I do self-host some services but it bugs me that a lot of articles that talk about costs do not factor in a lot of additional costs. Drives for NAS need replacement. Running NUCs means quite an energy draw compared to most ARM based SBCs.

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not.

Just in case it isn’t - it’s obviously reference to late DMX’s legendary song with the same title.

SUVs and crossovers are most popular cars in Europe.

Sadly, it seems Meta made some good decisions in LLM area at least. Llama is a de facto base of most good 7b and 13b LLMs, the ones that have potential on running on low grade hardware.

The conclusion of the research is that solution energy efficient and cheaper. Smart bulbs are nice, but they solve neither of the issues mentioned. They need to be powered on all the time and you still need the switches either way, unless you design your home to be solely smartphone controlled but nobody does that.

Looks like a typical Stable Diffusion model. All of them have the same problem - lighting. It’s always with that bad front facing “flash” effect.

@gorogorochan@lemmy.world avatar

Quite frankly it still leaves the effect. Same goes for dark photos - that’s actually even worse. Trying to create a picture of dark wooded area always results with some sort of weird lighting be it moon or whatever fake source it generates - and yea, that’s already with “darkening” Loras and negative embeddings. If you mean photography-related lighting terms then even with that I find the lighting unnatural.

It’s great that peak scientific minds are trying to create green, glowing monkeys. It’s not like humanity is bothered by plethora of problems. Let’s chill and torture some monkeys instead.

@gorogorochan@lemmy.world avatar

Did you? It says that it at one point MIGHT be useful to chimerize the monkeys to research neurodegenrative diseases. Making it glowing was just to make shit easier for them, not for any scientific purposes.

And yeah, I get it, scientific breakthrough comes with a cost, but there’s reason why primates are not generally getting chimerized…

I think sadly you’d either way get much better performance with proprietary drivers especially if the focus is generative AI.

Meanwhile every trained model on Civit.ai produces 12/10 Asian women…

Joking aside, what you feed the model is what you get. Model is trained. You train it on white people, it’s going to create white people, you train it on big titty anime girls it’s not going to produce WWII images either.

Then there’s a study cited that claims Dall-e has a bias when producing images of CEO or director as cis-white males. Think of CEOs that you know. Better yet, google them. It’s shit but it’s the world we live in. I think the focus should be on not having so many white privileged people in the real world, not telling AI to discard the data.

How did you get from what I wrote to “tearing down” anyone is a bit puzzling. It’s simply about striving to change the status quo and not the AI model representing it. I’m not advocating guillotining Bezos or Musk, hope that’s clear.

@gorogorochan@lemmy.world avatar

Also sure, let’s judge male white CEOs on merit. Let’s start with Elon Musk…

Also I can’t understand why there are people here assuming that the only way to “focus on having less white male CEOs” == eliminating them. This shit is done organically. Eliminating wage gap, providing equal opportunities in education etc.

I prefer GNOME to KDE but while I understand that there’s research and philosophy behind some of the decisions, I just can’t get around some of the quirks. “Workflow” itself is fine, with tiling on top, you can get by. But those window decorations… So much space is taken by a completely useless, fat bar at the top of each window even though it’s not really aimed at being touchscreen native.
