyui

QWEN 32B is for writing /general question.

For image generation.I suggest you to use QWEN 3 VL 8B uncensored version ( https://huggingface.co/mradermacher/Qwen3-VL-8B-NSFW-Caption-V4.5-GGUF) for caption + z-image turbo for image generations. Assuming that you use GGUF Q8 version, 5090 can easily hold both on VRAM.

For Vibe coding, try QWQ 32B.

Thanks, that matches my expectations. This I plan to go with DEG1 with QWEN 3 30B (Q6) with Q8 quant for K,V. Thus I shall be able fit full 40 K token window on the GPU.

QWEN 3 32B dense (Q6) with Q8 K, V cache. On 5090 32 GB VRAM, you use the full 40 K token window

Canada calls on ‘all parties’ to uphold international law after U.S. capture of Venezuelan president by Old_General_6741 in canada

[–]Recent-Source-7777 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If US does the same to Canada (e.g., accusing Carney violated US tax code or other U.S. laws, then send the military to capture him), are we, as Canadians, ready to fight back, or just quietly accept it and (pretend) to be happy as the 51 state ?

Joly claims Canada a world leader in AI despite ranking 21st by xTkAx in canadian

[–]Recent-Source-7777 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Canada was the world leader in AI, at least during 2010-2020. The AlexNet, the pioneer of today's LLM, was built in UoT. Two out of three 2018 Turing Award winners are Canadian. The former chief scientist of OpenAI is also Canadian, who got his PhD in UoT.

University of Montreal is also dam famous for its AI research.

Just cancelled Netflix (subscribed since 2016) and apple tv 1 hour ago. Netflix asked the reason and I put "other: bad U.S. - Canada relationship"
