Don’t the same brands also make the store (private label) brands?

I find 8th gen i5 and i7 laptops under 200 all over eBay. Hard to beat.

It’s more that my daily life tasks have no use for AI agents or llms. I have dabbled with running local llms and agents, but idk yet, just haven’t gotten enough out of it that it seems worth it.

This is how skynet gets everyone that isn’t polite to AI.

Same

I see a ton of i5-8th gen 2-in-1s with dead batteries, but under 100 on ebay

Just look at the processors in the Synology offerings, you didn’t need much to run a bunch of services.

I got my kid a used dell that was $90 on eBay and it’s running linux just fine with the 8th Gen i5. If you need more you can likely just spend 100 more. I have a hard time justification for new unless you have a need for specific hardware

I’m running an older Asus router they is listed on the OpenWrt site. Would it be the most affordable option to just install open wrt on this device and manually bring over my current configs?

Same, i have 64GB, but only to play with lmstudio.

Runs on Windows CE

Maybe your tastes have changed over the years. I recommend you sample a bunch lf different roast levels and see which one works best with your setup and yourself.

My personal experience is my parents like dark roast, but they also like the coffee I brew which is light roast. My though is my brew method is the real difference.

Best of luck on your adventure.

I run llms using a 780m you’ll be fine. I get pretty close to 10 tokens a second for larger 20B+ models.

Will do. 👍

I haven’t tried to play this game in a while, Im got my other maxis games from that time running on Linux, i guess i will give this one a spin.

Black and White

The work culture is bad in China, I would not want to work 997.

I picked up a pixel 8 pro to replace my 6 pro.

US is worse

They have folding phones that’s are smallish
