I think he's talking about that specific account in the group, I think. I've also noticed several other posts with that profile picture of the black guy with a hat and sunglasses sitting in his car.

This is important. I dunno about scale, but backups. I started out hosting a chat room on a raspberry pi. It was a fun side project. But then, that became where my friends all hung out. That was the place, so it became important to me. And then the SD card got corrupted. I then moved on to a consumer laptop. It was way more stable, much faster. But if I messed up anything about the installation, I was hosed.
I very highly suggest using Proxmox, like you say, and setting up automatic backups. And occasionally transfer them to a hard drive. It doesn't matter what kind of virtual CPUs or services you install, gedaliyah@lemmy.world, as long as you have a plan for when something you host becomes important to you and you lose it.

Oh fuck, I want that. Gimme gimme.
MercuryAlloy automates the build process for the Mercury browser. I really like the Mercury browser, but I worried about the browser getting out of date, since releases of the browser seem to be build and released manually. So I threw together a set of scripts and overrides that will allow the build process to run without user interaction and on a schedule. You can modify the subscripts to move your compiled executable anywhere you want (like a web server), as well as send a custom alert upon successful build (like sending the link out via email). This is a more technical project, but it has been a fun learning experience.

Unfortunately the US is just... very right wing. Even the democrats are right of center on most things. This is just a conservative country. The democrats are about as left as you get in this country with any mainstream support, no matter how much we wish it weren't so.
And I know man, I hate it, and I'm not going to lecture anyone that votes their conscious. If you don't want to vote for democrats, and Biden specifically, I can't blame you. It bewilders me that the most we can get from him over a goddamn genocide is "that's a little much, Jack." If you can't vote for that I get it.
Just don't fall into the trap of thinking that the US is more left leaning than it is. We might win on issue-to-issue polls, but when it comes down to it we're a selfish nation that has bought into the temporarily embarrassed millionaire meme. And I don't think that's just the pessimism talking. We have generations worth of work ahead of us.

That's how the auto-fill works on kbin when you add a new link. I'm not sure if it uses the summary provided by the metadata of the site, or if it pulls x amount of words/characters.

No, when you post a new link on kbin, it autofills the text section of the post along with the title. Try it yourself. Copy the link, click the plus sign at the top, click "Add new link", and paste in the URL.

That's not a bad idea. Surely it could be automated within the image. If my ADHD allows me I might take a look at it later. :D
Middletown Township Chief of Police Joseph Bartorilla confirmed the suspect in the death was arrested just after 9 p.m. Tuesday.
I tried to get SD-XL to generate an image of a frog with its eyes closed. It refused. I even cranked up the attention on closed to an absurd level, and it seemed to get sassy with me.
Should blocking a user still allow them to vote on your posts? I'd rather have nothing to do with particular users, and it seems that they continue to show up in the activity for every single post I make around kbin.

From their website ========== Mistral AI team is proud to release Mistral 7B, the most powerful language model for its size to date. Mistral 7B in short ---------- Mistral 7B is a 7.3B parameter model that: * Outperforms Llama 2 13B on all benchmarks * Outperforms Llama 1 34B on many benchmarks * Approaches CodeLlama 7B performance on code, while remaining good at English tasks * Uses Grouped-query attention (GQA) for faster inference * Uses Sliding Window Attention (SWA) to handle longer sequences at smaller cost We’re releasing Mistral 7B under the Apache 2.0 license, it can be used without restrictions. * [Download it](https://files.mistral-7b-v0-1.mistral.ai/mistral-7B-v0.1.tar) and use it anywhere (including locally) with [our reference implementation](https://github.com/mistralai/mistral-src) * Deploy it on any cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure), using vLLM [inference server and skypilot](https://docs.mistral.ai/cloud-deployment/skypilot) * Use it on [HuggingFace](https://huggingface.co/mistralai) Mistral 7B is easy to fine-tune on any task. As a demonstration, we’re providing a model fine-tuned for chat, which outperforms Llama 2 13B chat.
When editing photos, one of the first things you'll want to do is "fix" the skin of your subjects. I've fumbled around with this for years. I use almost exclusively open source tools like [GIMP](https://www.gimp.org/) for my work, which while extremely powerful, often lack most of those automatic tools and niceties present in paid products like Photoshop. So I'll share my method, which I adopted from this [YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXczatmj19o).
Depending on how much you self host, you may find it hard to keep track of your devices' host names. So what are your naming conventions to keep track everything? Some people stick to descriptive names, others pick themes, like Greek mythology. Personally, I use [Japanese emperors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_emperors_of_Japan). I've made it all the way to Seinei. Luckily I still have some breathing room to add more services and servers. Much to my wife's chagrin. :)
This is a Mastodon thread I created featuring devices and computers that never were, but could have been.

I just bought a "new" [homelab server](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095TRGCSX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) and am considering adding in some used/refurbished [NVIDIA Tesla K80s](https://www.ebay.com/itm/145033307727?epid=218398338&hash=item21c4a8a64f:g:nd4AAOSwNcJko5BX&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4GZbCSkquonxteg1ULCf36L5CtQ%2FCez8IMGR3VjSeDzIZ%2FGb3Ch75%2BmznQH9Nniggowbz5OX940rRmuSeX0BD8Q98MTwwvOYLUy0gHVcUGYyVCMXsL2CXBLE2%2Fm5SLudYEZHnm8TOp1KKPbpNrqIsPAFXaGp4NYULVOzswjIwP9RvWXSWvJvQlvIZSdRSPKdMv33%2BrzD%2F52rsSPHt2UVBWxCMvYf474zxY5EDvOLWfVBIsJSE%2Bz8OXihrRI1Hz8fr0DHcUMv9l9wIPzUILCpFTJg31GmZ9GPd7K7JNc0Nugb%7Ctkp%3ABFBMmuG8pqZi). They have 24 GB of VRAM and tons of compute power for very cheap if you get them used. The issue is that these cards run *super* hot and require extra cooling set ups. I was able to find [this fan adapter kit](https://www.ebay.com/itm/285334670361?hash=item426f458c19:g:K7AAAOSw9~FkjLkg&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwHWTFiwnzr9VR6kmp1lPWhG1ScDcODw8OFU20ZkA8vW41DgQCaMKz3bZaEQWDu2SzPGCFCl3hfnm7H4%2FqQIePvZXr9%2Fyh8L9vdrdb5rMAdXLsacC9qREJcenWHxlm4oS%2Fv1gkgU9urywv0ISS5pddfagukTRWudWV841w%2F3IPxiF%2Bp7u9KJ2iqyPCg28oyLA7okwEbDpFoz0kddi55wxp8le7SQQXNA9MODKCGhlGiXBxtWR4lrImgUJMvPJ6W3LsA%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR6b80aamYg) on eBay. But I still worry that if I pop one or two of these bad boys in my server that the fan won't be enough to overcome the raw heat put off by the K80. Have any of you run this kind of card in a home lab setting? What kind of temps do you get when running models? Would a fan like this actually be enough to cool the thing? I appreciate any insight you guys might have!

OverClocked ReMix is a video game music community with tons of fan-made ReMixes and information on video game music. --- I figured since we're currently in a reawakening to decentralized and special purpose forums and websites, now might be a good time to remind people of OCRemix. Or help someone discover it for the first time.
