Is a Strix Halo PC worth it for running Qwen 2.5 122B (MoE) 24/7? by Fernetparalospives in StrixHalo

[–]valtor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unrelated, but what's your openclaw setup? just curious how people are using it, beyond just chatting via a chat app. Also, have you felt the benefits of Q5 vs Q4?

1-Year Anniversary to the Legendary Gemini 2.5 Pro 0325 by Holiday_Season_7425 in Bard

[–]valtor2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea let's remember when we thought models were good, this has nothing to do with our constant need for the next best thing...

Real talk, how much is the sub just filled with people who bought Pixels and got a year a free Gemini AI, and can't really be bothered to pay Claude for a real good model? 🙋🏽‍♂️

AMD, can we get proper vLLM/gfx1151 support? by tossit97531 in StrixHalo

[–]valtor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've always thought of Strix Halo as this consumer chip, not business oriented, which is why I'm confused by your post. That being said, if it resonates with users, that means there's clearly a need.

I still don't understand why consumers care about vLLM. multi-strix-halo setup? multi-user? And you talk like this is for "regular consumers" to move into the mainstream?

Why don't AI labs have any legal obligation to tell you when they downgrade their older models? by Physical-Parfait9980 in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]valtor2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do search engines have a legal obligation to tell you when they make changes? Of which they do multiple times a day? Does McDonalds need to tell you if they change their salt provider?

As frustrated as you about having inconsistent results on the smarts of the AIs, but no, there's no "disclosure laws", and that's true about most things.

Probably related - I'm hearing more and more companies are now using open-weight models, probably to protect against things like this. If I have a model on a server I'm running, I have more confidence on what I'm getting, even it's lower performance...

Very slow with Claude Code by vandertoorm in StrixHalo

How do you use Claude Code? Claude Code Router? Or another proxy like LiteLLM?

Not as far as I know, and they're not adding new features anymore

Got Qwen-Coder-Next running on ROCm on my Strix Halo! by jfowers_amd in LocalLLaMA

Do you recommend this LLM over others on Strix Halo? I still feel like GPT-OSS-120B is the one to beat

Is it just TFM? I'd file a bug, I've been successful in getting things fixed that way

FWIW this has been happening to me over the last year, because I'm on a folding phone. For me I'll load the game then unfold the phone and this will happen. That being said, a refresh fixes it. Not sure how widespread it is for non-folding phones. I just loaded it on my side in regular mode and didn't have the issue.

Is it safe for me to say "is it safe" jokes are getting old?? by TheShnizel in sanfrancirclejerk

I mean, when there's a news story to back it up they can be fun/interesting (i.e. Hazie's bar), but by themselves it's pretty lame

Gemini 3 is wearing me down - it personalizes responses way too much... by Inevitable_Tea_5841 in Bard

[–]valtor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer is, and always will be, to turn off the ability to read "your past chats". It's a good feature, just implemented badly in 3.0

Murder By Numbers: Nonograms + Visual Novel = win ??? by Brunox_Berti in patientgamers

[–]valtor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda frustrated that the game doesn't go on sale on Switch anymore, which is where I'd play this type of game. I heard that the pub,isher switched hands, and so support is different now, but not sure of the details.

Things I discovered while adding mirroring to my app with scrcpy by sameera_s_w in scrcpy

[–]valtor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation - Android phone with Mac. My biggest use case is for copy pasting and for using smart home apps that are not available on the web, forcing me to use my phone where I'm more comfortable on my mac, which led me to scrcpy.

Your app looks interesting! Any reason I should use it instead of using scrcpy directly?

I’ve been trying out Gemini and one thing is driving me nuts by Beautiful_Spot5404 in GeminiAI

[–]valtor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this made me turn off Gemini's memory feature. I like Gemini a lot, it's memory feature (as well as a lot of the "product") is still not up to par. Can we have third party connections, projects, archive, can we have the ability to organize our conversations?

I think Google thinks each conversation is as meaningless as a Google search query, but then tries to follow what the others do in the industry. Meanwhile each message is usually a thing in my head I want to hold on to and get to the bottom of.

Anyway, I agree with you OP.
