don't use ladybird browser lol
  • FWIW they didn't merge it, they closed the PR without merging, link to line that still exists on master.

    The recent comments are from the announcement of the ladybird browser project which is forked from some browser code from Serenity OS, I guess people are digging into who wrote the code.

    Not arguing that the new comments on the PR are good/bad or anything, just a bit of context.

  • Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising
  • Been 100% linux for like 6-9 months now, these stories make me thankful for finally making the switch.

    I've tried to make the switch 3-4 times in the past and was stopped by 2 main things:

    • Drivers / Laptops were tough to get set up
    • Gaming

    The experience was so much better this time and I really have no regrets. I don't imagine I'll ever run Windows again outside of a VM

  • Trying to set up LLama but i get a error saying CUDA has no path set
  • Nah. There are some nvidia issues with wayland (that are starting to get cleared up), and nvidia's drivers not being open-source rubs some people the wrong way, but getting nvidia and cuda up and running on linux is pretty easy/reliable in my experience.

    WSL is a bit different but there are steps to get that up and running too.

  • Trying to set up LLama but i get a error saying CUDA has no path set
  • Agree with others, this guide is a bit more work than you probably need. I don't really run windows much anymore but I did have an easier time with WSL like the other poster mentioned.

    And just to check, are you planning on fine-tuning a model? If so then the whole anaconda / miniconda, pytorch, etc... path makes sense.

    But if you're not fine-tuning and you just want to run a model locally, I'd suggest ollama. If you want a UI on top of it, open-webui is great.

  • Should I get a firewall appliance?
  • Hopefully you’re only forwarding the minimal set of network ports and not all ports/traffic? If so then you’re good, like someone else said if you’ve got a router and it’s forwarding selected traffic then no need for anything else

  • Best Recruitment Agency for Dev Work w/ Chronic Pain?
  • Tons of remote jobs out there, probably a higher percentage for startup jobs. Most remote places will have people in different time zones and some sort of core hours they expect people to be in, but having some discussion you’ll probably be able to find one that’s accommodating.

    One good site to start looking:

    https://wellfound.com/remote

    Good luck

  • What is the best way to reinstall Windows after a MoBo/CPU upgrade while maximizing app/file/configuration retention?
  • Yeah, I’d definitely try just booting windows as is. Windows should detect change in hardware and simply pick the right drivers for the new system / hardware. If you go into device manager you can enable “show all devices”which will show the old hardware, you can remove those devices if you want but even that isn’t necessary/required

  • Password must match the following
  • Bets on what percentage of users on that site have that exact regex string as their password? 10%?

    Comedy answer: this is one of those sites that doesn't let 2 people use the same password so it's only 1 person

  • It just feels wrong
  • Synology nas are nice. I will say there’s definitely a nice UI there and they generally work well. But there is a good bit of lock-in and there are some really reasonable roll-your-own hardware and software options these days.

    If you want something that just works, doesn’t need to be super configurable and is easiest to set up and manage, get a synology. If you don’t mind putting in some work or if you need to really tweak some stuff, roll your own
