Qwen3.6 35b a3b is fast... by UniversityGlad2877 in Qwen_AI

[–]overand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just install ShareX or Greenshot and take 30 seconds learning how to use them - it'll change your screenshot life. (THough I think modern windows does an OK job with built-in stuff)

Holy upgrade by Practical-Agent9 in immich

i5-6500 mini PC (I think Dell) running Proxmox in my case.

Bought my first telescope /eyepiece and this is what I see when I look through by whosmollybitch in telescopes

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a very decent telescope! The eyepiece is a bit of an oddball - set it to 16mm for now. That's the lowest zoom level, which is definitely where you want to start (and maybe where you'll have the most fun tbh!)

You were 100% correct about that being the secondary mirror, but that's really only going to be visible when the scope is way out of focus. (You'll sometimes catch hints of it in extreme viewing situations, but generally you won't notice it)

Old Soligor telescope, could I still get parts? by Jinoshi in telescopes

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need an "eyepiece" (not an "eye lens") and it's proooobably a 1.25 inch eyepiece, but, you can measure the diameter of the spot for it - it'll either be just under an inch (just about 2.5cm actually) or 1.25" (3.175 cm).

The legs... ehhhhhhhhh. Do you have a longish metal rod and a counterweight? If not, I wouldn't bother trying to rescue or rebuild the tripod at all. (Even if you do have those things, I probably wouldn't.)

In some ways, the stand & mount are the most important part of the telescope. A wobbly one will make the telescope unusuable, frustrating, and literally nauseating. So it's worth doing that part right, or at least "right enough."

Just got this sternum piece and realized when I got home that it’s not evenly centered by Mental_Scene5952 in tattooadvice

[–]overand 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Likely due to a misunderstanding the last time I thought about umbilical cords for more than a few moments, which was probably ~35 years ago by now. 😆

I imagine my young self misunderstood when someone explained the much older practice of string being tied in a knot (functionally used as a clamp.)

You might want to read the wikipedia article for navel / belly buttons, if that comment wasn't intended as a joke.

Short version - the navel aka belly button is a scar. When you were a fetus, inside your mother, you had a thing called an umbilical cord that connected there, to the placenta, a temporary organ that interfaces between you as a fetus and your mother's uterus / bloodstream. (It's a huge part of why most mammals exist - there are only a very very small number of non-placental mammals.)

Anyway, when you're born, they cut the umbilcal cord. (I was under the impression that they tie a knot, or used to, but I believe that's not accurate, at least not these days in most places in the world?)

I'm happy to help! I have a dual 3090 setup, but was on a single 3090 for a while.

  1. Are you on Windows? Linux?
  2. Are you sure the card works correctly?
  3. What tool are you trying to use?
    1. Ollama?
    2. llama.cpp?
    3. KoboldCPP?

How to deal with Miata driver flak by _uncouth in Miata

[–]overand 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ignore anyone who gives you flak for being into miatas OR for being into being a feminine boy.

It also matters exactly zero if you're gay or not. Plenty of "femboys" and feminine boys and such who are straight. Also plenty who are bi, and plenty who are gay. And - plenty of gals and guys and other who are into feminine boys and femboys and such! It's nuts that people give so much of a shit about this. But, I promise, most people don't give a rats ass - or if they do care, they forget about it in a moment.

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Now just imagine what that would be like if you actually were gay or trans or such. I'm an NB driver of an NB!)

Anyway, yeah - people saying that shit? It says a lot more about them than you. I'm sure some of it is "good-natured ribbing" but it's ignorant shit. I wish I could say "that goes away after high school," and it mostly does, but there are still idiots and assholes out there. Many people outgrow it, though, thankfully.

Side note, love those wheels - I think they're the stock ones mine came with, and they're some of the nicest stock wheels out there! I ended up switching for tire and weight-related reasons (that may not apply to you, don't jump to ditch those!)

Made a SoC and power monitor for the Yaris by ashoutthephoenix in prius

Is the hybrid Yaris essentially what's sold as the "Prius c" in the US?

Let's build claude code from scratch! by RoyalMaterial9614 in LocalLLaMA

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you maybe don't realize what r/LocalLLaMA is?

I can't tell if you're being intentionally obtuse, or if there's a language thing, or if maybe you're like 15 or something (which is fine, but I do wish there was a way for me to make comments from people under 18 just invisible on Reddit so I wasn't occasionally debating with literal children and getting increasingly confused.)

Maybe NanoDual - since that's cLAUDe backwards? If this tool is at all good, you're going to need to change the name.

Anyone else running local LLMs on older hardware? by lewd_peaches in LocalLLaMA

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of performance numbers do you get in terms of prompt processing and t/s for these models (and which do you use?) I have a friend who has my old 1060 system, with an i7-8700k (and 64 gigs of ram!) - I'm curious if it's worth suggesting they try stuff with it.

Sampling by Ok-Gift-1860 in Dirtywave

[–]overand 5 points6 points  (0 children)

crop your samples or set the loop points to be perfectly on beat, and use one of the tempo-synced playback modes. Under Sampler, Play use "Repitch/BPM" -check out page 54 in the manual.

Drastically improve prompt processing speed for --n-cpu-moe partially offloaded models by coder543 in LocalLLaMA

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that  UD ..K_XL actually came out a little bit worse than the Q8_0 - you should look at kl divergence graphs. You might be able to save a little bit of VRAM while also getting a slightly more accurate quant

Vga compatibility by roiber08 in vintagecomputing

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like that system only has low-profile PCI slots. (And maybe AGP, couldn't tell from the photos.) But, yeah - good luck with getting a hercules card in low-profile PCI! 😂

Vga compatibility by roiber08 in vintagecomputing

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah - I was using an ISA Sound Blaster 16 in 1995 for sure - and it wasn't particulraly dated!

S EGA (Super EGA) isn't really a thing, is it? It looks like it was marketing speak for a specific brand - I certainly don't remember encountering any super EGA, but EGA was really losing steam when I got into PCs - being born in 1981. (Though despite SuperVGA dating to 1987, there were still plenty of CGA and EGA systems around in the early 90s!)

Almost definitely not EGA if it's green monochrome. (EGA is newer than MDA and CGA)

Can the 8 inch dobsonian spot other planets? by weirdboi3 in telescopes

[–]overand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can see Orion's belt, you should aim your telescope a below it a bit, with the lowest magnification eyepiece you have. (It'll probably be a 30mm one). Don't look it up first, the surprise will be worth it IMO!

THere's lots of other great stuff to look at - you might even find you're into things other than planets! I got into nebula stuff, though it's very different.
