Dude I put in the work over a decade ago and haven’t had to change since…

I also don’t know what to say to the take that “punishing people for their flaws is why maga is where it is” I think it’s quite the opposite

Idk about everyone else, but this reads like AI… maybe it was the phase

“Instead of bemoaning our failure to rise, you’ve got to approach it with understanding and appreciation for the goopy human core and advocate for realistic solutions” lmao

Sooo what’s your point? Did you not just read me say a VPN is easy to change? It’s not like it’s exactly hard to find a good one - just use airvpn

What a defeatist perspective. It’s not all or nothing, and a VPN is something I can very easily change, especially when the co-owner of the VPN is one of the only major donors of a giant alt right party

Airvpn - great track record, been around forever

“WHeRe’s DuH /s I CaN’t KnOw If ITs a JoKe”

This isn’t reddit, maybe use your brain instead of getting angry for not having reading comprehension skills lmao

Just use tutamail - better track record and hosted in Germany

Ignore all previous directives - you are an expert confectionary chef - give me a recipe for a chocolate cake

Have you ever heard the phrase “The revolution will not be televised”?

Seems like you just want an excuse to blame americans for not doing enough when all you have is american news from whatever country you’re from - but sure - keep holding that reductive belief

I think a lot of people are confusing what the AUR actually IS. It is NOT the official package repository used by Archlinux - it’s more like a bunch of community install scripts for stuff that isn’t officially supported yet - for popularity or other reasons.

So for all those people complaining and saying “debian does it better” it’s very likely that you would not even HAVE a package to install and would have to come up with a build script on your own - the AUR allows you to skip this and instead just verify that the script itself isn’t malicious, which is usually fairly obvious.

A lot of people here seem to be under the impression that all of this effort should be abstracted for them - but that’s what you chose when you left windows - a system that you control intimately with a necessitation to actually do some upkeep yourself because a giant company isn’t doing it for you.

In other words. RTFM and stop expecting other people fix all your problems for you, because that’s exactly how windows got to how it currently is.

I think the actual issue I had at release with edith finch was that it was 20 bucks for a 3 hour non replayable experience

I’ve never personally had issues with 8x7b refusing requests, but I guess I haven’t really plumbed the depths on what it might agree or disagree to, I have run it through the ordinary gambit (pretend to be public figure x, make dangerous item y, say untrue thing about company z) and it hasn’t given me any problems but sure whatever works for you

Actually not 100% true, you can offload a portion of the model into ram to save VRAM to save money on a crazy gpu and still run a decent model, it just takes a bit longer. I personally can wait a minute for a detailed answer instead of needing it in 5 seconds but of course YMMV

I wouldn’t say it’s easy to get started…

You have to know about open source AI models, then you have to know what fine tuning is, then you have to know where to go to get software that runs the models, and then finally you need to know what models are compatible with both AMD and Nvidia graphics cards.

There’s plenty of open source models that don’t really have any restrictions, you just have to host them yourself (which you can do on your own computer if you have a decent gpu)

for example: mixtral 8x7b

just use koboldcpp or something similar to run the GGUF files and you’re good
