Yes

That is a patent, not a copyright. If you sell you car, you don’t have it anymore. If somebody steals your car, you don’t have it anymore. What I’m on about is the difference between material and intellectual goods. You can read it up, if your school didn’t cover it.

Of course I’m really not a fan of whatever they do and I would never buy an Ubisoft game for at least a decade now, but I still think that a lot of people should don’t know what buying means and that they never, ever bought (and hence owned) a game or movie. Those are not material goods like a car, which you can physically transfer from one person to another. Those are intellectual goods, and ownership here means you own all rights for it, which usually only the publisher has. What you buy online or in a shop is mere a license to watch/play/use/whatever and a medium with the associated data (like a DVD).

Therefore “piracy” had never been theft (or robbery, as it is called so nicely on German news). It is a license violation. Just that doesn’t sound as demonizing as the publisher want it to sound.

That is the entire second row about

While on a bad mint I would also not get laid… Alright, I’ll see myself out…

Particularly cats have a very difficult to read style of showing their affection. So your pet might care more than you think. All the best!

My cat is now eating his medicine out of my hand, because he knows he will get a treat afterwards. You just need to have something they really crave.

LLM are used particularly to process big amounts of text. I remember my first encounter with it in 2009, somebody giving a talk about observing topics on Twitter, e.g. to track the source of fake news or figure out why some particular topic became viral.

You might already be using it regularly with a translation tool. Yesterday I just saw a foss app called receipt-wrangler, which uses LLM to parse shopping receipts, because a simple scan and ocr would still leave you with a highly unstructured heap of text, which is hard to parse into anything useful.

I’m very happy with my ASRock N100 (either m or DC). It has sufficient performance for my needs (proxmox with opnsense, jellyfin and various other services) while using very little power

Yes

I find it increasingly hard to find decent stuff without that.

Are you a Disney princess?

Nix is on my infinitely long list of stuff to get into, when I’m in better shape.

I really like the idea, but for my purpose an open case is a no-go. It’s for my Homeserver and I have two hyper active cats ;) but I was already thinking to get some kind of skeleton like this and put someone around. Is this applicable for micro ATX Mainboards?

I heard that concern already, but had troubles finding something decent without blowing my wallet… the problem was obviously the search filters on the website, which I used… looking for the name, you provided I instantly found something really decent, which actually turned out cheaper Oo

ok, thanks. yes I noticed the realtek nic, but unfortunately I haven’t found a single MB with an intel chip below 200euro. So if this really causes issues, I’ll just get a PCIe NIC

RAM is not PCIe, so that is an independent question, whether to go for DDR5. Unfortunately I am not deep enough into the matter to give you a real answer to your question

thank you for the input and the references, this is highly appreciated!

• The concerns for the motherboard I am already looking into, do you have any thoughts on the ASRock B650M PG LIGHTNING, or the ASRock B650 PG LIGHTNING? latter is unfortunately not in stock, but besides the missing heatsink on top and the size I also do not really see a practical difference between the two
• it was funny to me, that nobody commented on the ram yet, that was literally the cheapest I found for the MB. So I can try to reiterate that part
• concerning monitor I was recently very lucky. I friend of mine fried his own and bought a new one, then he ask me, if I want to have it in order to try to fix it. Turned out the internal PSU was fried… so I tossed it out, soldered a barrel jack to the input wires and now use a 20euro external PSU. its a 1440p monitor with 165Hz.

they are a bit more pricy, but not much, so I changed that, thanks :)
