Improvements in inference speed would also manifest itself on those bigger models that may only partially fit into GPU VRAM. In some cases, the improvement on the GPU side alone, is strong enough to basically turn what you would previously consider a too-slow-to-be-usable higher quality model, into a faster, usable one.


What's a peleton? Genuine question from a non native English speaker.


I think they mean peloton. It's not English, I believe it is French, meaning a group of bicyclers. In this context it refers to the peloton leading the race.+-


Also you can right-click a playlist and select "Exclude this from musical profiling" (translated from my native language). I did that for many older playlists I'm no longer into, and this seemed to cause a significant steer in weekly recommendations which have since turned to be much more in line with my current tastes.


This doesn't work well with browser extensions which darken web pages color themes (like "Dark Reader"), as all the painting colors will be rendered to black.

I know It might be obvious but having those extension always on I tend to forget they sometime can cause some visibility issues, so I'm leaving this here :)


I have Dark Reader and had no issues.

There's a global setting in Dark Reader to "Detect dark theme" pages -- when that is enabled, this game is automatically detected as using a dark theme so the Dark Reader plugin is disabled for the page.


But the Clone-a-Lisa page does not use a native dark theme, and the problem seem to be just with the paint colors, which in my case for some reason are altered by Dark Reader. It could also be that it was a temporarily glitch as I've noticed that color manipulation by Dark Reader can be inconsistent at times (could be due to DOM loading timing and stuff like that).


Thank you!


Or better: the web ate the OS resources. Or better: an app ate the OS resources.

Which is exactly what resources are for, when eating is performed correctly :)


Ok, now take the number of years during which Firefox was slower and calculate an averaged value of its speed. This will account for all the frustration it would have caused switching to it in the past. Being faster for 2 days, 2 weeks, 2 months, and probably even for 2 years wouldn't be enough to cause a big change in that averaged value. And that would also measure how much of a guarateed good choice would be switching to Firefox right now. As soon as it will stay faster for enough time to smooth out the differences then I'll start consider using it.

I've been a Firefox advocate and user for many years, but then about 6 years ago I had to face the hard truth of how bad it performed with lots of tabs open, and how much of a pain I was causing myself for not switching to a Chromium powered browser.

About one month ago, I've checked it out again under the same conditions... and sadly it's still not even close to competitors' memory management.


What's the best LLM I could run on a 12 GB VRAM GPU (Nvidia) ?


The pandemic made it so much worse for a lot of people I know. Or should I say it was exactly those people who made it worse for all of us? I am sure that a certain slice of the population my age


Where's the demo number? Can't seem to find it?


In the main post! It's +1-650-729-9536 :)


Does anyone here use the free Feedbro extension? I'm asking because it's working really good for me and I've never seen it mentioned here when it comes to RSS feed clients.
