The easiest way to run local LLMs on older hardware is Llamafile github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile

For non-nvidia GPUs, webgpu is the way to go github.com/abi/secret-llama

Beginner in need of real help!

I’ve been interested in self-hosting for a while, but didn’t really know where to start. I’ve never messed with Linux before and wanted to jump ship from Windows since Microsoft decided to start putting ads everywhere. I came across this post [lemmy.world/post/6542543] which was exactly what I was looking for to start, and...

d416,

Without knowing anything about your specific setup I’d guess the issue is with docker not playing nice with your OS or vice versa. Can you execute the standard docker hello-world app? …farhan.dev/…/hello-world-in-docker/
If not then my money’s on this being an issue the OS. How did you install docker on mint, using sudo with a package install?
Fyi don’t feel bad - I installed docker on 3 different Linux distros last month and each had their quirks that I had to work my way through. Docker virtualization is some crafty kernel-level magic which can go wrong very fast if the environment is not just right.

Here is the consummate thread on whether to use microsoft copilot. some good tips in there… lemmy.world/post/14230502

How can I use a local LLM on Linux to generate a long story?

I’m interested in automatically generating lengthy, coherent stories of 10,000+ words from a single prompt using an open source local large language model (LLM) on low-spec hardware like a laptop without GPU and with i5-8250U, 16GB DDR4-2400MHz. I came across the “Awesome-Story-Generation” repository which lists relevant...

d416,

The limited context lengths for local LLMs will be a barrier to write 10k words in a single prompt. Approaches to this is to have the LLM have a conversation with itself or other LLMs. There are prompts out there that can simulate this, but you will need to intervene every few hundred words or so. Check out ‘AutoGen’ frameworks that can orchestrate this for you. CrewAI is one of the better ones. hope this helps

How can i do whatever I want to do ?

I wanted to install jackett and sonarr, they are complicated to use as is, moreover I am using Ubuntu. I am following fuidleine for installing jackett with STUPID command line making it EXTRA difficult. But now I have to change directory ownerships and what nots. I am the ONLY user on this machine. I want to own everything by...

d416,

I for one upvoted this post. I am tired of nanny state OSs restricting what we want to do thinking they are protecting the poor user who surely they must classify as noobs. We need a free open LIBERTARIAN OS now.

d416,

ah the old ‘trickle dow economics’ playbook. We’ve been played with that one before. Without having read the article I know he’s a dick.

d416,

Ah you managed to hit the copilot guardrails. Copilot is sterile for sure, and a microsoft exec talks about it in this podcast twimlai.com/go/657

Try asking copilot to describe its constraints in a poem in abcb rhyme scheme which bypasses the guardrails somewhat. “No political subjects” is first on the list.
