As others are saying, OSMC might work. Most difficult part is making it so that the TV turns on when you turn on the computer since ARC isn’t a thing for most computers.

I ended up giving up on OSMC and bought an Apple TV since nothing else got the “wife approval” factor. It’s better than Google getting my data, has a Plex client, and let’s me stream my Steam library.

No need to worry, those security patches would be millennia ahead of any contemporaneous trojans.

Alliteration, Rhythm, Rhyme, and I like properly made tea.

I have an RX6800XT and I use KoboldCPP to run models I download off of Huggingface.

I’m not sure how many tokens per second it generates, probably about 10?

If you want to try it yourself here’s a link to the Github page: https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp

I don’t know what your - and your kid’s - situation is, but I worry pushing Linux onto someone would be counterproductive to getting them to like it.

I only use it because I genuinely like and appreciate it. I’d probably start by getting him interested in it. If he likes it enough then he’ll try and learn more by himself.

I recently got an LLM running locally on an AMD GPU. This was only possible on Linux. Depending on your son, something like that could be a cool way to get him interested.

Yeah. The icing is made with powdered sugar and tomato juice.

Honestly, it’s wild to me that I probably ate something that most people will go their whole lives without knowing it’s existence.

How do you mean teach?

Just getting them to use it or teaching them terminal commands?

Not yet, although not for lack of curiosity. I was busy at the time and then forgot about this.

Although, in case you’re curious, tomato cake is a thing I’ve made and it’s definitely different. I didn’t like it at first but I also ended up eating the whole thing over a couple days.

Thanks for reminding me of this curiosity though!

I always wondered why DMCA rubbed me the wrong way but couldn’t put it into words. This helped me pin down why. Thanks!

Wow, I was unaware of this. Thanks!

If I could have Pixel software on Sony hardware, I’d be golden.

How about MS DOS though? That was also pretty good for its time.

I assume some will say they don’t want it to. I hope it does so more people are no longer giving money to giant social media companies, or being tracked by them.

HOA can pound sand when it comes to native wildflowers, at least where I live.

Honestly, podcasts on YouTube are better if you have sponsorblock

What distro/software are you using?

It’s a good book. The concepts are amazing if you’re into sci fi.

There were a couple places where I struggled to keep going, but the book’s promise of more depth always kept me engaged enough to keep going.

Gravity is pretty weak, all things considered. A tiny magnet can easily overcome the entire Earth’s gravity on a small metal object.
