One thing I love about usenet is that it's great if you're just looking for one episode, song, etc and don't want to download a whole collection.

Why replace torrents? Why not use both? It's a bonus if your usenet provider includes a VPN.

Remember it? I still have mine. Got games dating back to Monster Truck Madness, all the Need for Speed games before they went batshit crazy, and about 2 years worth of PC Gamer demo discs.

Awesome. I never heard of Kino Lorber before they announced Monk on Blu-Ray, but now I'm a fan.

Yep, I had been hoping for the same thing.

Also, to @projectmoon@lemm.ee, you might want to wait and see what gets announced at Computex next month. Hopefully they announce some new stuff and the current gen prices drop.

Ollama doesn't currently support mixing CUDA & ROCm. https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/3723#issuecomment-2071134571

One thing to keep in mind about adding RAM your speed could drop depending on how many slots you populate. For me, I have a 5700G and with 2x16Gb, it runs at 3200Mhz, but with 4x16Gb(same exact product), it only runs at 1800Mhz. In my case, RAM speed has a huge effect on tokens/sec, if I have a model that has to use some RAM.

You can check AMD's spec page for your processor, but they don't really document a lot of this stuff.

This is why I want Intel Arc to succeed, because maybe it'll make AMD take Radeon more seriously. It's been a steady decline since the ATI days (2006)

I love my Ryzen though.

I think it's because architecture-wise, these are more in line with the 8000 series. The 7500F is a full featured Ryzen 7000, but with broken graphics. These are basically 8000 series APUs, so they have the lower PCIe version, lower cache and fewer PCIe lanes, and broken graphics.

I suspect the price will come down soon because no one should be buying these at this price. The 8400F is only $10 less than a full 8500G.
Edit: I just saw that the 8400F is a six-core, so maybe that helps justify the price.

I think it's a decent metric. The important thing to know is that no single guide is going to work for everyone, everyone has to adjust it to their situation.

Me, for example, I have a 401K balance of zero. Every time I leave a job, I roll that over into my IRA, then into my Roth. I just like having control over my accounts; 401Ks have too many restrictions. But to each his own.

I think 5 is what I'm looking for. Sometimes Civ (in general) gets out of hand with the micromanagement. I want something that's kind of casual.

I've been looking to try Civ 5 or 6, but haven't decided which one yet.

Did they give up on trying to put X3D into laptops?
