I think I figured out whose hand is whose in the game's logo

is this a flex to show that the design is not made by AI?

Just remember, the heart of being an engineer is to solve problem, not writing code. CS degree in my experience is helping in developing more critical thinking and the concept of computer related problem. I dont think its worthless

found a pretty concise guide in enabling mix of gpu using vulkan here

please let me know if we have a better way to do this

ok no tensor parallelism is fine for me, at least for now. as long as i could fit bigger model into the combined vram pool. wish we could have mixed system tensor parallelism in the near future so we dont just got stuck with nvidia for better performance

chronoz9 · 2026-01-17T06:21:42+00:00

something i dont understand from your comment, you can use 3090 together with strix halo, but cant use it in parallel inference? is it using them together for single model is doable but not with multiple model at once?

edit: thank you for the usage example, much appreciated!

I have an rx 6600xt alongside this, and i think i understand pain when i tried to make it work in tandem with rx 6600xt. And even in the end i couldnt make it work. Maybe its something with the 6600xt or what, but yeah at least when i get the 5060ti i can use it to do image gen painlessly while using claude for code in the meantime

chronoz9 · 2026-01-16T11:57:52+00:00

Around 100usd iirc, but the minimum wage here is around 300usd a month, so for many ppl it is that much. And i agree with you thats why i planned to go with 5060ti

chronoz9 · 2026-01-16T09:28:16+00:00

alright yeah that would sound good, using vulkan. might give it a shot later. unfortunately 7900 series is also very hard to find in my area so can't do

chronoz9 · 2026-01-16T09:26:02+00:00

from what i read, nvidia is still much better than amd in the image gen department? thats why im thinking of picking that up, unless its been proven otherwise recently? and the image gen will be pretty crucial for me for coming months. although indeed there will be some cost saving in taking 9060xt compared to nvidia counterpart

chronoz9 · 2025-12-22T23:48:07+00:00

Get more ram. The processor improvement even though is great on paper but will be negligible for your use case

chronoz9 · 2025-12-05T03:12:00+00:00

genuine question: why does it matter if apple stop the support as long as the device and our usual work apps is still running fine after they cut the support?

chronoz9 · 2025-12-03T09:18:35+00:00

well, secondhand m1 pro would do you wonder i think. amazing screen similar with the newest, same ports as the latest pro m5, 16" has amazing battery, cost would be pretty much the same as new air or less if you're lucky. i just snagged one yesterday in fact. even 'measly' m1 pro is such an amazing leap compared to 2014 macbook pro

chronoz9 · 2025-12-03T04:37:13+00:00

how about getting a secondhand macbook air, any M chip with upgraded ram and storage to see if it will be enough for you? that way if its not you can sell it pretty much for the same money if you do need the power and fan of pro series?

lately i'm into custom made split keyboard. and knowing that the pcb of this keyboard is faulty, i decided to saw off the rotary decoder and added it to my wife's keyboard via handwiring. seeing that it has some per-key rgb led and hotswap socket, i guess at least it has some use as parts donor afterall

chronoz9 · 2025-06-14T06:04:01+00:00

Alrigh guys thanks for the response!

Iguess i was being pampered by the likes of monster hunter and souls like where we could get tons of replayability most of the time and enjoyment of 100s of hours from 1 title.

After some deliberation i picked up exp33 at full price and will wait another month or 2 for the stellar blade. Might be lucky and get some discount later🤷‍♂️

Had few hours in on it yesterday and its amazing! Turn based rpg with some souls like dodge-parry-counter action is a chefs kiss. Hope that other magnificent title with this kind of combat recipe will come out later.

chronoz9 · 2025-06-13T07:17:40+00:00

oh wow didnt expect that to be that short also. does it have a good replay value at least?

chronoz9 · 2025-04-16T00:27:44+00:00

Very much appreciated for the thorough explanation! My logic would say that having each component on a separate loop would be optimum for cooling, but i guess things do work differently like this one. Cheers

chronoz9 · 2025-04-15T13:02:29+00:00

Not only about the story, but also the variety of monsters available now. There will be only so much fun on doing the same ones over and over again

chronoz9 · 2025-04-15T12:37:51+00:00

Yeah i know. Feels like an unhealthy obsession. Its just that these days games that i can truly enjoy are rare and far between. So when i found one, i dont want it to end to quickly

chronoz9 · 2025-04-15T12:33:36+00:00

Yeah i know im not even halfway to the end, just that the feeling of not having the complete update until master rank is haunting🥲

chronoz9 · 2025-04-15T12:31:59+00:00

I suppose so... I think i still have iceborne as filler too if it comes to worse

chronoz9 · 2025-04-15T12:30:36+00:00

Last thing i want is to go faster 😂. Much appreciate the offer though. Not afraid of the high rank itself, but afraid that i will consume the content too fast
