2 internal hdds

As I understand the PC case is some sort of small form factor and the motherboard has more SATA ports to plug in disks.

If that's the case then try to find old pc case in the dumpster or from a neighbour. It should have more space for disks.

Some PCs 15 years ago had incompatible layouts so be a little cautious but gratis is a fair price.

As far as I can see you could try to attach 1 ssd to SATA0 (it can dangle in the air) and 2 hard drives to SATA1 and SATA2 (They are capped to 300MB/s and should be attached to the case with screws)

There should be space somewhere to put the drives as I can see in the specification. You will probably need to remove the CD drive.

There is also a question if power supply has enough power sockets to attach to the disks. You could try to find eSATA -> SATA adapter to attach something to the last port.

You probably won't find the bigger case as motherboard isn't standard size.

I would probably try to upgrade to standard motherboard size but I would also calculate the cost of consumed electricity in a year vs cost of more efficient hardware.

Would Lemmy Benefit from Implementing Polls? ( slrpnk.net )

A popular way of dealing with discussions, and familiar to most people, I assume. As far as I see it, adding a poll system to Lemmy is a good way to enhance user engagement. I'm not really aware if this has been a topic before or not, tried looking it up but didn't see much juice on the topic, so thought I'd spark it up....

Are there any innovative platforms in the Fediverse?

I've explored a few platforms within the Fediverse, but most of them seem to be inspired by and mimic existing mainstream social media platforms like Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook. While this familiarity can be comforting, I can't help but wonder if there are any truly innovative and original platforms out there that offer a...

Tablet Calibration on Bazzite OS

Hey, I'm trying to calibrate my Wacom Cintiq Pro 32 on Bazzite OS, but I am running into issues. My problem is that my cursor is ~10px off from my pen tip, which makes drawing quite weird. Common sense would take you to KDE Plasma's settings app, but the "Drawing Tablet" Input Device setting does not feature a tablet calibration...

On wayland they use libinput

Link to docs:

You would need to find an gui app that communicates directly with libinput

I think that's just hardware limitation. My USB2.0 sticks get 10MB/s and USB 3.0 get around 20MB/s

For faster stuff get a SSD with USB adapter

I have read some headline that said that some of these models just measure age of a patient and a quality of the machine making photos.

Still AI misalignment is a real issue. I just don't remember which model was studied and had been found out that it was missaligned.

Did you partition the drive correctly? There is a possibility that you installed mint incorrectly.

Trying to pirate a physical book. Where do I get thinner printer paper?

I need to pirate this book thats over 1000 pages. I already have the pdf but I really want a physical copy and the book costs too much for me. Even if I have to buy a bunch of ink (the book has no pictures) and even if I wear out the printhead before the job is done, it's still going to be cheaper to do this. My printer has been...

If this is a textbook that you need to have in class. I would say go to the print shop and order couple of copies for you and your classmates (They also want cheaper textbooks). I think the biggest problem will be to have usable binding as loose or stapled paper won't cut it. A print shop will have the machines and expertise to do it relatively cheaply.

I saw once pirated textbook in class and it was done like that. I think half the class had a pirated copy.

This actually seems interesting. The training data will be archived in a blockchain. So tech bros can throw money for them at training costs. Artists could get some stake in the model.

They both are against free comercial use of the model as they want the money. So we will see.

There are many areas where this could help artists immensely as there are certain steps that could be automated like: auto shading or auto picture to vector conversion.

Just finished Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley This game is alright. Great visual style. Passable gameplay and nice music. Writing is quite simplistic but endearing with nostalgia. This is definitely a love letter to Moomin franchise. I loved to see Snufkin, Mini My and The Groke on screen with some cute cutscenes. I wouldn't recommend this game if you aren't already invested into Moomins. I enjoyed my time meeting beloved characters once again.

For AI/ML workloads the VRAM is king

As you are starting out something older with lots of VRAM would be better than something faster with less VRAM for the same price.

The 4060 ti is a good baseline to compare against as it has a 16GB variant

"Minimum" VRAM for ML is around 10GB the more the better, less VRAM could be usable but with sacrefices with speed and quality.

If you like that stuff in couple of months, you could sell the GPU that you would buy and swap it with 4090 super

For AMD support is confusing as there is no official support for rocm (for mid range GPUs) on linux but someone said that it works.

There is new ZLUDA that enables running CUDA workloads on ROCm

https://www.xda-developers.com/nvidia-cuda-amd-zluda/

I don't have enough info to reccomend AMD cards

!openstreetmap has couple of post about apps

I use street complete, every door, and vespucci depending on what I want to map

Data for open street map, open voice, open assistant, some translation issues, bug reports, and small bug fixes

So I would say couple things a month

In five years time, some CTO will review the mysterious outage or technical debt in their organisation.

They will unearth a mess of poorly written, poorly -documented, barely-functioning code their staff don't understand.

They will conclude that they did not actually save money by replacing human developers with LLMs.

A fellow had just been hired as the new CEO of a large high tech corporation. The CEO who was stepping down met with him privately and presented him with three numbered envelopes. "Open these if you run up against a problem you don't think you can solve," he said.

Well, things went along pretty smoothly, but six months later, sales took a downturn and he was really catching a lot of heat. About at his wit's end, he remembered the envelopes. He went to his drawer and took out the first envelope. The message read, "Blame your predecessor."

The new CEO called a press conference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the previous CEO. Satisfied with his comments, the press -- and Wall Street - responded positively, sales began to pick up and the problem was soon behind him.

About a year later, the company was again experiencing a slight dip in sales, combined with serious product problems. Having learned from his previous experience, the CEO quickly opened the second envelope. The message read, "Reorganize." This he did, and the company quickly rebounded.

After several consecutive profitable quarters, the company once again fell on difficult times. The CEO went to his office, closed the door and opened the third envelope.

The message said, "Prepare three envelopes."

VPN and Tor use on the lemmy verse, is it banned ?

Hi, I have noticed for three days now not being able to post comments from my Lemmy.world account while connected via Tor (I was left waiting for a spinning wheel )! I thought at first It might be a problem with LW servers but after three days, I concluded they are banning Tor and VPN users from posting, I Have found a user...

If I want to have mid-range GPU with compute on linux my only option is nvidia.

For VR it makes sense as lenses and displays are super fragile and need to be aligned to sub mm precision. But still the battery pack shoudn't use the proprietary connector for the battery.

But who will moderate the content? Who is to say to what is legal and where? In USA and in EU different pieces of information can be shown. CSAM needs to be removed. Main lemmy devs removed only active mod on !anime!anime due differences in censorship.

Blockchain is immutable so you can't remove the content.

The same people can't moderate the content if content is centralised, there would need be an overlord that sets the rules.

What specific edgecase do you have in mind. The fediverse is coping data and is quite resiliant against data loss.

It is not gone. You still have an old copy of the post on your instance.

Replaying, posting and making new content is pointless there but the old stuff still stands and it can be read.
