It is much easier to buy one “hefty” physical machine and run ProxMox with virtual machines for servers than it is to run multiple Raspberry Pis. After living that life for years, I’m a ProxMox shill now. Backups are important (read the other comments), and ProxMox makes backup/restore easy. Because eventually you will fuck a server up beyond repair, you will lose data, and you will feel terrible about it. Learn from my mistakes.

Oh no, you mean the big “smart” money investors that manage to crash the economy every decade or so and ruin every business they touch are gonna leave generative AI alone? Oh nooo. How will the science progress without Goldman Sachs’s guiding hand?

Good riddance.

Porn porn porn porn porn porn porn racism porn. Same as its always been. Maybe more porn now.

Because I don’t know why it is closed source. Is it a personal project? A private project? A sensitive project? I don’t see a moral imperative for any of those to be free and open to all users.

If I release something free of restrictions to the world as a gift, that is my prerogative. And a third party’s actions don’t affect my ability to do whatever I want with the original code, nor the users of their product’s ability to do what they want with my code. And the idea of “property” here is pretty abstract. What is it you own when you purchase software? Certainly not everything. Probably not nothing. But there is a wide swath in between in which reasonable people can disagree.

If you are an intellectual property abolitionist, I doubt there is much I can say to change your mind.

I’m not sure what you are referring to about ontologically bad. Has someone said this?

I’m going by the vibe of the comments of people here who are generally anti-MIT. That the very nature of allowing someone to use your code in a closed-source project without attribution is bad. Phrasing it as “hiding their copyright infringement”, for example, implies that it is copyright infringement per se regardless of the license or the spirit in which it was released.

Not all of us write code simply for monetary gain and some of us have philosophical differences on what you can and should own as far as the public commons goes. And not all of us view closed derivatives as a ontologically bad.

Looking at the documentation it looks like it relies on Mistral’s python tooling to work. I’m fairly dumb, so I don’t know if the tool suggestion coming from Mistral is from some kind of separate neural net or as some kind of special response you have to parse (or that their client parses for you?).

Mistral Instruct v0.3 added in function calling, but I don’t know if its method for implementation is the same/compatible. Also, it is fairly new and wasn’t released all that long ago. Hopefully we’ll get there soon. :)

Just because an idea is old, doesn’t mean its a bad idea. And we do have mechanisms for modifying the constitution. We just don’t do it often because it requires a lot of agreement.

I don’t think that Libby itself is. There’s DRM and while there is probably a way to strip it, I don’t think that is easy and/or publicly shared. But Overdrive, which is Libby’s predecessor, allows for DRM free MP3 downloads. But they’ve been trying to sunset Overdrive for a long time. The Windows desktop program needed to download the MP3 files is no longer linked on their site, for example (but is still downloadable if you know the exact link). I’m honestly not sure why it even still works unless it’s to comply with some ancient contract they have with a library somewhere.

Unironically the library. Then just use something like Audiobookshelf to organize your collection.

Crystalis for the NES has an absolute banger soundtrack. The game is also great. The overworld theme will stick in your head forever.
