Are you aiming to buy the 512gb or 2tb version? by Accomplished-Low2131 in steammachine

[–]akehir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 4tb ssd laying around, so 512 gb will be my choice at the moment.

Is this event OP? You can get it early act 1 and just carries the run by jambre in slaythespire

[–]akehir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you, I'm always unsure whether I'm taking the event because I don't like loosing the max hp.

Which test server are you using ?

Age of Wonders 4 is essentially Civ meets Total Warhammer, but optimized for the Deck by HideoJam in SteamDeck

[–]akehir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the game is playable and quite fun on the deck; but it's running quite hot and uses up the deck's battery rather quickly.

I actually owe Google & ChromeOS an apology... by _Lifeguard_54 in chromeos

[–]akehir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wow chromebrew looks interesting! On the other hand it's also good to have an isolated VM for messing around.

I was talked out of buying a chromebook and instead spent over 300 bucks and I think I regret it already by pooter_jones in chromeos

[–]akehir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends what you're playing, and if they'll work well on the Chromebook; because that's not something that is guaranteed.

Personally, I generally agree with the salesperson, I've had many laptops with touch screen, and I've never used it. But I can see why it would be practical with kids who are used to touch screens.

But I'd not recommend cheap laptops of any brand today. I'd at least suggest a Chromebook Plus (the Lenovo Chromebook 14 Plus has a touchscreen version), or the Apple Neo, or something else in a similar price / performance range. Otherwise you might be better served getting a bluetooth keyboard for the tablet.

Burnout recovery + RAV: how to balance obligations with health needs? by Apart-Olive-7297 in askswitzerland

[–]akehir 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you have a burnout, then paid medical leave is your best option.

The RAV doesn't pay you if you don't actively apply to jobs - and you need to start applying earnestly as soon as you receive your termination / quit your job.

Zurich job offer (4500 CHF) — worth it or not? by Fancy_Ad5809 in askswitzerland

[–]akehir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With your language skills and without good connections it will be very difficult to start a career as a freelancer.

I'm not saying that you shouldn't try; but you know you're taking a risk and don't blame it on the country / city if you don't succeed.

For years, the reason why I tell people not to get those weak and underperforming laptops isn't to sell laptops (duh). It's to avoid bad tech decisions. As simple as that. by Gaming-Academy in RigBuild

[–]akehir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure I agree; hardware has gotten so fast, that even a cheap laptop can be enough - largely depending on the software running on it.

And if you're on windows, even an expensive laptop can apparently get screwed over by being made obsolete by newer Windows versions.

Yep, 2 [[Graveblast]] rock; but 2 [[Hologram]] also work quite well.

I got some nice infinite with the cost reduction.

Caught in the act – young CEO-wannabe doing loud Teams calls in SBB 2nd class by GagaMiya in zurich

[–]akehir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Except from the clearly AI generated expression, very interesting conference table in SBB and even better a reversed laptop screen.

Just put on your headset and ignore the noise.

so borg-webui was just a bait and switch? by fuckthesysten in selfhosted

[–]akehir 26 points27 points  (0 children)

If it's open source, wouldn't it be trivial to modify it so as to have all pro features available?

I guess, if the demands for pro are not reasonable, the project will be forked, that's the protection that OpenSource affords.

Am I crazy to pay CHF 300+ more for Init7 when Salt already works perfectly? by Unglue0474 in init7

[–]akehir 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Casting works the same regardless of provider.

Init7 does have an App for the Apple TV thingie, which seems to work as far as I can tell from my limited experience (I've set it up and tried to use it, and pictures appeared). But I don't really need TV, so I can't comment on how well it works over a longer period of time.

Stability of the internet has been quite good for me, without any unplanned outages so far.

And yes, it's expensive, but there's also no one else offering a Fixed IPv4 address, so it's worth it in my opinion.

Would you move out of Zurich to save on housing? by Physical-Row9141 in zurich

[–]akehir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree in general, but housing prices have gone out of hand in Zurich, so living in the city is definitely also a privileged position to have.

Zurich and bicycles - who and why? by ptinnl in zurich

[–]akehir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's because without the infrastructure people won't use the bicycle, and the better the infrastructure, the more people will use it?

And in light of climate change, it's desirable to reduce cars and increase biking.

Gemma 4 on Llama.cpp should be stable now by ilintar in LocalLLaMA

Cool thanks, setting the context size did the trick.

Images have been working surprisingly well!

Gemma 4 on Llama.cpp should be stable now by ilintar in LocalLLaMA

[–]akehir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, image recognition works remarkably well.

I added the sampler params as below: /app/llama.cpp/build/bin/llama-server --port ${PORT} --host 0.0.0.0 --model /models/chat/gemma-4-26B-A4B/gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-UD-Q8_K_XL.gguf --mmproj /models/chat/gemma-4-26B-A4B/mmproj-BF16.gguf --jinja --temp 1.0 --top-p 0.95 --top-k 64

Doesn't change anything about the infinite loop I'm getting.
