Do you use vim as your default text editor?

I used Vim for a few years before switching to Neovim. So, yes?

If you do not, have you ever been in a situation you could do nothing but use vim?

This question is not relevant to me, based on the prior question and answer, as I use it as my default text editor. But allow me to give a somewhat relevant answer. When I installed my operating system from scratch, I had to do text edits without Vim or Neovim being installed. It felt like I could do nothing without Vim, but managed it somehow. I had to use Nano!

I use virtual menus in RetroArch on my Steam Deck. Whenever I touch the left trackpad, the emulated game pauses and a menu shows up. On selection the game continues and runs the shortcut associated with the action in RetroArch. And there are more functionalities I am using. It really needed exact timing and fine tuning. Unfortunately I never uploaded it, because it depends on a specific configuration of some shortcuts that has to be done in RetroArch.

And that’s my biggest problem. There is no documentation or README we can write for the downloadable user configuration. Even a hyperlink would be good, so I could provide a webpage or PDF / Textfile for download.

I use uBlock Origin + uMatrix at the same time. The default blocked stuff from both works for me fine. uMatrix has great flexibility to allow certain stuff. And uBlock has ability to block additional stuff with the element picker, either temporary or permanent. Both tools have additional settings that the other might not cover. So what I usually do:

• let uBlock block ads and some other stuff
• block some stuff manually with uBlock
• let uMatrix block additional stuff but allow me to finetune easily
• allow certain domains or categories in uMatrix one by one for certain sites when I need to

Told you so…

I wasn’t criticizing at all. Just tried to define what I mean by creator and user. You was takling about “how do you think LLMs are trained” and I told you that the user was probably not thinking of who trains the LLMs, or fine tune them as you said. And yes, fine tuning the open weight falls into creation process, as they are rebuild. That is not the same as an end user who downloads the final usable product. And yes, it makes sense.

Hmm, looks like it can be slower on write, but faster on read depending on the CPU and drive probably. Games mostly read files, so this might even improve performance.

If you make any changes to the game files in Steam, including compression, then Steam will update the files and redownload them. And for online games, you could even get a ban if an Anticheat system thinks you try to cheat because the files are tempered (changed).

However there is a transparent compression available on filesystem level. Meaning files are saved compressed and look and work like uncompressed files. Something similar what Windows has I believe. EXT4 does not have transparent compression, but I often read Btrfs and ZFS do. I have no experience with that, so cannot assist. But at least you should be able to search for this now. Have in mind that compressed filesystem would be slower.

That still falls into the category “creator” to me, if you need to rebuild. I was making the distinction to an end user, comparable to applications that you download and use and configure. Instead of rebuilding the source code with your modifications.

Do I misunderstand here something? Or is this a communication issue caused by different interpretations?

For the longest time I was avoiding the npm. But for certain stuff I needed it to set up my Neovim environment, that depends on npm. And reading headlings and articles like these makes me feel very uncomfortable. Not sure if I should re-evaluate my setup.

To be fair, the rule doesn’t prohibit talking about goblins entirely. It just has to be absolutely necessary and relevant to the user query.

I think he (or she) is talking about the user of the LLM, not the creator.

I always thought it’s just ghosts or maybe aliens. Never thought that demons are the real ones.

I think the headline was meaning its just a paraphrase. But I can see why Daniel got bugged by this, as it was not clear.

I have the box myself. You are right, it says designed by VALVE and assembled in China. I didn’t think of checking the box, only looked at the controller and on the controller itself it does not say where it is made in for some reason.

Well there it is then.

That’s the puck that is made in China. It’s a separate product with a different product ID. So that is not a proof the Controller is made in China, especially because VALVE has a facility to build the first Steam Controller in US. Most likely smaller parts are made in China, but the Controller might be assembled in US, in VALVEs own full automated facility. I’m guessing here, but we have no proof right now.

I would assume the controller is made in US. The original Steam Controller 1 from 2016 is build by Valve, they have their own facility. I don’t know if this applies to the new Controller too, but here is the video in question: https://youtu.be/uCgnWqoP4MM

When we first started designing hardware at Valve, we decided we wanted to try and do the manufacturing as well. To achieve our goal of a flexible controller, we felt it was important to have a similar amount of flexibility in our manufacturing process, and that meant looking into automated assembly lines. It turns out that most consumer hardware of this kind still has humans involved in stages throughout manufacturing, but we kind of went overboard, and built one of the largest fully automated assembly lines in the US. Our film crew recently put together a video of that assembly line, showcasing exactly why robots are awesome.

Here’s that showcase, where you can watch controllers being built entirely by robots. We aren’t crazy though, so humans are still on hand to keep the robots from becoming sentient.

I probably have to wait for my client (for noobs) to support MTP. So until then I play around with what I have. I’m not even that deep into Ai anyway and mostly play around and only use it occasionally to help. But thanks for the suggestion.

I’m still experimenting, and just started doing some custom settings. What makes these “bigger” models more usable is, lowering the context to free up VRAM a bit and in exchange load more of the core model into VRAM. In example I’m trying this with a 31B unsloth gemma 4 model, but Q3_K_M and get 4 tok/sec. It’s slow and doesn’t have huge context, but for the occasional questions this is tolerable, with respect to the hardware I have.

My main models are the previously mentioned 35B-A3B and 26B-A4B (where only a few billion parameters are active from a bigger pool) anyway, as they are pretty fast with 17 to 50 tok/sec. While the quality is acceptable and not really much different from the “bigger” models I can run.

I’m on the low end with 8gb VRAM, that can partially run on GPU and system RAM. That makes it halway usable. I’m not an Ai guy at all and use it mostly to play around. Occasionally it can be used here and there for simple stuff like as you suggest for brainstorming, to extract text from images or translate them. And I also used it to help with programming here and there asking questions when being offline for a month, help refactor program code and functions just to see what can be done.

For anyone wanting to use it as a main tool and replacement of ChatGPT and the likes, they clearly need stronger hardware. I wish I had 16gb… this is extremely limiting. But token speed is at least often 17 tokens per second and sometimes over 50. That’s about what I can do.
