If your instance isn't part of @FediPact please urge your admins to join or move to another instance who is.

And if you want proof, ask the general public what Jabber/XMPP was, and then ask what Google how they killed it.

EDIT: *Please* send support to the creator of the FediPact, @vantablack as she is homeless. This is possible because of them.

EDIT #2: Some peppe are saying it doesn't happen anymore, but since it *only* happened to competitors to Facebook and only *after* people noticed, I don't think it was a "bug" that only impacted FOSS replacements, but a feature for Facebook removed. Don't give these Zuckers gaslight and think they remain innocent.

@hobs I think so, personally. It already makes use of IndexedDB for storing all the data so I'm not sure what is even taking up so much memory. Sadly I don't have the time to take heap snapshots

I wish Element didn't load such a huge amount of data in memory and instead fetched it from indexed db on demand. It's bonkers how much is loaded as your volume grows.

@fredy_pferdi Yeah the issue is my Matrix client ends up eating way too much RAM and then I start eating swap. Might also have a memory leak somewhere in my OS wasting RAM after going out of sleep mode

@fredy_pferdi It hooks into your entire OS. I use https://github.com/ideasman42/nerd-dictation with a custom script to make it easier to codehttps://github.com/RangerMauve/mauve-dictation

Since my OS is a steam OS derivative I needed to be fancy and install it in userspace: https://github.com/atcq/steam-dictation

Then I have a global shortcut to toggle it on/off

@fredy_pferdi Cool TY, I found the HSA_OVERRIDE online and it ended up working great in my ubuntu container. 😁 Wish I had this for last night's demo! Also I don't have nearly enough RAM on this thing with 16 GB. TT_TT

@fredy_pferdi Oh that's great to know TY. I'll look into it. Is this going to use Vulkan for the GPU acceleration? I wasn't sure what my options would be since Ollama seems to only support Cuda and Metal

@fredy_pferdi Yeah exactly! I'm running #ChimeraOS on it in desktop mode. Lately been thinking of just installing Manjaro on it instead since the steam bits are a bit janky for me.

Me, an idiot: “So, kids, by setting the thermostat a little lower and eating less meat, we’re doing our part to make the world more sustainable”

VCs, very smart: “We just raised $100 billion dollars from the sovereign wealth funds of three petrostates to build the world’s largest AI supercomputer. It uses as much power and water as Guatemala and the primary use case is for management consultants to autogenerate powerpoints for justifying mass layoffs.”
