well duh, of course it varies. Do you expect Windows Server to automatically install gpu drivers too? On CachyOS, EndeavorOS and Bazzite everything also works out of the box. And you don’t even need to disable one hundred and one microsoft-mandated bloatware when you install them.
un-fucking-fortunately. That’s twice as infuriating when you consider the fact that this isn’t even a hard fallacy to avoid.
uhm… you don’t have to hope…? You can literally check which driver is installed. You can even install preferable driver version via your package manager and delete mesa drivers if you don’t want your system to ever use the integrated gpu.
rutracker, 1337x, various bitTorrent searchers… And finally, for something that isn’t usually on torrents, there’s fmhy.pages.dev giving a whole list of possible directions to look at. Telegram would be the last place i’d pirate from. It’s a fucking messenger, and i’d rather keep it that way.
It’s almost as if neither “ai can do everything for me” nor the ai witch hunting are healthy approaches, but, as always, people keep polarizing themselves to hate on the opposite tribe.
I’m so fucking tired of this bullshit…
Lutris seems to be the solution for your problem. Also, for older games, often than not, you gotta try few different proton versions.
Except even this is no longer an issue. There’s nvidia-open driver, and, at least to my knowledge, it works without any problems.
What even is a “professional developer”? I mean, given that you aren’t an egg-headed RnD developing new technology for someone like Nvidia, the job of a developer is 95% mind-numbing routine and typical tasks solved by applying ready-made patterns.
i’ve heard of the dataset poisoning and degradation caused by llm-generated content present in the dataset myself, but i’m not sure whether it was a practical observation, or a mere experiment. And I still fail to see how new datasets are really useful for developing a new llms, or how it’s a problem for the devs to switch back to the older datasets.
And the cornerstone stays the same: to have any significant effect on the final LLM quality, shouldn’t the poisoned (either by llm-produced content, or by intentional poisoning) data portion be… well, statistically significant?
i think that sort of issues will no longer be relevant, considering that there are official semi-opensource nvidia-open drivers and that even wayland supports nvidia gpus just fine nowadays.
except for poison to take in, it should be a pretty significant part of the dataset. Also, ngl, i’m not much informed on the topic, but aren’t all the datasets, if we’re talking about generic diffusion models and LLMs, already been formed? From what i gather, the innovation in AI mainly comes from utilizing new architectures, rather than training a model on something unique.
not really related to the post, but NGL, it kinda fascinates me, how with the advent of LLMs, they became the ultimate punching bag for whenever something works bad, as if people didn’t write even more horrible things without them (my regards to javascript and python).
just to clarify, he’d not so much called LLMs “the new compilers” as he compared both to each other in a sense that an LLM is just another layer of analysis tooling between the developer and the final machine code, which, IMO, sounds much more reasonable than calling LLMs “the new compiler”.
Windows server is not “one of ~12 windows versions”. It’s a windows distribution that exists in parallel with normal windows.
IIRC, microsoft added automatic driver installation only in windows 10, so even if i indulge your sloppy attempt at drawing equivalence between major windows releases and linux distros, it’s two for three, and not in windows’ favor. Except there’s no equivalence. Windows versions exist much like any major release of any OS distribution with fixed release model.
Imagine a distro so bad, it has no package manager (or any software version control, for the matter). It has no customization, supports only the most primitive and prehistoric file systems. It’s so bad that even the users that were conditioned to use it prefer to stay on a decade old releases of it because the newer ones are just that much worse. Actually, you don’t have to imagine, because that’s just windows. The only advantage windows has is it’s desktop market share, but even that’s slowly diminishing lately.
Guess what? Unlike in Windows, you can delete all of it, just like literally any other program that you have installed. You don’t want it to be installed in the first place? Boy, do i have news for you, because Arch, minimal NixOS or even Gentoo exist just for you!
That’s the beauty of Linux, and FOSS in general. It gives you freedom. Windows only takes it, more and more. Each year windows gets slightly worse. Each year linux gets slightly better.
Preinstalled software suite is not even in top 10 of the things that are wrong with ubuntu. It’s just a bad distro. I’ll tell you more, despite whatever people are saying, Debian and all of its derivatives in general are quite less than ideal for your average desktop PC user.
