Scandinavian cultures are not uniform also. Danes can be very direct; Swedes - not so much.

What is reasonable hardware in your case? Doesn’t this model require 50+ Gb vram?

Gemma-4-26B-A4B does not require 50+ Gb of vram. It is a MoE model so only 4B of active parameters at a time and not as GPU dependent. I can run it on 16gb of vram and ~20gb of DDR5 regular ram for a 8 bit quant.

Getting downvoted by all the emotional people here is not worth it; this thread does not welcome a polite discussion especially from the pro-Israel side. Like in any social media with a voting system (terrible idea, I might add), the vocal and active majority wants to disentivise the disagreement.

I don’t see any pro-Israel side commenter here but me at best. IMHO I do my best to keep discussion as polite as possible having in mind the sensitivity of the topic.

I probably wasn’t clear in the above comment - but what I tried to say is that the thread disincentivizes pro-Israel comments; I am pro-Israel as well and prefer not to engage.

We are all being civil here. Could you please stop insinuating otherwise.

In Belgium you get 500/100 for 65 euro, which is even worse.

Gitea also, I think.

For some of us, there’s no uncertainty about other’s judgement - it’s just the op experience all the way down.

Let's apply Occam's Razor. Which is more likely? Every person you've ever met and will meet thinks you are terrible, or, you think you are terrible?

I'm not erasing the existence of the many people you've encountered who don't like you. But what if negative experiences in your past have eroded your distress tolerance and you now cannot distinguish normal human conflict from an affront to you, personally? Or, what if you have given up on human contact because, subconsciously, you made a calculation that simulacra of human contact might be unsatisfying but, like methadone, they give you just enough to avoid the real stuff?

I don't think any of the psychological pictures I have painted are necessarily correct. But I do know that what you're telling me is BS.

The link is: the first part was 'then', the second is 'now'.

Might be you're logged in? I often hit a block when using (proton) vpn if I'm logged out but not otherwise.

Indeed - sloppy reading on my part.

A couple of years ago, one rainy Saturday morning, I woke up with a devastating hangover and nothing else to do - so I decided to build myself a PC, like in good old days. Turned out it wasn't at all difficult to find a local store; only two-three hours later I was already driving home with all these sexy looking boxes filled with hardware. That was in Sweden.

This comment has been marked as subversive; your social consensus alignment score has been corrected. Thank you!

People are already conditioned to swipe their loyalty cards at the end of the shopping. Requirement to swipe Digital ID for transaction to go through will be a next step.

Low social credit score? Oh you cannot have those ice creams. You said something bad about the party online? No oranges for you. Etc.

People should wholesale reject this.
