I pretty much just want a functioning vanilla Gnome desktop, remap caps lock to control, and I’m happy.

I’m on trixie, since recent Mesa has many fixes for very old Radeon GPUs, and it appears to be on by default! At least, I didn’t intentionally turn it on and it’s on.

I think I did go with LZ4 after looking at benchmarks; I figured on a weak CPU speed would be more valuable than another few percent of compression. I’ll have to look into the RAM page read-ahead.

Did you need to compile a kernel to enable it? I’ve just done the project of installing Debian on a 20 year old iMac with 2.5 GB of RAM, and while zram definitely seems to help, I’d love to try this as well.

I think what he means is that the unique identifier for a database record is a composite of two fields: SSN + birth date. That doesn’t mean that SSN to birth date is a one-to-many relation.

This is making me realize that I don’t fully understand the relationship between “instruction-tuned” and “pre-trained”. I thought instruction tuning was a form of fine-tuning, and that fine-tuning comes after the primary training of the model.
