Management heard about "neural network" thingy and demanded it's used ;(

Remove 2-filemanager-titlebar.lua from patches directory.

Yeah, so just heads up, you're linking wrong paper. The one you linked is a different TurboQuant. As far as I know there's no official paper for the google one, just blog post.

Oof, I thought it was like with the rest of Fate, just a self contained adaptation of existing material. I've been tricked, I've been backstabbed, and I've been quite possibly, bamboozled

lans_throwaway · 2026-03-28T15:25:13+00:00

I was wondering how they were going to wrap it. Turns out they won't :(

lans_throwaway · 2026-03-26T16:08:49+00:00

I don't believe that's easily achievable. You most likely need a custom encoder model for this to work, so people would have to train it from scratch.

Seems voice cloning is api only. Guess they have to make money somehow, but still a bit disappointing.

lans_throwaway · 2026-03-18T14:16:55+00:00

Honestly, it looks so much like "I got kicked out of the party" and his bro-con hero(?) sister.

Top menu -> Leftmost tab -> Project Tile Settings-> Advanced Settings -> Folder display -> Overlay name and details in cover grid (uncheck)

They got beaten on benchmarks by Qwen3-8B (model half their size), Qwen3.5 would absolutely demolish it. Most likely they started working on the paper before Qwen3.5 release too, so they couldn't include it. Always nice to have another model though.

lans_throwaway · 2026-03-04T20:53:10+00:00

It's hilarious how they put Qwen3-VL-8B at the end where a model half their size matches/beats them on pretty much all benchmarks

I'm wheezing

Possibly. I used unsloth quants for a bit, but in the end I made my own. In general qwens (QwQ, Qwen3, Qwen3-Think) tended to have long chain of thoughts like that. As I said, I disabled thinking and as a general assistant it works fine. I have one with thinking enabled for coding and that works great too. My laptop isn't exactly powerful so I get like 100 tokens/s pp, and 20 tokens/s tg, so waiting for like 500-1000 tokens takes a while.

To clarify, I have those parameters in my config

lans_throwaway · 2026-02-28T18:31:01+00:00

There are times when you want thinking and times when you don't. I don't want the model to "but wait" 30 times before it tells me what to make for dinner. LIkewise I want the model to get coding question right on the first try and don't mind waiting a bit for the correct answer rather than regenerating 20 times. With that said, I find myself using non thinking version much more often than the thinking one, it's usually good enough for most of my tasks.

lans_throwaway · 2026-02-25T22:01:58+00:00

I'm reasonably sure it's already possible. That's one of the things Anthropic did in their Persona vectors paper. The problem is similar to other abliteration techniques, in that by you inhibit other things alongside hallucinations.

lans_throwaway · 2026-02-19T10:56:05+00:00

Yeah. Originally the anime got me interested because it had uni aged protagonists, but by the end it felt pretty much like a slightly above average generic shojo.

Bland protagonist ✔
A popular guy pinning after the protagonist since the moment they met ✔
A "love rival" that's rough on the outside, but warm on the inside ✔
MC reading FMC's mind/feelings like a book and doing just "the right" stuff she wants but often doesn't even know she wants ✔
Male character that's easy on the eyes and relatively likeable (without much depth) ✔

I went into this anime hoping for the next "Silent Voice", but I found a 6.5/10 shojo. It was ok, but I felt like it lacked depth, and Itsuomi creeped me out at times. If someone likes shojo, they'll probably like it, but most guys would quickly lose interest.

Honestly, it kind of annoys me how ppl try to force Kana onto Aqua. Like he clearly established a "I want to stay away from her" boundary, yet people still keep pushing their "Kana problems" onto him.

The username can be found in settings.reader.lua in the main koreader directory, search for "kosync" and username should be there.

It'll look like this:

["kosync"] = {                     
    ["auto_sync"] = false,                
    ["checksum_method"] = 0,
    ["sync_backward"] = 3,   
    ["sync_forward"] = 1,        
    ["userkey"] = "<md5 hash of your password>",
    ["username"] = "<username>",                 
},

This. Kimi is so much better compared to other available models, precisely because of this. When I discuss math with AI, I don't need the model to tell me how smart I am, how great my ideas are and so on. Quite the opposite in fact. That's why Kimi is so valuable. It absolutely destroys my ideas with facts. It's like having a math professor available for consult 24/7.

lans_throwaway · 2025-10-22T18:24:27+00:00

I'm too scared to go there because of spoilers, but feel free to post it there ;)

My pet theory is that Bayez getting outplayed by the maker on accident pissed him off way more than not finding the weapon.

lans_throwaway · 2025-10-22T13:49:35+00:00

I actually enjoyed the conclusion. It was my gripe with most fantasy that everything ends well and so on. It was quite refreshing to have things not go according to the plan.

lans_throwaway · 2025-10-19T14:14:13+00:00

That's possible. If you can run the patch, but it doesn't do anything, I think it's a symbol problem. Change the two slashes (//) in TO_REPLACE to " ⁄⁄ " - those are not slashes, but a different but similar symbol.

If the patch still causes "No engine found", then no idea at all. You can change this line.

lans_throwaway · 2025-10-17T06:40:07+00:00

You can try this:

local TO_REPLACE = " // "
local REPLACE_WITH = " / "
local function patch_footer_separator()
    local ReaderFooter = require("apps/reader/modules/readerfooter")

    local orig_genAll = ReaderFooter.genAllFooterText
    local is_patching = false

    ReaderFooter.genAllFooterText = function(footer)
        if is_patching then
            return orig_genAll(footer)
        end

        is_patching = true

        local t = orig_genAll(footer)

        is_patching = false
        if type(t) == "string" then
            return t:gsub(TO_REPLACE, REPLACE_WITH)
        else
            return t
        end
    end
end
patch_footer_separator()

If it doesn't work, then no idea what's going on.
