maggoats,

Quelle connerie. On peut bien y faire quelque chose, non? Ça commence à faire cruel, là.

maggoats,

Great post. Full of useful tips I always need to remind myself of.

maggoats,

I wonder this too, but I’m coming to believe that as long as investors are throwing money at housing and people need it, it might not burst. With enough wealth concentration, maybe it just all gets progressively bought up and rented out at insane prices, with growth coming from speculation among massive institutional investors.

But I haven’t really thought of this deeply or looked into whether it’s sound.

maggoats,

Unfortunately not, though I forgot about SIMD! It doesn’t seem to support arbitrary-sized matrices or arrays out of the box, though I guess I could index the vector type myself. Still, it doesn’t offer the operations I’d like, as far as I can tell.

Thanks though!

maggoats,

Unfortunately I don’t believe NumPy has any built in accelerations (other than being a C library which is fast already), though I don’t really know the ins and outs. There are Python libraries that use the NumPy API or otherwise do some stuff to accelerate it on e.g. CUDA, but the Numpy.NET library as far as I know uses its own embedded Python + numpy, so as far as I can tell that wouldn’t be an option.

maggoats,

The closest thing I’ve been able to find so far (which seems to have been under slow development by 1-2 contributors for the past couple years) is github.com/MPSQUARK/BAVCL which is based on ILGPU. I’ll probably be keeping an eye on it though.

Does Linux even work properly on Dell XPS laptops?

the more i am delving into things, the dell documentations are saying that the two really aren’t compatible except for like an outdated version of ubuntu… I never even thought about this, but looking back in time, I’ve tried many distros and the all have had some sort of internal issues that I couldn’t figure out and had...

maggoats,

Got an XPS 13 9350, works fine, bluetooth and all, though I upgraded Ubuntu and the kernel and the integrated webcam hasn’t worked since, which I still don’t really understand.

Need help on installing NVIDIA drivers for old GPU.

I have a GeForce 210 GPU on an EndeavourOS computer. I use Noveau drivers, but some apps like Blender have a broken user interface, and KDE acts weird sometimes. I tried installing the proprietary NVIDIA drivers following the Archlinux wiki, but I did not have any display output at all. I also tried running the NVIDIA driver...

maggoats,

This may not be relevant since I have a different gpu and am on Ubuntu, but when I installed proprietary drivers I didn’t have display either because I was using a version of the driver that was too recent (whether due to dropped compatibility or a bug I don’t know). An older one might work!

maggoats,

Why can’t the government just build it as a public utility?

maggoats,

Indeed. People almost invariably conflate capitalism with free markets, whereas those relatively independent properties.

maggoats,

That’s actually not true, right? iea.org/…/global-co2-emissions-from-transport-by-…

In 2019 there are 6.08 Gt from road vehicles compared to the 0.87 Gt from shipping. That’s just overwhelming.

maggoats,

I had to look this up because I thought it was fake.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

maggoats,

Nah, I think they're just being mass-created. No one's actually spamming anything so far. You can see so on this directory of instances: https://the-federation.info/platform/73

If you scroll around you'll find some that have like 10k or 20k users and 11 posts at most.

maggoats,

Huh! That's possible, but that doesn't sound right to me. I think for example that if I post a comment on a lemmy.ml thread, my client sends a request to A, lemmy.world, and then A sends a request to B, lemmy.ml, and then third-parties C would see the result of my like if they individually request content from B.

I don't think cross-instance interaction is shared with every federated instance at once. They each need to go "find out" on their own.

maggoats,

Oh, I see what you mean! That's right... Instances update their listeners, they're not polled.

So then what would cause the slowdown in updating federated instances? The servers themselves are still responding. I guess there must be a queue of updates to other instances that's not getting emptied fast enough? That would explain a comment of mine to a separate instance showing up here but not there. I'm not familiar with the inner workings.

Thanks for the discussion by the way!
