Thank you. You’re not annoying, and I appreciate you posting this.

Obviously.

I’m in Michigan, and completely disabled. I always do mail in voting because I can’t go to the polls.

They didn’t send me my ballot this year, even though I logged in and made sure a few months ago that I was still enrolled and they’d send it.

So now, the only way I can keep my voice is to physically go vote in person, which I’m not sure I can do.

They’re actively taking votes away from the disabled, in other states. The California thing is bad, but this is happening everywhere.

No, obviously. OP was disappointed with commercial LLMs, and I’m just saying you’re not going to get better results from a local LLM without a lot of work. If you want to devote a lot of time, knock yourself out, but understand it’s a lot of work and won’t be better than what you were disappointed in.

If you want to do it as a hobby and use it to help with shopping or automating search tasks, sure. There’s your Lada, and if you need a Lada, cool.

I was answering OP’s question, not trying to wax poetic on how having your own ai pet sucks in general. Like I said, knock yourself out. Just know this isn’t trivial.

What I mean is you’re not running anything comparable to the industrial LLMs you are already disappointed with.

Sure, you can run a limited model, but it’s not going to compare with the big models. If that’s what you’re expecting, you need to spin up a data centre.

To be fair, he should be happy about this outcome because discovery would have fucked him.

Not really, no.

You can technically do this, but it’s going to be so expensive and so much work, it’s not going to be worth the effort, especially if you already think your interactions with LLMs haven’t been worth it.

To make a self-hosted LLM worth your time, money, and resources, you’ll need to make it basically a part time job.

He’s trying to set everything up to declare martial law or something. No way he’s going to accept the coming blue tsunami. He’s going to make everyone pay for the coming betrayal.

Why do you think?!?

It’s not a mystery.

Ya don’t say.

Meanwhile, some of us can’t afford McDonalds. Or electricity.

Ow! I stabbed out both my eyes for god! Follow me to the truth!

Ffs don’t say that out loud.

Uh what? lol.

Apparently, this satirical news: Mamdani to introduce rules requiring schools to teach ‘Arabic numerals’ pissed a bunch of people off.

It’s ridiculous, obviously, but some people are far more racist than rational.

Where the absolute blue fuck do these people think mathematics came from? I’ll wait.

Sing it with me: 🎶 It’s always projection 🎶

I have to assume this is because they also think this is normal, which makes me highly suspicious they’re sex offenders (or want to be) themselves. Why else would they think this is okay? So now, if someone tells me they’re a republican, I recoil because I have to assume that means they’re fine with rape.

Even imagining republicans might have courage in any scenario is kind of hilarious, ngl.

But wait – Hillary had shared recipes for prosciutto. Prosciutto!!!

Who hasn’t trump raped, really? It honestly seems, given what’s in the Epstein files and in interviews and FBI reports, that every young blonde woman in his circles has either been harassed or raped, because he has a fucked up compulsion and no ability to constrain himself. He thinks all such women not only owe him that, but should be grateful for his disgusting, grubby attention.

He’s like Jabba the Hutt but somehow more disgusting. I think the list of women in his orbit who were not subjected to this shit would be much shorter.

Those passengers are plebs, fuck em.

Well sure. The confederacy never died, they just privatised. How else are they gonna keep their slavery without the GOP in charge?
