Could you elaborate on your experience with local models on your card? I've been thinking of upgrading to 9070 XT, and was thinking the 16GB would be okay-ish to at least run something usable locally, no?

What issues did you have? I used Dino and Conversations for six months or so a year ago, and enjoyed the experience. Our conversations were all OMEMO encrypted.

I play Overwatch and CS:GO and in competitive matches it is the norm to use in-game voice, if you don't - you'll get flamed about it.

Casual game modes - that's different.

Sysadmin tool suggests installing itself with sh & curl combo? This makes me suspicious of the tool itself.

Mine is waiting for ElasticSearch reindex after changing one number to see actual difference in fuzzy-matched search results. 7 minutes is a long time when you need to do it multiple times a day. (While I am typing this, ElasticSearch is reindexing - again)

Also, coffee machine is too far away.
