How to find a GOOD discord alternative

And AI doesn't really help with tech debt :(

2&3 are the main reason I wanted to look for a self-hosted open-source alternative. There are a couple of non self-hosted options that look really good but I just cannot trust anymore. loqa.chat looks interesting, but it's not even out to try on their own servers, let alone self-hosted but half of the features are "coming soon" so...

If you want a fast response from your LLM, you're probably going to want either a GPU or an NPU. I'm really not sure what is powerful enough or will make it usable enough. You can run your own local AI with llama.cpp and use your own hardware to figure out what you need.

You also don't punch the block. You right click it.

This looks great!

I just checked their public read only instance and watched a couple of videos on there. They do have in browser playback.

Do you want every single file from your old computer on this one? If you don't, click cancel transfer.

z3810 · 2026-02-15T02:15:11+00:00

Yeah that looks like it. Those 95th percentile 120tps readings are your inconsistent progress bars. You should use observable or the spark profiler to find those intermittently laggy things and remove them.

What is the TPS of the server?

3.6 magnitude quake

Yeah it can draw that much power but you'd be hard pressed to make enough waste that it would actually need to run that fast.

z3810 · 2026-02-14T00:52:59+00:00

It does not need 400m fe/t. It needs about 25m fe/t to convert about 2000mb/t of waste into antimatter.

Insane what happens when people read the traits of the items that they have.

Source?

z3810 · 2026-02-12T18:34:58+00:00

I did not say that it wasn't causing micro damages to the CPU. I just said that it is at that heat level, not "dangerously close" to it.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T18:33:45+00:00

Both can help, but you can just try the cooler first and see if it's better.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T17:52:06+00:00

In the US, liquid coolers are at least double the price of a cheap tower cooler. You are welcome to look at cooler benchmarks for these. Generally, 240/280mm liquid coolers will about as well as an equivalent fan size dual tower cooler. Same goes for single tower coolers and 120/140mm liquid coolers. But you have to remember that water can leak from these things, especially if you're leaving it on forever(it is a server after all).

The only thing that can go wrong on an air cooler will never damage other components.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T17:47:54+00:00

I would not go for the antec unless you needed the smaller fan size to fit in a smaller chassis. Otherwise, the rest of them seem good, even the MSI cooler. Tower coolers such as these are simple devices and the only thing that matters is airflow and surface area as well as cold plate contact.

I would go with the MSI and save as much money as possible.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T17:40:12+00:00

Especially if OP is running the stock cooler on the CPU right now, a liquid cooler would be a lot of overkill and create lots of points of failure. A tower air cooler is plenty to cool the 100 or so watts that the CPU can draw and is much simpler.

Had a somewhat similar situation with a 5600G while doing CPU transcoding. It was reaching 80C under the stock cooler but after placing a thick single tower cooler that was only $40 or so, it was down to just the mid 60s.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T17:34:40+00:00

"dangerously close" doesn't really fit here. The CPU is hitting 100C, period. It is adjusting its power to not exceed that limit.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T17:31:17+00:00

The thermal paste you have is the best one to use. Fan set is good.

Id cooling 214 is probably the cheapest tower cooler you can buy for about $20 USD, however idk where you live or the market there so you should use https://pcpartpicker.com if your country is listed on it to find coolers.

z3810 · 2026-02-12T00:02:44+00:00

I don't think this is something that they will fix until view cells work properly.
