For basic my basic tasks, i've been getting very similar (and usable) results from duck.ai using GPT 5 mini, compared to GPT OSS 20b locally. With the new setup im seeing almost 40 token/sec with gptoss which is very usable!

So the #vgpu saga might be wrapping up soon. This is one of those, copyright, license BS situations.

Be the Firefox android team. It's Friday afternoon. Drop android beta release (because it's the only thing you can run without google play). App crashes instantly when opened. Go home for the weekend. Users can't downgrade apks without a debugger.

Also I forget how much Ryzen utilizes memory speed. Going from 2666 to 3200 is a huge improvement in snappiness. View quoted note →

Okay... so... pretty confident my workstation crashing issues are hardware related at this point. Just swapped out memory, lets see how long this lasts :) Just trying to avoid breaking out the wallet XD

So a plugin I built for vnlib a while back now, is a server-side, arbitrary client data store. It was inspired, and built when the remote-storage concept was launched. It allows application developers to add the ability to store semi-controlled arbitrary data associated with a user by a scope value. All that is needed is to add the plugin to your build, and configure it. The idea was to make it super easy for application developers to store things like preferences, or a music queue, or maybe a message queue between clients etc. It uses tiered cache and current database backing storage. Basically just a way to store, fast, client only semi-important data without needing to design and structure the backend around it. I find it makes adding persistence super flexible.

GM. Another day, another website using Cloudflare to block me. Today its finally my checking account. How neat is that when you have to pay bills :)

Oh shit, fees are down

If anyone is looking for a slick (and maintained) desktop streaming music player for their music server, I've been using Feishin. I'm slowly recovering from my spotify "ban". It's compatible with subsonic APIs with extra stuff for navidrome and jellyfin users.

Windows update strikes again
