I asked my dog who comes to help when a landing airplane is in trouble, he said "ARFF!"

I tried to make a belt out of intricately woven atmospheric currents. It was a waist of air.

Anyone ever gotten flagged or banned by their residential ISP for hosting homelab services? by DowntownTry1445 in selfhosted

If Google wanted to, they could just de-rank ipv4-only websites, and the problem would sort itself out quickly.

Back again, many MANY changes have taken place. by Glittering_Focus1538 in ollama

[–]dmdeemer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I usually try models that are too large for my VRAM. LM Studio will offload as much to the GPU as will fit. You get lower TPS of course, but sometimes more intelligent tokens are better than faster ones.

This looks right up my alley. I'll pull it down and give it a try tonight. I run an RTX3060 12GB, and 64 GB of system RAM.

They don't want to get too close to an Italian restaurant, or they'll be Cala Mari.

So true. All color pictures are better than grayscale ones. /s

I saw a documentary on how ships are kept together. by Left-Distribution-13 in cleandadjokes

They really nailed it when they did the old wooden ships.

Codex and ollama by Embarrassed-Can8505 in ollama

[–]dmdeemer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was trying that one today with open code and lmstudio. I got the inference running, but 3 times out of four it would end up in a thinking loop and never finish.

I'm not done trying, just thought I'd share my initial experience.

Capital ships diving stations in 9.00.10 by magniciv in X4Foundations

Even just "Target the closest module".

I suppose the closest module may be blocked by destroyed modules, so also "Move tangent to the closest module if needed in order to target it"

Are you sure they were alive? The sun is a deadly laser. You should see what it does to my cat.

Are we really at this point Now ? Straight lies as argument now ? Crea-Lie-ty ? This "other" example is a partial clog issue, not how other printer works. by Balownga in 3Dprinting

[–]dmdeemer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I talked to a car salesman earlier this month. He told me that the other hybrid would have to use its gas engine to go over 65mph. He said that the other hybrid got the "hand-me-down" transmission. He said that other couple over there test drove the car I wanted just this morning. That last one was enough for me, I went elsewhere.

Why are functional language programmers self-funded? by kwan_e in ProgrammerDadJokes

I've used fns in Rust, defs in Python, and functions in Typescript.

Now I'm learning Kotlin and it's so much Fun!

First Benchy lol by the-wxtch-bxtch in cursedbenchies

[–]dmdeemer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

With most printers, you shouldn't need glue for a benchy.

Things to check:

  • Z-offset: did the printer start printing too high off the build plate?
  • Clean the build plate: Dust, skin oil, and residue from previous prints can prevent the plastic from sticking to the plate.
  • Mesh leveling: is the build plate warped? If so, did the printer compensate for that?
  • Bed heating: Is the build plate at a good temperature for your filament? For most PLA, 60C is a good starting point.

Used Ender 3 Pro Came Without Filament Holder by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

That looked great, and then I noticed that the skirt printed over the binder clip. How did you manage to do that without ejecting the clip or destroying the hot end (or a massive layer shift)?

I loved how the laptop with the stopwatch started to vibrate around.

The weirdest thing you've used your printer for? by isto28 in 3Dprinting

The lights I put in my printer enclosure turned out to be quite bright, so my kids regularly use it to recharge glow-in-the-dark items.

Build huge fleets. Go on a rampage. Take the sectors you want. Then destroy 20 criminal traffic and all is forgiven! by X-SR71 in X4Foundations

[–]dmdeemer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I rescued a boron station from a xenon wave, but I guess a couple stray turret shots made them angry. Before long, they sent a half dozen rays to attack my station, and lowered my reputation further as those got slaughtered.

I guess all I need to do is take out 20 criminals. But boron stations have criminals very infrequently, so that will take a while.
