For folks into , I'd suggest checking out continue.dev and their integrations with ollama and LM Studio.

I found that the best models have been WizardCoder 7B and OpenHermes 2.5. Make sure to offload execution to another box or limit the CPU threads for inference so you can keep some for your window manager.

The App Store is a system of control over both developers and users, and selective limitations in Safari are part of how Apple enforces that system of control. If this wasn't clear to you before, it should be now

@techsinger TBH I wouldn't be surprised if there was a faster option out there. I found that for text generation it was way slower than LM Studio for example. But that doesn't support multi modal stuff.

@techsinger I will say that out of the box it fully ate my system resources to do so and locked my music player and browser. :P I may experiment with giving it fewer CPU cores so I can have space for processing UI stuff

@techsinger It's not super fast but it's fast enough. I think the main slowdown is loading the model into memory, and from there generation was about one word per second for me. I'm not sure which llava it is specifically, but it's probably a 7b one.

Docs on it are here: ollama.com/library/llava

@cblgh From what I understand it just means text+images. You can have it take an image as input and then ask it questions about what's in it. There might be other modes of operation too? I really want to make one that interacts with my shell to load/edit files.

Tried getting a fully local multi-modal model to tell me what it seems in my logo and it's honestly mind blowing that it can identify anything at all. i used `ollama run llava` on my steam deck. Might be a useful tool to integrate with caption generators or for folks wanting to get a description without needing an online service

I worry that big data / analytics types don't care enough about how monitoring metrics to influence people destroys diversity and robustness.

@tobiash Yeah! I started inviting coworkers into it for online hangs and also been replacing my jitsi calls with spatial ones.

Sadly self hosting it requires a bunch of cloud junk and even then it'd lack content to populate worlds with. 😭

I just got an amber alert with a bit.ly link that redirected to twitter and I would just really love it for governments to not base public information systems on the flimsiest chain of adversarial platforms imaginable

nooooo. Mozilla hubs is getting canned 💀💀💀

@mauve@staticpub.mauve.moe In case anyone is interested, I've made a PR that adds an initial attempt using the `url` field with `rel=alternate`.

@nasser I need to book a vacation within the next couple months, that's for sure. :P

Humans are such wimps. Look at me I need the air around me to jiggle at a certain speed or I will literally die. Oh now now the air molecules are jiggling too fast. I need them to jiggle less

@silverpill These are great. I didn't know I could place anything but a string under URL. Setting it as alternate with the AP mime type seems like a good solution

Hey fedifolks! I was hoping to get some bikeshedding feedback on a new we're working on at .

tl;dr we want objects to link to URLs for alternate ways to load them. Right now I'm debating between putting them in `alsoKnownAs` or into the `url` field. e.g. `"alsoKnownAs": ["ipns://staticpub.mauve.moe"]` for @mauve@staticpub.mauve.moe

I worry that field is already in use and that it could cause trouble. Would a new field name be better? Maybe `alternateURL`?

That feel when I need to keep pushing but my toothpaste tube is already empty.
