I wasn't really expecting much from these local open weight models neither when it comes to speed or "intelligence", but my preconceptions were quickly put ashame when I got ollama up and running and pulled my first model. I get a consistent 117-128 t/s with Gemma4:26b-a4b without any tuning (just the default settings), which was much faster than I had expected. Can't wait to dive deeper into this, especially with Qwen3.6 models.

Does anyone's have experience adding a 2nd Nvidia GPU of the same generation but different (slower) model in the same system? Will it give a major boost with larger models, or will the slower card just be a bottleneck? I have an unused RTX 5060 Ti 16GB that I'm considering to install alongside the RTX 5080, but it would necessitate removing some other hardware, so I haven't bothered yet.

And in this analogy you need to spend a lot more when buying a car, no matter if it's a new or 2nd hand one, following the price inflation caused by cheap Ubers. So in essence, my question is how much have those cheap Uber rides then cost you in reality, when factoring in the directly related price increases for the things you need and buy? Is it a net positive or negative at the end of the day for anyone other than the very few at the very top of the system?

How does that figure look if you count in the current unprecedented LLM/AI-driven price inflation on both hardware, services and software? I don't believe we're exactly in the "$5 airport uber" era if you count that into your total.

The audio wasn't the best, but hey, you could make your own dubplates, and it did so in stereo!

If Capture One still is like this, I wouldn't really be surprised if there's truth to the other comment here claiming that their current owners are trying to offload them.

DENIC's status page currently says "Frankfurt am Main, 5 May 2026 – DENIC eG is currently experiencing a disruption in its DNS service for .de domains. As a result, all DNSSEC-signed .de domains are currently affected in their reachability. The root cause of the disruption has not yet been fully identified. DENIC’s technical teams are working intensively on analysis and on restoring stable operations as quickly as possible.

I mean, it can't be that hard to imagine them, with their never-before-seen fortunes, extensive real estate portfolios and their extravagant lifestyles, in the roles of modern day Pablo Escobars and the like. Addiction is extremely profitable.

In many ways it looked quite pleasant and fresh compared to the dark and colourful palettes of CDE-based Solaris.

Anyway, I hope the author can be a bit more specific about what actually has happened to those unlucky enough to have received these malicious updates. And perhaps a tool to e.g. do a checksum of all Notepad++ files, and compare them to the ones of a verified clean install of the user's installed version, would be a start? Though I would assume these malicious updates would be clever enough to rather have dropped and executed additional files, rather than doing something with the Notepad++ binaries themselves.

And I agree with another comment here. With all those spelling mistakes that notification kind of reads like it could have been written by a state-sponsored actor. Not to be (too) paranoid here, but can we be sure that this is the actual author, and that the new version isn't the malicious one?

But when these ideas can be formed, and words and instructions can be made, communicated and improved upon continuously in an autonomous manner, this (assumably) dry-run can't be far away from things escalating rather quickly?

I believe many Norwegians have received parking tickets when visiting Sweden because if this difference. I wasn't aware of this myself until recently.
