Mark Zuckerberg open sources 3 new LLMs in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I am not really concerned with which one is better or smarter but with which one is more resource intensive. There is a lot of opacity about the cost in a holistic sense. For example, a recent mini model from OpenAI is the cheapest smart (whatever that may mean) model available right now. I wanna know if the low cost is a product of selling on a loss or low profit margin, or of an abundance of VC money and things like that.

What is the parameter count for the famous proprietary models like gpt 4o and claude 3.5 sonnet?

Backing up photos and videos from an Android phone? (lemmy.ml)
 

There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.

Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.

Has the site become better or worse with time?

Why isn't there a mainstream "all landlords are bastards" or something similar? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The idea of profiting off of nothing but ownership is deeply rooted since it forms the foundation of politics and economy almost all countries in the world right now. Renters paying rent to the landlord is to some extent as natural as gravity for some reason. No one knows or cares how it came to be like this and it's seen as something that you must just live with.

In case anyone is interested in this game, I created a subcommunity to discuss the game with fellow lemurs.

A question about the Great (American) Resignation (lemmy.ml)
 

I see this being mentioned a bit in American media. I understand why this can happen. Capital does not want to pay living wages to the working people and workers do not want to work for pennies. There is no such thing as labour shortage, only capital not willing to pay.

But if people are just walking away from jobs, how are they affording subsistence? I have seen restaurants being closed because they don't have workers. So it is not only people who can afford savings who are quitting.

I can't phrase the question very well but the bottom line is this: I don't understand. So any insight you might want to share is welcome.

Is using paths to draw curves while inking in Krita cheating? (lemmy.ml)
 

I have gotten hold of a cheap drawing tablet and having a lot of fun with it. I only have experience with gesture sketching with pencil on paper but wanted to try inking and colouring too.

Drawing long curves with an ink pen brush preset is something I am having some trouble with. It is difficult for me to draw smooth curves and when I join multiple stroked together I get varying width and clear nodes which looks bad.

Would using a path to draw such curves be cool? Or should I just practice more?

Anyone here uses ZFS on root? (lemmy.ml)

I was considering looking into installing Void with ZFS on root if I ever need to reinstall the OS on my computer. So far the advantages I have read about have been mostly about snapshotting and restoration but I am admittedly more interested because it's a shiny new file system.

I am using a laptop with 250GB SSD. Would I benefit from using ZFS? Or is it overhyped? Any input is appreciated.
