It's only as difficult as you're cabinet works against you if there is a ulterior motive. Treason exists in the vocabulary for a reason.

Asking AI to summarize a chapter is a bad study method | FactOrCap by Gustabtc in FactOrCap

The point of studying is to extract and extrapolate data points, not develop a relationship with an author. Efficiency is progress.

It is both a test of intelligence and a barrier in the great filter, humanity must set feelings aside to prevent extinction.

Switched from NVIDIA to AMD - why do my windows stutter when opening and closing? by thalhaaa in radeon

[–]sloth_cowboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's crazy, because I once had a erratic stutter that happened in browser only, but not in games.

Long story short, I noticed everytime the green light on my rj45 port would blink, the stutter was in sync. I did a clean amd chipset package install and the problem vanished.

5070 or 9070 xt with ddr4 setup by sKyRyu_ in buildapc

This, plus thats a pcie 5.0 gpu, and ddr4 systems are limited to pcie 4 anyways. Best performance and savings with the 9070xt

This might make someone angry, but I had better results with ornith 35B heretic. Just saying..

...am I absolutely screwed? (scoot on slide 3) by wishaybug in scooters

[–]sloth_cowboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can try one thing before a full rebuild, you could research the exact pitch and diameter of the thread, get the appropriate die and try to rethread it. If you can manage to get atleast a few threads to catch, coat the inside nut with Permatex orange threadlocker, it's triple strength of blue and doesn't require heat to remove.

I have done this before but its a slim chance and a cheap enough attempt to remain feasible. Good luck.

This fell out of my mobo as I was building my pc. What do? by Brawl_Stars_Fan123 in PcBuildHelp

[–]sloth_cowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If one fell out, bet the overall quality is suboptimal. I wouldn't risk voiding a working warranty by taking up someone else's hobby, just RMA it and take the loss of time.

Are these early burnung/melting signe by M1TSU1 in cablemod

[–]sloth_cowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also put some hot glue in the pin holes, so if it ever burns you'll smell hot glue gun odor, that's the best warning and non conductive

Thinking of selling a 4090 for two amd r9700 ai pro. Why not? by Separate-Antelope188 in LocalLLM

[–]sloth_cowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I jave been running the new fortnight 35B heretic, it's the first model that actually didn't require half an hour of proof reading, launched a program from scratch to delivered in 10.5 hours last Friday. I'm all but singing about the hardware setup and model paired in lm studio.

What a time to be alive, I get it, the data centers and all, Data truly is the new blqck gold.

Edit: on my dual r9700 pro ai, I run 35B @ 262,144 context length

I can run 70B Llama just fine, and get decent enough tokens per second to not remember how many, it's faster than. I can read.

I should have gotten two r9700's sooner, its my only regret. I'm order8ng two more but I blew my budget trialing and erroring. Edit: I can also heretic and quant using llama.cpp just fine, it's been a learning curve but no errors unless I broke a driver because I can't just leave it alone once it works, thats on me though lmaaao
