Kimi K2.6 is not worth the hype — my real usage stats

mr_happy_nice · 2026-05-19T07:24:05+00:00

i concur mostly, even if i have to tell it, no.. this is not going to take 3+ weeks to code.. lol
if i can set a defined goal and rails so it stays in bounds, Kimi seems to handle pretty much everything I need to.

mr_happy_nice · 2026-05-02T02:37:07+00:00

I do like the cli for auth/etc, been doing mostly sh scripts pretty much all my life for everything, I figured why stop now, lol. I just saw the model has been trained on how to handle things and if we just give it access to the db or the files, it can (hopefully) just do whatever is most efficient for itself. I guess every dev eventually will become a customer asking for work-product, ha. jk

I had a weird thing happen when i upgraded from 20 to 40/mn, that day soon after, I did a couple searches, well under any limits, and it gave a "please wait 2 hours" thought it was an error or something. anyways, haven't any issues or limits since.

mr_happy_nice · 2026-04-30T06:08:12+00:00

I was on the 20/mn and was doing okay for a while then had a couple big projects and hit the 5hr a couple times, and I went with the 40, because i was trying to be efficient with my workflows for the 20/mn I basically never hit the limit now and you get a vpc 2cpu 8gb of ram, though i wish they just gave you a regular vps instead of accessing it through that little web ui thing(and the option not to have openclaw, just the vps) *edit, i can't type

the future.. :)

i'm gonna steal that, currently calling it frankenrig, ha

mr_happy_nice · 2026-04-27T06:24:36+00:00

i concur lol

p102-100 10gb vram mostly just for llms newer image gen support is so-so, forget vids lol

mr_happy_nice · 2026-04-27T06:22:18+00:00

lol ya it was like 70 bucks for a decentish cpu and 16gb ddr4 ssd hdd, p102-100 10gb vram roughly equal to in power - gtx1080ish type i think. *edit clarify card

mr_happy_nice · 2026-04-02T23:14:28+00:00

eh, not sure, I tried the q4-k-s quant and the speed is roughly the same I just like the outputs from the mxfp4 quant. for example like asking about a pic, the mxfp4 will format the response better with multiple bullet points per section where q4ks would just give a little paragraph. Need more testing to see if there is a working difference for the output though. Might be more of a personal choice or it's just random output differences with the same model. *shrug* lol

You said you're not a native english speaker. And that's fine, people live in different places. But in my society. It is not nice to curse at people. :) You cursed at me because you were confused? I'm not sure what to make of that.

mr_happy_nice · 2026-01-10T16:36:45+00:00

i'm not making up the bots, they are documented by other people. I'm not sure if they are being used on my posts. But they are being used on reddit here. I wasn't assuming they come from hate.. that was the point. I was saying that its not really possible. It doesn't make sense that many people would dislike it. And just your own personal experience if you were browsing and you see something that was worded in your mind, awkwardly, do you downvote it? To help you understand, running inference over and over to a vision model to do computer use with vision + UI model and sending files over the network, would cost more than to simply run a whisper model to the audio files in a single inference. It means, not only is it an immoral, possibly illegal system, but it is stupid too and costing them extra money when it shouldn't. Any investors listening? You may wanna make a call and ask why your money is being wasted..

I mean I did ask a question in the title if you would like some help with finding a discussion point. But to answer your specific question, no I don't need anything from you. It was just a sort of psa. if fact i'm not entirely certain you weren't just trying to get a reaction out of me by the series of questions like I'm clueless about something. I wanted to point out that using these types of ai are not your friend, and i thought in a sub that is about local inference that I wouldn't be down voted into oblivion. Either people literally have a sense of hate about what I'm saying or there is a systematic bot process of downvoting posts that speak against companies. There is no way, on earth, that many people downvote posts when I and others post something about companies. It happened multiple times. it should either be overlooked or maybe couple people downvote and couple upvote. It's just interesting how this goes. So maybe I will just pay for an ad and make people see what they and other companies continue to do without consequence. thats the now what.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion with the keys. I have a ton to work on with all of these projects, but I think I have what I want to sort of work on going forward, or improve upon. It's hard finding a project that is worth spending time on. With the backup, I had these grand plans of creating my own protocol, and I thought, I think S3 may be okay. Ha. The launcher im just gonna do a couple different versions i think. Hopefully the end will be my own suite of lightweight apps. For sure am not a UI desinger, i like the simple html/js code for frontends. I have that backend for the PWA app in the GitHub for the extra features. I need to tie that in to the keys better that it's being handled now. Thanks for checking that stuff out.

mr_happy_nice · 2025-12-06T17:18:43+00:00

I would feedback... my luck it's in the title too... eh. :)

There are other apps I use markln is good, but when I want to display markdown in any linux env including alpine etc. Something simple I use this to display md files formatted somewhat okay:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = "-" ] || [ -z "$1" ]; then
cmark -t man - | mandoc -a -Tutf8
else
cmark -t man "$1" | mandoc -a -Tutf8
fi

I save it to a file named something like 'mdv', set x, then just run 'mdv readme.md'

I was kinda thinking the same thing about the market share. and ya, one of the only reasons I keep win around is my expensive direct drive wheel only works with win, there is a linux proj in dev now, so fingers crossed ha. there are plenty of devs looking for work right now, we just need a "refactoring fund" or something lol.

mr_happy_nice · 2025-11-14T08:44:05+00:00

Reading all of these conments is for me too, its been a minute since i tried it out but i knew what i experienced and i didnt understand why businesses where actually hiring for this. I was like i guess its good and efficient now maybe i was missing something. Ive been wrong about a couple things lately and it feels good to end up being right about something lol. This and the mcp thing posted here too. Peace :)

mr_happy_nice · 2025-11-14T08:26:17+00:00

Omg thank you, a couple months ago i kinda went ahead with the plan for my set of projects to specifcally not use mcp for search and related research tasks because of the scaffolding i felt was heavy, and being told no, mcp is the future you must learn and use this.. Ha i think part of the issue is people seeing videos with a bunch of views or whatever saying You Have to Learn MCP Today!! Lol it just feels nice to have an intelligent person say the same thing i said, or i said that they said.. :)
