It can be–just put it on a pizza

How long did you spend choosing how to spell hi

Found the flatpak hater

If you do set up a RAG store, please post the tech stack you use as I’m in a similar situation. The inbuilt document store management in ollama+openwebui is a bit clunky.

I’d be interested to see how it goes. I’ve deployed Ollama plus Open WebUI on a few hosts and small models like Llama3.2 run adequately (at least as fast as I can read) on even an old i5-8500T with no GPU. Oracle Cloud free tier might work OK.

Running an LLM can certainly be an on-demand service. Apart from training, which I don’t think we are discussing, GPU compute is only used while responding to prompts.

Love these posts. Plus every month you get to see the flatpak haters try to convince us we are using the wrong technology.

I’ve used it productively this week by…

• Summarising and finding relevant parts of Microsoft Teams meetings.
• Finding relevant parts of the labyrinthine policies I have to comply with.
• Quickly finding out what’s going on with corporate events in the market.
• Generating SQL code instead of starting a blank query from scratch (I can never remember the exact way to declare various structures)
• At home, feeding private documents into Ollama for insight and producing compliance reports.
• Instructions for stepping through flashing some temperature sensors.

This is so exciting! Go little mouse, you can do it

TBH kinda relaxing

My neighbour’s cat was also a Loki, very chill for a trickster god, and sadly passed away a few weeks ago. Glad yours is enjoying the race. We’re considering getting a cat, might give it the same name, just spelled Lowkey.

You’re right, and New Zealand is our nicer, saner neighbour (Canada of the southern hemisphere)

They went one better, nobody cared about being fat.

I thought it was once every other pig, thanks for the info!

Built a booby-trap device to cover porch pirates in glitter. Oh no, such a disgrace.

Just post it on Ginstagram

Ah, the old game of cat and mouse

Turkey control rods

Might be the insanity is the part about Canadians joining in?
