You can get by surprisingly well on 20b parameter models using a Mac with decent ram or even 8b parameter models that fit on most high end (eg 16gb) model cards. Depends on your use cases but I almost exclusively use smaller local models.

Things like this are why I seriously think the next steam deck may include an ARM based version. Possibly a smaller, lighter, more switch like device alongside something more like a z1e equivalent device.
Steam Frame may do a lot for VR but also for ARM gaming.
My secret hope though is risc-v also somehow gets on the map.
Agreed there. The only advantage is if you have more performant silicon for a given power envelope that exceeds the compatibility overhead of running through FEX. This is why in early days, Rosetta occasionally did just as well on M1 Mac’s as the Intel based software, with the leap in performance more than overcoming that translation layer impact.
This is true. But I’m more looking at the work they’re putting in on the Frame as a bellwether. It seems odd they’d support a tiny platform for them with an ARM cpu (that matches typical Android phone hardware). It’s possible they just want to increase the compatibility layers in that space in a general sense.
I guess I’m looking at the M5 chip 2x’ing the performance (single core) vs the M1 variant from 5 years ago almost exactly, and over that same frame the best desktop cpus have seen a 1.5x’ing. A mobile chip does better single core than desktop chips from AMD and Intel (caveats here). The perf per watt is absurd.
To be clear, I don’t think this will happen quickly. I expect another 2 years before the next steam deck arrives. I just think it’s interesting that valve is supporting a non x64/x86 architecture in a product category here and have a hard time believing it’s a total dead end for them.
Just to be fair, the MacBook pros are actually a tremendously good value if you actually need their power. I’d kill for a full Linux machine running on comparable hardware to their M5 processors.
That said, it just reinforces that if they made a screen you needed to be plugged into your MacBook for (and for low power on the go, like watching a movie on a plane, you could have a small battery pack that lasts for a few hours and use your phone for the content), it would be an absolute thoroughbred for sales. You could offer it for 500-1000 dollars and folks buying 2 and 3 thousand dollar MacBook pros, or 1200 plus dollar phones, would tack that on like they do Apple Watches and AirPods. That should be their goal.
Their mistake was trying to make a standalone product. They should’ve made a companion piece that was more affordable.
I think everyone is also missing the very real possibility that this might not have been an adult male. I don’t think we should presume it was consensual, in part because I don’t think we can presume the individual was old enough to consent.
I think RHEL9 uses 5.14 as base
I believe Destiny 2 also doesn’t work. I just don’t play it anymore lol
Make it 12x the lowest paid by hourly rate. Then maybe it’s 32 hours, or less, but you’ll be paid no more than 12x less than the highest paid employee on an hourly basis.
Also, the hourly wage should include all compensation, including benefits and stock options, so they don’t try to stuff their benefit and stock packages (eg private plane and company car).
Also, tax all wealth above 20x the median wealth of the nearest 100,000 people at 90%.
Hey some folks responded here which is great! For me, I think wiki and tracker are perfect like someone else mentioned, because a lot of folks without accounts can still access the knowledge created. The hard part is moderating of course. I’m not sure there is a perfect solution.
Ultimately, you’re producing something cool for the community and you get to set the terms for that; if discord is easy and sustainable, I prefer that to you doing anything else that isn’t sustainable to see the project through as long and vibrantly as you can. So in that sense just choose what makes sense.
So in short: do what makes sense for you and if one of the alternatives listed (maybe wiki it seems? That would be cool with me) works then that’s great!
I guess I’ll also plug forgejo or codeberg at this time haha
Edit: I’ll also say, more folks here for discussion is cool too, and good to have you posting and hope to see more discussion around it in the future here!
MIT license, cool! I’ll check this out. Any chance to migrate from discord to a more open platform for community engagement?
