- Comment on Is it a good idea to use an Android phone as an external SSD for backing up my home folder? 6 days ago:
Doesn’t have to be a USB drive. You can also backup your data to a network storage if you have any.
Good choice with EndeavourOS btw., using it since over a year now and I am very happy.
- Comment on What type of computer setup would one need to run ai locally? 1 week ago:
As others said it all depends on what you expect. I run stable diffusion on my gaming pc with 32GB RAM and a AMD 9070xt and it works fine. Did also on a 6800xt before that one died. A GPU with 16GB RAM helps a lot, would say that 12GB is the minimum. Lower will limit you in the models and speed.
For LLM just try it out, they work fine without special hardware for smaller models and as long as you are the only user. There are tools like Jan or lmstudio which make it easy to run.

Unfortunately AMD is affected by RAM shortage too.
- Comment on Geo-distributed Jellyfin 2 weeks ago:
Latency shouldn’t be a big problem if it doesn’t have massive spikes. Packet loss could be a problem, seems like Jellyfin doesn’t have an option zu increase the buffer size which may help. Or the problem is in combination with transcoding.
- Comment on Geo-distributed Jellyfin 2 weeks ago:
Maybe we don’t talk about the same. The uplink at his router isn’t the problem, there is enough upload speed so that others in Europe can stream. Users in Asia don’t have enough bandwidth, so there’s a bottleneck somewhere in between.
And yes, a VPN could help by routing the traffic through other hops, but chances are that it doesn’t help or even make it worse, but it’s worth trying.

The uplink isn’t the problem as it works for viewers in Europe.

PSU had shortage or really high prices a few years ago because the new GPU gen needed beefier PSU.

- Comment on I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows 5 weeks ago:
I had crashes on Linux because of defective hardware but first thought it was because of software/config/driver issues. I reinstalled the OS, problem persisted. I installed two other completely different distros, problem still there. To make sure it’s not because of Linux in general, I installed Windows…
Damn the installation of Windows (newest image) with updates and only the basic drivers for GPU and mainboard took longer than installing three different Linux distros, and I’m not exaggerating!
Linux: Boot installer, choose to use network installation so you get the newest packages, maybe add or remove some features, choose locales, enter login credentials, reboot when finished, done.
Windows: Boot installer, workaround to use local account, installing files, reboot, installing more files, choose locale and login credentials, answer questions about privacy, install more files, reboot, login to Windows, download updates, reboot, download more updates, open edge (optional: install other browser), visit mainboard manufacturer website, search for correct drivers, install, reboot, visit GPU website, download driver, install, reboot…
And then it’s only the absolute minimum. No debloat or other software installed like office suite or steam which on Linux can selected and installed directly with the OS.

Depends on your needs and resolution. You can always upgrade CPU to a Ryzen 5700x3d and the GPU to something like a rx6000 or rtx4000 series and get a big boost. No nees do go all in with newest hardware.
