    Farmer donates land for a park, city sells it for data center development

    No, the guy who "wrote" the article at Tom's Hardware did.

    The Small-Business Owners Managing Whole Armies of A.I. Employees what could go wrong?

    There's a reason I keep bringing up the Butlerian Jihad, and eliminating entry-level jobs across entire industries is a huge part of it.

    My vllm workflow

    Makes sense. I followed your ROCm link, installed docker, and failed partway through AMD's instructions because something (amdgpu-dkms, I think) wouldn't compile properly. Something about linux-headers-7.0.0.14-generic, when what my kernel was, was .22. I didn't want to spend time figuring...

    My vllm workflow

    Good Lord, this is crazy. I installed Ubuntu 26.04, because that's what Ubuntu.com offered. AMD's instructions you linked expect 22.04 or 24.04, so I tried the latter, silly me. I got to the "installing kernel drivers" part of the ROCm quickstart, and it sat and spun for a while and started...

    My vllm workflow

    I may have to switch to something other than arch...AMD's instructions assume Ubuntu and apt, and the commands don't translate directly to using pacman, and I don't to spend a ton of time figuring that out.

    Sorry, stuff came up this weekend. I've got an RX 6800 (non-XT).

    Easy questions that AI messes up

    Just ran into this thread, tried doing it with Gemini for 2026 and a biweekly pay period with last pay date 5/29, and it says May and October. Looks like Google's gotten smarter about this, even includes it's reasoning, and as a minor bonus, ran the calculation for the entire year, not just the...

    My vllm workflow

    This looks nearly exactly like what I'm looking for except not powershell. Also, as OP said, it's not hijacking because this is literally what I was asking about on the other thread. If you've got a 9070XT you probably ought to at least look into the just-released 12B model, because more Bs...

    How AI will fail

    I just want to point out that I absolutely despise this "installation method" and want to reach through my monitor to slap people who use it: curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh

    How AI will fail

    Right now I'm mainly interested in code generation, to see if it'll be helpful to me at work and/or at home. I've got a Minisforum AI X1 with a Ryzen 255 and 32GBs of RAM and I think it's running Arch, but I'm not doing enough on that system I can't wipe it if need be. I'm also fine with...

    How AI will fail

    Yeah, not sure why I wrote Claude. My key question is, i'll be like using AI in the browser or VS Code or whatever, but on my own hardware, so not making me buy tokens.

    RTX 5090 FE Molten 12VHPWR

    Small nitpick: this means you can find out one or the other but not both. I think you meant they're orthogonal, which effectively means "unrelated" or "independent". Wikipedia says "When performing statistical analysis, independent variables that affect a particular dependent variable are...
