It really isn’t all that popular these days

It's popular amongst regular linux users, I mean if I was to take your opinion seriously then someone clearly made a mistake here:

https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2024/technology#1-operating-system

Someone put Ubuntu in 3rd (after Mac and Windows) and Fedora in 12th under ipadOS and "Other linux based" 🧐

In terms of popularity amongst neckbeards who argue over linux distros then yeah, Ubuntu isn't that popular you're right

I think the saddest thing here is that Europe has no capital markets union where it's own private companies should be putting this money in

Europe will always be behind while it's more difficult to raise funds and do business

This AI is just the latest thing, who knows what else Europe will soon fall behind in

The PfE says it is founded on national sovereignty

It consist of Marine Le Pen’s Rassemblement National (France), Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz (Hungary), Matteo Salvini’s Lega (Italy), Geert Wilders(The Netherlands), and Andrej Babiš (Czechia), among other parties

I love that all the different right wing parties got together to push for nationalism, it's almost like they did not notice that there are benefits to being together while being together ^^

[-] Eyekaytee@aussie.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yep, we have https://sh.itjust.works/c/localllama may as well use it, don't see why not

Especially with LM Studio/ollama able to run on a headless server

This release introduces the GPT4All Javascript Sandbox, a secure and isolated environment for executing code tool calls. When using Reasoning models equipped with Code Interpreter capabilities, all code runs safely in this sandbox, ensuring user security and multi-platform compatibility.


I use LM Studio as well but between this and LM Studios bug where LLM's larger than 8b won't load I've gone back to gpt4all

Current EV batteries are not even close to being suitable for grid energy storage

What do you mean?

https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2024-11-15/vehicle-to-grid-v2g-electric-vehicle-technology-soon-here/104498552

It can definitely store more than enough to power a household over night, for some people potentially a week, If I use 10kwh a day and have an 80kwh+ size EV battery it will definitely provide me with enough cheap power for a week and complimented every time the sun comes out

I still don't understand why there aren't great big fat energy pipes connecting Europe to Algeria and getting in a whole ton of that year round cheap sun energy

some sanitized AI that doesn’t understand context or slang

That doesn't make sense to me, AI does understand context and slang, that's what makes it great for language learning, previously with basic language translation like google translate/dictionaries etc wouldn't understand localised context and slang
