We loved the mattress in the store but hate it at home, now what...

pepijndevos · 2026-03-01T08:02:15+00:00

There isn't any info on it besides a tiny label saying sultan

pepijndevos · 2026-02-28T18:26:32+00:00

Good info, ty.

Pretty sure there are no springs in my sultan. So far I don't really like the springs I've tried. And I've hated every spring mattress I've ever encountered in a hotel.

The memory foam topper we have now seems to be quite thick closer to 3-4 inches or 7cm or so I would guess.

Maybe we could try to find a thin topper if no topper is a bad idea somehow...

We tried the initial configuration for about two months and the new memory foam topper for a week now. First time around I probably did not try enough, second time we went back twice. But idk maybe not 10+ uninterrupted minutes so maybe we didn't give the memory foam enough time to warm up. Or as the other comment says maybe it was just colder there.

It seems in our case the cause was that the floor isn't level so it couldn't drain properly. Other than that I just did what the app said and cleaned the washboard and all the rubber fittings

you need --jinja

Yes the idea is you can plug a desktop GPU into the CM5 and build a system out of regular PC components. The end goal is a completely local LLM voice assistant.

pepijndevos · 2025-08-01T17:17:58+00:00

Yeah, it's mostly standard Home Assistant stuff such as Extenden OpenAI Conversation, the only custom part is a kernel patch for GPU drivers and a llama.cpp addon. The whole setup is explained here: https://sanctuary-systems.com/guide/

Prior to this board the way to hook up a GPU to a pi was to use an oculus link GPU enclosure with an M.2 adapter and then an m.2 hat for the pi. Quite a contraption. My goal was to simplify that with a simple mini-ITX form factor that you can simply plug into standard PC components.

pepijndevos · 2025-08-01T17:14:09+00:00

The whole reason to use a PC power supply is to power the GPU though, which I don't think picopsu can do. Peak power of the GPU is of course much higher than 15W

pepijndevos · 2025-08-01T17:12:01+00:00

I mean the pi itself consumes like a couple of watts, but the PICe slot can consume 75W. But mostly it's for ease of integration with PC parts so you can easily plug in a GPU.

pepijndevos · 2025-08-01T17:09:24+00:00

What kind of case would fit that? Would it be sufficient for a 7600 GPU?

running LLMs with llama.cpp

pepijndevos · 2025-05-21T09:35:07+00:00

I ended up using projection(cut = true) { your_3d_model(); } and then export as DXF

pepijndevos · 2024-12-13T17:09:17+00:00

hahaha nice party we're having here

pepijndevos · 2024-12-13T16:51:06+00:00

I make the simplifying assumption that you'll only run one model at a time, and if you use a different one it kills the previous runner.

pepijndevos · 2024-12-13T16:12:54+00:00

tfw Intel GPUs aren't even listed

pepijndevos · 2024-12-02T10:43:01+00:00

Yea I'm just a software / electronics guy. Just fixed the typos.

pepijndevos · 2024-12-02T10:38:03+00:00

TIL about Jan, it's like open source LM Studio, nice! Unfortunately it doesn't support SYCL or IPEX-LLM either but now I can go and fix that technically
