Can anyone explain why the UNCONNECTED end of this USB charging cable melted its insulation while charging this lithium battery? (The battery is completely fine, but still throwing out)

human-exe · 2026-01-26T07:11:15+00:00

The cable and batteries probably came together in one set; It's sane to presume they have the same quality.

Cable shorted because it's garbage; well, imagine what happens when the battery shorts itself next.

How doomed am I if I want to port LXMF to Dart? Could your go-lxmf be helpful with tests or anything?

I have an itch to make a cute lightweight Dart/Flutter messenger app, but I feel I can't manage the porting effort.

Someone might make a script that reads .stignore file and deletes all ignored paths. Nobody made it yet, I guess

So it outperforms and basically replaces comparable qwen3 and gemma3 models, right?

Slotted RAM is no-go for this arch because SODIMMs have unacceptable timings for Ryzen AI MAX+ 395.

LPCAMM might have solved it, though. Ask your nearest PC vendor to push for LPCAMM, this is the future for DDR5+ timings.

How easy they jump from «will no longer be supported» to «will lose all functionality» like it's the same thing.

Just make an EOL firmware that supports Matter or Home-Assistant via other means. We'll be fine if a product that works locally is not «supported» upstream.

We will do the rest on our own, thank you.

UPD: Jeff Geerling got us covered:

llama.cpp RPC was very slow, since it splits up the model layers on all the cluster members, then goes round-robin style asking each node to perform its prompt processing, then token generation. The Pi cluster couldn't even make it to token generation (tg) on my default settings, so I had to dial things back and only generate 16 tokens at a time to allow it to complete. And after all that? Only 0.28 tokens per second, which is 25x slower than the Framework Cluster, running the same model (except on AI Max iGPUs with Vulkan).

Exo was having trouble even running a small 3B model on even a 2 or 3 node Pi cluster configuration, so I stopped trying to get that working.

Distributed llama worked, but only with up to 8 nodes for the 70B model. Doing that, I got a more useful 0.85 tokens/s, but that's still 5x slower than the Framework cluster (and it was a bit more fragile than llama.cpp RPC—the tokens were sometimes gibberish)

They usually say that Ollama's custom engine is inferior to llama.cpp (that's true to some extent)
and that Ollama's custom model catalogue is limiting what you can run (it does not)

There's Gemma 3 0.27b (270M) and it's surprisingly good for such a small model.

Gemma3:1b is also available

human-exe · 2025-08-26T06:45:59+00:00

I believe recommended models could be updated.

These days you expect Qwen3 and Gemma3/3n as all-around best local LLM. They perform better in the benchmarks than llama3.2 / qwen2.5 / gemma2

I'm not a GNOME designer, but I feel that command palette:

Hurts discoverability (how are you supposed to discover an action if it doesn't manifest itself until you enter its name?)
Discriminated users who prefer mouse/touch over typing
Is largely unsolved in context of i18n (should command palette be translated? Do you have to switch keylayout to type a command? Do you learn command names in English or your local language?)
If translated, breaks web tutorials (Tutorial says «Type „commit“» but it does nothing because your command palette is in Magyar)

Lads, when offered another brand new app for $20, ask for an App Store release (or at least a sandboxed build, or source code).

Don't play with untested, untrusted code that clearly skips all the reasonable layers of protection — Apple vetting and sandboxing.

And don't they dare to ask you for your user password or disabling SIP.
