I've experienced the same. Are you saying you're using different context sizes with parallel invocations or just that it's possible to have longer contexts? I've been setting my config to ensure I don't blow out context server side but have not tried to manage it client side.

Its comprehensive. It is not complex. They just show all of the typical ways one would want to deploy.

um, it says if you have the libs and configured compiler, you can build it.

there's also nothing stopping you from doing static builds of whatever application you want to include in your OS.

For those that don't want to jump to the twitter feed, we should be expecting a follow-up as there should be a push addressing the data loss and allowing changes to attempt speed enhancements without data loss.

Good, wholesome, internet collaboration right here.....

Good to know. I haven't decided if I'd prefer going vanilla Ubuntu. I'm going to give Pop some more time yet. I can see benefits; I'm just not sure they're for me.

I literally just got my system dropped by UPS yesterday. What do you suggest I do? Wait a bit or try bricking my system now?

Side note: PopOS wasn't ready for release. I had lots of problems getting the initial account created and on corporate wifi (PEAP).
