Per poterlo fare possono, ma è ovvio che sia una palese presa per i fondelli.
Cambia banca. Se son 4 euro l'uno con tre bonifici mensili hai già pagato il canone mensile per un conto business con zero spese aggiuntive. E puoi certamente trovarne a meno se sei dipendente con stipendio accreditabile.
I've never used oobabooga but if you use llama.cpp directly you can specify the number of layers that you want to run on the GPU with the -ngl flag, followed by the number.
So, as an example, a command (on linux) from the directory you have the binary, to run its server would look something like:
./llama-server -m "/path/to/model.gguf" -ngl 10
Another important flag that could interest you is -c for the context size.
This will put 10 layers of the model on the GPU, the rest will be on RAM for the CPU.
I would be surprised if you can't just connect to the llama.cpp server or just set text-generation-webui to do the same with some setting.
At worst you can consider using ollama, which is a llama.cpp wrapper.
But probably you would want to invest the time to understand how to use llama.cpp directly and put a UI in front of it, Sillytavern is a good one for many usecases, OpenWebUI can be another but - in my experience - it tends to have more half baked features and the development jumps around a lot.
As a more general answer, no, the safetensor format doesn't directly support quantization, as far as I know
I watched the features trailer and it gives me the vibes of an attempt towards a weird Kenshi in a wuxia world, which is not bad per se, but there are really not a lot of info on how the grind (the meat of this type of games) really works.
For now it seems mostly a map based sandbox with lofty ambitions... but the graphic style is lovely!
I'll try to keep an eye on it, even if it probably will not find the light of release for a couple of years more (IMHO)
Good find!
If things haven't changed recently: remember that each time you get a giveaway game from the site you are (re)subscribing to the newsletter too
Yeah, incredibly frustrating.
The only acknowledgement is from a volunteer mod on reddit that said an hour ago that "the team is aware and the status page will be updated shortly".
The fact I had to dig around to find that is really not a pleasing experience.
~~Their systems currently report that everything's fine, which - to be fair - could be a misreporting and change at any moment~~
~~Anecdotally all their landing sites load fine for me~~
~~Tackling it from the other side: could it be a problem with your DNS?~~
~~Did you try with another network? Like wifi or mobile data~~
~~EDIT: Formatting~~
EDIT: Tried again and now the email service seems to not be loading
EDIT 2: It is being reported on other sites too, but currently there's nothing official I could find, not even on their Mastodon or Twitter various accounts
EDIT 3: On reddit the volunteer mod alex_herrero wrote an hour ago that "The team is aware and [the] status page will be updated shortly".
You'll die, just make it matter
That's the bad thing about social media. If no one was doing it before, someone is now!
Jokes aside it's possible, but with the current LLMs I don't think there's really a need for something like that.
Malicious actors usually try to spend the least amount of effort possibile for generalized attacks, because you end up having to often restart when found out.
So they probably just feed an LLM with some examples to get the tone right and prompt it in a way that suits their uses.
You can generate thousands of posts while Lemmy hasn't even started to reply to one.
If you instead want to know if anyone is taking all the comments on lemmy to feed to some model training.. Yeah, of course they are. Federation makes it incredibly easy to do.
Probably I'm missing something but I've read the parent comment as a way to highlight the hypocrisy behind making extensive use of something while, simultaneously, wanting to bar others from using it
I don't see an insult in there, given the choice of words and the context, but maybe I'm missing something fundamental?
This was all theatre where nothing in reality changed, to show how tough and intransigent this admin wants to be: the real problem is that if formally and informally allied nations start to think that the USA would really commit to bullying as a real negotiation tactic, they will start to divest from it and expand their pool of partners to make these tactics less impactful.
This could be disastrous in the long run, with decades of integration and diplomacy going in smoke. But in the short term there will be a lot of "winning", as they keep saying. I guess.
The first Trump term was seen as a short term derailing. The second one has a complete different international impact.
Goodwill is a real diplomatic form of currency and it is getting burned at a real fast pace.
