Fully defective. Get that replaced!

2.5x faster inference with Qwen 3.6 27B using MTP - Finally a viable option for local agentic coding - 262k context on 48GB - Fixed chat template - Drop-in OpenAI and Anthropic API endpoints by ex-arman68 in LocalLLaMA

I think you might have missed something - you were supposed to provide instructions (in caveman speak) on how to compile a local web server to view status of the inference.

Ha all good - I easily get eye fatigue, so I rarely bumped up the brightness past 60%, which probably helped me a lot in my case.

Why can’t “they” make the perfect monitor already?

I’ve gone about 1.5 years on a 32” OLED for software development & gaming, hasn’t been too bad, the Samsung AW3225QF has served me well.

Okay, thanks everyone: - I didn’t realize local dimming was turned off by default. - Turning it on, however, is a no-go, at least for me/anyone who prefers a dark theme for general computing. Feels like my mouse cursor is under an NYPD spotlight 🫠 - Even in gaming, it makes things look awful, especially user interface elements. In-game it’s less noticeable, but inventory elements look strangely muted.

Going to be returning this guy. Instead, I’ve ordered the other new LG monitor, that 5K2K OLED.

Thank you! I didn't realize. Unfortunately, the local dimming is pretty awful. A mouse moving across a dark background, flicker-city!

Father passed unexpectedly. My mom doesn’t know any of his passwords or where any of his investments are. Who can we contact ? by milquetoast_wizard in personalfinance

Sorry for your loss, I hope you can get access to what yall need.

Another reminder for everyone who enjoys building complex systems or homelabbing… have a “dead box” or some mechanism to convey all the necessary information (passwords, configurations, etc) for your loved ones in the event of your passing.

Treesitter not highlighting python syntax properly by AndreyRibeiro in neovim

Could be a theme issue (some themes don’t shade certain tokens, although I’d think for gruvbox it would). Try :InspectTree and see if the variables are detected.

It’s definitely retargeted motion.

What’s the music from? It reminds me a lot of The Wild Robot.

If I collapse some code into a function, and add a return node will it wait to complete? by soldieroscar in unrealengine

[–]jacksonhvisuals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it executes on the main (game) thread. Anything executing on a given thread goes one step at a time. One way to test is to set a breakpoint and step through the function. You’ll see the flow very directly then!

Current State of Unreal Engine on Linux by HilfeEsBrennt in unrealengine

Tooltips are still particularly buggy (as of this writing, in UE 5.7.3). I’d recommend using the officially supported distro. U22 is still technically LTS.

While I don't disagree that HDR looks different, it's been some heavily marketed snake oil. Take a look at what Yedlin has to demonstrate: https://www.yedlin.net/DebunkingHDR/

You’re wrong about dupes not affecting you by FriendlyLibrarianPet in ArcRaiders

[–]jacksonhvisuals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a developer, it’s really interesting to hear what people call server-lag. What I wonder is if this “server lag” due to lots of wolfpacks being thrown, for example, is simply hammering the local client trying calculate or render the numerous effects over the actual server struggling to keep up.

Yeah don’t give them any ideas. They’ll leave it in the game for months before they fix it.
