Ollama with gemma 4 for LLM stuff, coding brainstorming, etc.

Comfy ui with z-image or stable diffusion for images.

Off topic, but it’s kinda cool to know younger folks are on the Feddiverse! Thought lemmy was just a bunch of old people like me haha

I recall a study where they trained 100 pigeons to categories categorize cancer in tissue samples and the average of all their responses was better than a single oncologist.

I’m probably not going to consult a flock of pigeons though for important things anytime soon though

I don’t know why isn’t it just the parents responsibility. For example where I live, you can get charged with “negligent storage of a firearm”. Why can’t there just be a “negligent allowing your kid to do whatever they want with no DNS filtering” offense

Not until you hit your token limit ;)

Not necessarily. If it answers you question and go go about your day, that’s not as good for Microsoft user numbers/engagement.

They probably want it to just barely get you exactly what you need to keep you on the edge. Once they start training models for user engagement the enshitification will begin

They just want it to he addictive so that people use it a bunch. Then they try to sell enterprise level versions to companies they can say look how much people use it, it must be because it is so useful

For really lightweight models, Qwen3:8b is pretty good for an 8gb graphics card.

Gemma 4:e4b is pretty good too. I usually sun that on my 16gb gpu.

Obviously the little ones aren’t as good as big ones, but you can always rely on real intelligence to fill in the gaps

$2 per year for my domain name.

I actually support this as long as the false positives are not too bad

Here’s the video!

I will say, I do like the idea of physically disabled folks getting to drive or co trolls robots/remote cars, especially if they have microphones and stuff.

I’ll look for the video, but there was this really cool Cafe in Japan that employed bed-ridden people to work as robots in a cafe

I’m still learning FreeCAD, but so far is seems just fine to me! Just different from what I am used to. But there are a few good channels on YouTube that do good tutorials

Yeah I was curious about that. Like I can poke around in the immich directory, but the actual pictures are stored in a weird structure. Do you have any recommendations?

One of my first self hosting projects was a jellyfin server. Double check, but I think the main hardware requirements are just 4GB of RAM and enough harddrive space for your videos/files!

I really like immich too. It’s like Google photos, but self hosted. It’s super fast for uploading and backing up your photos over your local network. Immich also needs at least 4GB of RAM I think

Don’t get me wrong, I love sci-hub. But the Sci-bot tools was super slow like took half an hour for a single repsonse , maybe they just need a bigger datacenter or smaller models

The idea is cool, but yeah I tried it and it was super slow. Maybe it could be useful as like a more semantic search engine than a chat bot

I guess I have been using gemma4 fro more role playing games. Qwen3.5 seems to be better coder actually

I also recommend gemma4 or qwen3.5. Both super solid in my experience for how lightweight they are

I don’t think VR need to be the “next big thing” but it is just a fun little thing. I have an old HTC Vive and I love firing up beat saber and taking turns with folks when I have company over.

Also vr chat is great!

It seem like people are obsessed with making vr better amd more widespread. I’m content with it to just be a fun little thing I break out every once in a while
