Why does this not have (day-one) support for Ollama? The previous model is on there? Is it related to the ongoing refactor work or are people abandoning Ollama for other LLM engines?
Well, there are only so many nouns, and even fewer "cool-sounding" ones. For better project differentiation, do you think we should instead be naming things "ZurgGlurg327"? I'm sure you can find a completely-unique combo for each thing, but good luck remembering the name!
docker images and ubuntu releases use an adjective, this could at least allow some alternatives like bold/supreme/decisive/depressed eagle (or just use battery staple)
I wonder if they started work on this before RAM prices spiked. Not sure how most people expect to be able to afford 128GB of RAM in today's market. Also, one USB-C and one USB-A is pretty minimal connectivity for an otherwise high-powered, wildly-expensive laptop.
It's probably a Lenovo board, which usually has most of the IO on a daughter board connected to the Mainboard. Only the USB-C that had the display port/HDMI alt mode sits on the Mainboard.
That's a widespread practice among OEMa that want to use the same board in a 13/14" chassis and a 15/16" chassis. They just need a longer cable to the daughterboard for the larger laptop. That usually means all the high-power and high-speed ports are on the same side of the laptop and on the far side you get USB 3.0 and headphone ports.
Well, good thing you aren't drinking it then, because the complete lack of electrolytes would kill you far faster than the microplastics. Surely if they can chemically purify the water to chip-making standards they can filter out the microplastics (when they are done with it)? At least one can hope.
I'm sure, like any metal at an industrial scale, it is profitably recyclable. But that is beside the point. This is akin to asking: "My car's engine just threw a rod and is seized. Is it recyclable?" Hopefully you see in this analogy that the car (engine) costs way, way more than the sum of its parts (the constituent metals).
Sounds like OpenAI might be trying their hand at TPUs, like what Google has. They are one of Google's biggest advantages in AI right now. It would also give them insurance against Nvidia being everybody's hardware supplier.
This actually points the opposite direction, to doubling down on commercial GPUs.
NVIDIA recently told their board partners that they will need to source their own RAM and will not be bundling it with chips anymore.
If there is a supply crunch on DRAM, commercial GPU production lines will start having idle downtime. That is literally the worst possible thing that can happen to a company that has invested heavily in tooling and they will negotiate at or below cost production runs to fill the gaps if a customer can bring their own DRAM to the table.
What do you mean “might be” trying their hand? It’s been widely reported that they are doing exactly that. It’s even known that they are doing it with Broadcom.
Both of those write a single ISO to your USB stick, while Ventoy allows you to store numerous ISOs in a folder on the stick and choose which to use at runtime. Also, you can store other files like normal with the remaining space on your stick.
Data privacy and security don't matter? My secondhand RTX 3060 would buy a lot of cloud credits, but I don't want tons of highly personal data sent to the cloud. I can't imagine how it would be for healthcare and finance, at least if they properly shepherded their data.
For most people, no, privacy does not matter in this sense, and "security" would only be a relevant term if there was a pre-existing adversarial situation
