Overcoming one more barrier to entry.

Windows is gone

Sounds like secureboot shinanigans. Windows just needs to be on its own total drive.

I’d just use Kubuntu. Had to fix CachyOS twice this year.

There’s also Colibri which runs large models off of a SSD at a much slower speed than corporations. The large high-quality stuff has been gated by big-tech with gigantic GPUs. Colibri, if nothing else than a proof of concept, shows that high quality stuff can run on anything with a hit to speed.

I’m glad I got local runners set up already. Beyond that, it should be painless to migrate my projects over, when I get to it that is.

I have a Bluetooth dongle headset-mic. Probably for the same buffer reason, it constantly breaks audio when I have multiple audios in/outs running.

The only consistent fix is switching to another audio driver and playing a video on YouTube while I switch it back.

Reddit sold Google the rights to train AI models using their (our?) data a year ago. Any trained model will recognize the data it was trained on and rank it highly.
