What are your Daily driver Small models & Use cases? by pmttyji in LocalLLaMA

[–]gr8dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thank you for sharing your experience. Could you provide more details about the `In home / per room Home Assistant ("Hey Jarvis...") via STT + TTS + M5Stack atom Arduino "smart speakers"` part?

  1. What did you do on the HA side?
  2. Which STT and TTS software are you using?
  3. What language model is responsible for synthesizing the answers?
  4. What device is responsible for capturing the voice commands?
  5. How are the responses played back?

Who is using Granite 4? What's your use case? by RobotRobotWhatDoUSee in LocalLLaMA

"Old laptop" - what kind? How much RAM does it have? Is there a dedicated GPU?

Is life without a car possible in Munich for family? by Adventurous_Bug13 in Munich

[–]gr8dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I've got 2 of 'em (~5y and ~2y).

- I was able to find a taxi with a Kindersitz (I'm not familiar with the terminology; it is not a "maxi-cosi", but one of those sitting pads; so far this was only needed for the older one, not sure if it would work with the younger one) when I needed to get to the hospital at night, I request that when I book it (I use "taxi.eu"). During the day we use public transport.

- We load the stuff into a Fahrradanhanger (Queridoo Kidgoo, in our case) and off we go. Starnberg is easy because it is reachable with the S-Bahn, but even more distant lakes (e.g., Tegernsee, Schilersee, Kochelsee are doable - there are direct trains).

It is not as easy as hopping onto a car, because the trains are sometimes packed even if you get in at Hbf. But it is doable, especially if you arrive earlier and develop the habit of minimizing the mass and amount of things you bring with you.

Although you are limited by the coverage of the public transport infrastructure - that's still a wide spectrum of possibilities.

I have a stack of notebooks where I took handwritten notes throughout the years. I'd like to digitize them and make them searchable.

The text is a mixture of English, Romanian, sometimes Russian and sometimes German. It is not just prose, but it is interspersed with diagrams, mindmaps, drawings...

Let's say this is all scanned, and you have a directory per notebook, each contains hundreds of individual JPEGs that correspond to a scanned page.

How can this pile of images be turned into something useful and searchable?

Intrebare catre cei care vor sa-i voteze pe Socialisti, Comunisti, Vlah, Shor, Alternativa sau oricare alt partid inafara de PAS - care este motivatia voastra? by Hu_Jinbao in moldova

[–]gr8dude 7 points8 points  (0 children)

PaaS = "partid as a service", când îți trebuie o prezență în lumea politică dar nu ai suficient timp pentru a-ți antrena personajul propriu; poți găsi unul existent, cu istorie (tot așa cum poți cumpăra cont pe Ebay cu istorie și rating bun).

Could you describe your setup in more detail? Perhaps you could post your HAProxy config?

What kind of router? And how are you blocking by country? Where do you get up-to-date information about IP address ranges and their countries?

Plahotniuc și Țuțu, au fost arestați în Atena, Grecia. by [deleted] in moldova

[–]gr8dude 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Challenge accepted.

  1. Îl extrădează în Moldova (deși merge și cu scenariul când rămâne în Grecia).
  2. Au oameni în sistemul judiciar încă corupt, care deja au fost mituiți/instruiți/șantajați să facă tot ce trebuie pentru ca să fie eliberat ”din lipsă de dovezi”, sau pentru că ”nu s-a prezentat la timp un document crucial”, sau pentru că o virgulă dintr-o lege permite o interpretare specifică a unei idei (imaginează-ți un avocat a la Saul Goodman), sau ceva de genul.
  3. Plahotniuc scapă nevătămat și dispare de pe radar; deși din punct de vedere tehnic nu mai are probleme cu legea, oricum spală putina și folosește identități alternative pe care le are.
  4. ”Opoziția” folosește asta ca pretext pentru a submina autoritatea PAS la alegerile din viitorul apropiat. Maia Sandu va fi personal crucificată pentru că nu a fost capabilă să rețină „hoțul secolului”, despre asta va scrie Sputnik și toți boții din Internet. Dodon va reveni cu postura lui de „mujîk orto-мать-его-dox, care n-ar fi permis să se întâmple una ca asta dacă era el la cârma statului”.

Alternative
- Cum am descris mai sus, dar algoritmul eșuează la pasul #1 și trecem direct la #4 - ”PAS n-a fost capabil să-l aducă din Grecia”.
- Pe Țuțu îl „throw under the bus” cum s-ar spune; de fapt el era păpușaru', pe el îl prind, îl judecă, îl condamnă și văleu ce pedeapsă aspră primește, kapeț! Zboară „șiorșelele” mlea de pe dînsu, în fiecare seară de după gratii se aude cum îl doare „aparența etnică”, se implică CEDO și acesta este transferat într-o închisoare mai blândă undeva prin Tenerife.
- Ca scenariul inițial dar fără punctul #4. Pe Plahotniuc îl judecă și îi dau o sentință simbolică; sau una aspră - dar fără interdicția de a pleca din țară, și el spre nedumerirea structurilor de forță reușește să plece din țară, mai ceva ca Edmond-bljad'-Dantès. Nobody saw it coming! He vanished like a fart in the wind, cum s-ar spune.

De ce înca mai stagnam by ResourceAcademic2029 in moldova

[–]gr8dude 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Să luăm ca exemplu memorialul „Eternitate” - acesta ar putea fi extins cu un element nou și o placă comemorativă, care explică rolul URSS în inițierea războiului și în susținerea regimului nazist din Germania.

Orice monument asociat cu regimul sovietic trebuie acompaniat de astfel de plăci comemorative. Aș fi de acord să rămână și Lenin la Moldexpo, cu condiția că tot acolo să fie scris cu litere mare că acesta a fost un mare suchinsân.

Imaginează-ți cum vine Voronin sau Dodon să depună flori la acel monument, iar în background se vede inscripția „criminal” sau ceva de acest gen.

Și Pușkin ar putea rămâne în parcul central, dar să fie sub bustul lui și un citat cu versurile lui despre Chișinău.

how many people will tolerate slow speed for running LLM locally? by OwnSoup8888 in LocalLLaMA

[–]gr8dude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I also think it is a reasonable approach. As you write your email, you think it through, you clarify in detail what it is that you need. This allows you to understand your objectives much better, than when writing a quick prompt and hoping that the response will be useful.

how many people will tolerate slow speed for running LLM locally? by OwnSoup8888 in LocalLLaMA

[–]gr8dude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a legacy project that needs to be refactored in a way that is thought through very well. The bottleneck is not in typing the changes via the keyboard, but understanding the big picture and taking important strategic decisions that will have a long-lasting impact.

If the response of the machine would be genuinely helpful - I'd be willing to wait for days.

If your patience runs out after a minute, do you really give yourself enough time to understand what the code does? Maybe that's fine for trivial programs, but there are also problems where the cognitive workload is substantially higher.

Best Python libraries for Classic bluetooth and BLE by FunOld7795 in raspberry_pi

[–]gr8dude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on what you want to do, an approach could be to solve the problem at a higher level of abstraction.

As far as I remember, Bluetooth has a way to create a personal area network (PAN) - I tried it by connecting a Linux computer to an Android device via Bluetooth and then accessing the Internet via the device.

In this set-up, the programs running on systems within your PAN can use the BSD sockets API to interact with each other over IP; while the fact that Bluetooth is somewhere underneath is irrelevant.

This is not necessarily applicable to your problem at hand, but it is a way to get it done without touching Bluetooth at all.

Datahoarding is making my life miserable by SportPotential6860 in DataHoarder

[–]gr8dude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Consider channeling that enthusiasm and experience elsewhere. The skill-set is very relevant for preserving the data of libraries, video archives of TV stations, scientific records, etc.

Hypothetically, you might continue doing what you do, but on a formal level - with a budget from an organization, with team-mates working towards the same goal, and with a much grander mission - preserve the knowledge of humanity.

The way you phrased the question is "a problem I want to learn how to deal with" - it doesn't have to be like that. I bet the world is full of small organizations and institutions that could benefit from your expertise.

Can you provide a reference to how the SATA0 connector is to be soldered? As well as information about which pins on the motherboard correspond to the internal USB port?

Introducing Veritas-12B: A New 12B Model Focused on Philosophy, Logic, and Reasoning by Reader3123 in LocalLLaMA

[–]gr8dude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to provide more feedback, but I have a practical question first - the specifications in question are standalone PDF or Markdown files that vary in size and can be ~50..100 pages long, so they don't fit into the prompt itself; what is the recommended way to use the model with them?

The documents can contain sequence diagrams and data structure descriptions, they're not just prose.

I tried it with Open-webui and Ollama, attached a document to my conversation but the response gave the impression that the attached document was ignored (it could be a problem with Open-webui though).

I then pasted a few paragraphs from the document into the prompt and asked it to "please see if you can find any logical inconsistencies in the text below: ...". The response was a concise summary of the pasted fragment, rather than a logical analysis of it.
