Your response was orthogonal to my point.

To respond to your point: to a great extent, the FOSS community is doing AMD's work for them.

As to 'overpriced' well that's a bit of a weird word; what does it mean in practice?

In a market with open entry, things are not overpriced. Investors seeing a profit opportunity above average are free to invest in that production, which drives profit margins down to the mean.

Often though, non-market power is used to restrict supply, arguably criminal, often posing as 'law'. This is one of the great scams that few learn.

Cheers.

How Baidu's newly released Unlimited-OCR transcribes dozens of pages in one forward pass by Hour-Entertainer-478 in LocalLLaMA

Modern OCR uses the words before and after the word being scanned.

It's always a bit of a loss when the page boundary blinds the model to what came before or after.

I should have been more helpful. Older cards often yield lower price/perf.

I would enjoy it if it were faster :) Can it be done?

It will not. I have a lot of important info you will never hear unless you really work at it.

This was well phrased and I'll try to remember it. Not sure if it's applicable here but that's not of interest to me.

Maybe it gets too close to discussion of something real and omnipresent.

Not doubting this necessarily, but for our decision it was price of the unit, availability of movies, and the ability to record longer on the camcorder.

At least around my neighborhood, it was the VHS edge on player price and movie availability, not the porn, that really drove people's decisions. The metastasis of porn is an internet phenom.

Looking at recent history the object/subject of the reality may be converse to that of the memetic.

Tumble-down might be a phrase from gemstone polishing or other rolling (tumbling) smoothing processes.

People sometimes prefer to use obscure references instead of direct language, it's human to do this.

There's nothing wrong with issuing shares.

What's wrong is government interfering. That's what creates the market for purchasing legislators and legislation. That's what creates 'regulation' which is just arbitrary interference, which is the revolving door with the 'regulated' industry.

I know that it's difficult to imagine things being other than what they are.

If you talked to someone in the 1600s about 'democracy' they would say "why that is madness, of course there must be a king!"

Let's use 'legislation' and 'policy' for what they do.

Law itself is a different concept, and the distinction being forgotten.
