winter @madoka.systems · 10hnothing feels better than having so much memory pressure that your trackpad haptics stop working and then come all at once 070
winter @madoka.systems · 14hlike it's good enough that i can get 20tok/s with 64gb of unified memory. yes that is a lot of memory used for not that great of speeds but also this is a *laptop* 030
winter @madoka.systems · 14hqwen4 architecture is really good what the fuck? i really hope they release a smaller model that's like 60B-A3B range or something so you might be able to run it with a normal gpu w/ 16gb of vram and still have acceptable speeds/intelligence... 1110
winter @madoka.systems · 16hi do wonder why apple hasn't done something hardware wise to detect this sort of thing... like i feel like it should be pretty easy to detect "hey the speaker isn't consuming any power" but i'm not quite sure what you do with that information in the first place... 030
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026did you know: you do not have to argue with everyone incorrect online and can just block them if you don't wanna see it this even extends to people who slightly annoy you, why would you interact with someone on the internet who only makes you mad? i just don't get it 0372
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026tbh it's probably accurate to call bsky "mastodon but it's easier to sign up so there's more people" 030
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026ig having 10 images allowed for free is nice but discovery still sucks and here has at least 50x fewer users for me i use this one for "real people's opinions on tech or whatever" and then twitter for art, jerking off, or seeing my friend's private accounts 120
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026i still regularly use my account over there but it's just for retweeting art and the occasional qrt of something. i have no idea what bluesky could do to convince people to move here, it's not like they can say "your images won't be used for training unlike X" because that's just wrong 120
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026imagining a multiplayer game where it's p2p but over wireguard for some reason. i have no idea what this would acomplish but it'd be funny 170
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026it's wonderful to see people discovering that "you own your data" does also mean you can do funny stuff like changing the record key to something funny but that also means you can lie to clients that don't verify the content id 1140
winter @madoka.systems · 01/10/2026i did not know we had the technology in current day to simply swap out the renderer from directx to vulkan at runtime 1110

winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026can't you just use k2.8 or k2.6 and then delegate to another one if you need Coding Performance™ 130
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026witchsky's redraft and mu.social's limited time edit button with downsides are fine enough though 010
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026tbf there's still not a true edit option here either but it's hard when the network is open and you don't control the data people provide 210
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026it's also fine to have one because they're cute, but their prices new are sooo overinflated and production of them is bad for the environment anyways—worse than CDs, even though CDs are literally chunks of plastic imo it's way more effort to even listen to them, CDs are way nicer to pop in and play 1100
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026i don't really get vinyl as a format for actually listening to music, CDs are literally better in every way for actually listening to music. they're good collection pieces, like a poster, but i really don't take any big collection seriously... 6160
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026honestly i haven't trusted any of the big popular artists to have all that much going for their releases that's not just the median song in their genre, optimized to make the most money, rather than an expression of human creativity 140
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026correction: 99% of blue checkmark X users are idiots and you can safely assume all rage bait from them is just to make money 130
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026having a client that isn't obviously slopped out in an afternoon would be nice too. symphonium is not one of these, but going to the navidrome clients page shows a lot of them it's not a universal indicator of actual quality of course but not having enough faith to say why it's good yourself is...navidrome.orgClient AppsApps & Players Stream your music anywhere with apps for Android, iOS, desktop, and web. Any app that supports the OpenSubsonic API works with Navidrome. 000
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026at least pirating isn't that bad to do... slskd + beets w/ the bad files and musicbrainz plugins + navidrome and symphonium works pretty well for me, but i also enjoy being a sysadmin which puts me in the minority (having access to models helps too for automatically fixing stuff i don't want to do) 030
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026either the account system needs to be better or someone says "fuck all legacy" and makes something that can authenticate with a generic backend 100
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026it'd be so nice if i could use something else that wasn't trying to be an opensubsonic wrapper, but navidrome's core is good and fine for music, especially if your use case is being a single person streaming from your computer with more storage to your phone with less... 100
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026separating this but god i haaaate how navidrome does not have good authentication options. maybe i'm weird for this but i feel like in the big 2026 having some sort of OIDC connector is really nice. there are workarounds for this but they don't work if you use anything using the navidrome api 100
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026maybe the second point here is beat if i was normal and just used the bandcamp app tho 040
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026$10-15/month for not needing to worry about any of these things for the average consumer seems well worth it for not needing to worry about on device space and honestly on a budget yes streaming does not pay artists nearly enough but a lot of people don't care about that and just want to play music 190
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026i think for a some people yes (myself included in this tbf) but it's really hard to beat the convenience of streaming and not having to worry about tagging, shitty mobile navidrome clients, and buying songs/albums being objectively more expensive than streaming 2120
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026unironically could be the case :) he barely types anything himself into my issues anymore i'm thinking it's outside life factors tho 030
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026i found it, the repo looks suspicous to me and i'm not a fan of being made to read llm-prose in the readme though i guess that's expected for anything ai/ml related nowadays :( 110
winter @madoka.systems · 30/09/2026i'd be doing this on some M5 which has a much weaker gpu but probably better memory bandwidth so we'll see... i think i'll be more limited by active parameter count than model size 110
