I don't know how old the last version of kobold you used was or what it looked like. The newest verion has a couple different web UI themes to pick from in settings, the basic one has more buttons for easier editing, the corpo one is pretty sleek for phones and tablets. They finally have a terminal mode if you are running on headless servers.
I love this answer! What a wonderful context for a generative model to bring people together and add positivity to daily life. Thank you very much for sharing.
Not the person you asked but I used kobold.cpp to generate images with SD models. it works as a okay introduction to image gen. Their wikihas everything you need to get it working
The most useful thing my LLM has done is help me with hobbyist computer coding projects and to ask advanced stem questions. I try to use my llm to parse code that im unfamiliar with and to understand how the functions translate to actual things happening. I give it an example of functioning code and ask it to adapt the logic a certain way to see how it goes about it. I have to parse a large very old legacy codebase written in many parts by different people of different skill so just being able to understand what block does what is a big win some days. Even if its solutions aren't copy/paste ready I usually learn quite a lot just seeing what insights it can gleam from the problem. Actually I prefer when I have to clean it up because it feels like I still did something to refine and sculpt the logic in a way the llm cant.
I don't want to be a stereotypical 'vibe coder' who copies and paste without being able to bug fix or understand the code their putting in. So I ask plenty of questions and read through its reasoning for thousands of words to understand the thought processes that lead to functioning changes. I try my best to understand the code and clean it up. It is nice to have a second brain help with initial boiler plating and piecing together general flow of logic.
I treat it like a teacher and an editor. But its got limits like any tool and needs a sweet spot of context, example, and circumstance for it to work out okay,
You are going to need to be willing to learn how computer program services send text messages to eachother over open ports, how to call on a API in a programming script, and slowly piece together how to work with ollamas external API calling tool functions. Heres the documentation
Essentially you need to
learn how ollama external API works. How to send it text data using a basic program in python on an open port and recieve data back to put into a text file.
learn how to make that python program pull weather and time data from openweather
learn how to feed that weather and time data into ollama on an open port as part of a tool calling function.
A tool call is a fancy system prompt that tells the model how to interface with the data in a well defined paratamized way. you say a keyword like get weather, it sends a request to your python program to get data from openweather and sends it back in way the llm is instructed to process.
Unless you are already a programmer who works with sending and recieving data over the internet to be processed, this is a non-trivial task that requires a lot of experimentation and getting your hands dirty with ports and coding languages. Im currently getting ready to delve into this myself so I know its all can feel overwhelming. Hope this helps.
This meme was originally made for the !netsphere@sopuli.xyz community in an attempt to give a super niche manga artist fan place a little bit of engagement, I crossposted it here as an afterthought didn't expect go be brigaded so hard by armchair memologist over the objective definition and location of the funny.
You're absolutely correct that you need to have read the Blame! manga to get the reference on this one to really enjoy, even if you did its not that deep. Not too much thought went into it I was high as shit just pasting icons with the 'linux chad big energy beam, windows/microsoft wojak bad guys its fired at'. Im personally okay with not every one of my memes being super accessible or community bangers I had fun making this and putting the template together. If you get the humor or like the template great. If you don't, oh well downvote say 'where funny' and move on with your life cause im not wasting my time explaining what a graviational beam emitter is to snobs who don't care in the first place.
Try to start curating your block list. Whenever you see a post or a community that rubs you the wrong way/you aren't interested in block it. Try to identify key words that help you blacklist the stuff you dont want to see.
The overwhelming Lemmy biases and echo chamber ideologies can be a little grating for sure. The longer your here the better curated your feed and the more you will find/contribute to nonpolitical communities which drastically improve the experience.
What?? Nooo of course not. I mean who would even have things to awaken in the first place, that would be crazy am I right? Not you or me thats for sure. Anyways all im saying is that whatever happens between you and your local kobold stays between you two. Everyone is welcome to come now and join LocalLLaMA today!
Ooops, looks like someone acidentally dropped all these unrelated pictures under my comment just now. Oh well, better leave them all here in case they come back for them.
To charge your 48v ebike battery you will probably be looking at a proper 48v solar charge controller from victron then. They are expensive but worth it. dont want to fry your battery with no-name brand junk pwm advertising as mppt. , Though you can get away with the cheaper 48v 100/20 or 100/10s versions if you want to save some cash. a single 12v solar panel wont cut it though you need a couple 200w or 400w foldups chained to add voltage up to around 48v to charge a big battery effectively.
If money isnt a big issue and you want something truly beefy for a solar system I would recommend something like this then. Your solution is essentially a usbc-pd car charger without the ability to remove from a cigarette plug. You would achieve the same affect wiring up a female cigarette car plug and buying a regular pd car charger with the bonus of being able to swap the outlet out for other 12v car plugs as needed.
If you want an integrated charger thats fine though at the end of the day theyre all just fancy variable dc to dc converters that take in 12-24v and pop out the usbc-pd voltage ranges as rated. just wanted to give you some options.
Im a electical engineer and made my own 200w solar system. I feel your pain had to mcguyver some stuff to run off usbcpd. LMK if you want to talk shop. Related guide I wrote explaining USBC-pd and dc-to-dc on lemmy
Okay I think the term 'foot-gun' is supposed to evoke the image of someone loading a gun and pointing it at their own foot. I can't help trying to picture a gun thats operated by a foot. Like a mech suit with a robot leg that also fires massive tank shattering shells when you do a roundhouse kick as a human operator. Or a veteran prosthetic leg that's also a rifle when you kick it the right way.
The brain rot seeps just a little bit more every time I see the term 'foot-gun' please help.
Been there done that. Got some good gigs as a mildew-man but eventually the mycelium grafting into my neurons was starting to cause motor function issues so I had to give that life up. Good times though it felt like microdosing on cube shrooms 24/7 overall I'd do it all again if I had the chance.
One of my more iconic acting roles you might recognize :
Welcome! Thats really cool to hear that the post inspired you to get an LLM going on the laptop. What size Gemma 3 are you able to run like a 8b?
