This is more complicated than some corporate infrastructures I’ve worked on, lol.

Python is quite slow, so will use more CPU cycles than many other languages. If you’re doing data-heavy stuff, it’ll probably also use more RAM than, say C, where you can control types and memory layout of structs.

That being said, for services, I typically use FastAPI, because it’s just so quick to develop stuff in Python. I don’t do heavy stuff in Python; that’s done by packages that wrap binaries complied from C, C++, Fortran, or CUDA. If I need tight-loops, I either entirely switch to a different language (Rust, lately), or I write a library and interact with it with ctypes.

Yeah, the image bytes are random because they’re already compressed (unless they’re bitmaps, which is not likely).

Toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels. If you go the absolute cheapest, they’re arguably defective, but the second cheapest is usually ok.

camelCase for non-source-code files. I find camelCase faster to “parse” for some reason (probably just because I’ve spent thousands of hours reading and writing camelCase code). For programming, I usually just use whatever each language’s standard library uses, for consistency. I prefer camelCase though.

I’ve heard high velocity rounds (such as rifle rounds) send a kind of shockwave through your body. Dunno if it’s true or not.

OSMC’s Vero V looks interesting. Pi 4 with OSMC or Librelec could work. I’m probably going to do something like this pretty soon. I just set up an *arr stack last week, and just using my smart TV with the jellyfin app installed ATM.

My PC running the Jellyfin server can’t transcode some videos though; probably going to put an Arc a310 in it.

I think most projects left Sourceforge after they started putting adware into they’re downloads.

I’ve been using last.fm for, I guess, decades now. Looking at what my “neighbors” are listening to is the most helpful.

I’ve used this before: https://github.com/wilicc/gpu-burn?tab=readme-ov-file

Yeah, it may be a driver issue, Nvidia/pytorch handles OOM gracefully on my system.

That seems strange. Perhaps you should stress-test your GPU/system to see if it’s a hardware problem.

SD works fine for me with: Driver Version: 525.147.05 CUDA Version: 12.0

I use this docker container: https://github.com/AbdBarho/stable-diffusion-webui-docker

You will also need to install the nvidia container toolkit if you use docker containers: https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/latest/install-guide.html

Yeah, torrents usually run 100-300KiB/s. I guess not too bad for smaller files. About an hour or three per GB.

I mean, you can be sued for anything, but it will get thrown out. Like, I guess the MPAA could offer a movie for download, then try to sue the first hop they upload a chunk to, but that really doesn’t make any sense (because they offered it for download in the first place). Furthermore, the first hop(s) aren’t the people that are using the file, and they can’t even read it. If people could successfully sue nodes, then ISPs and postal services could be sued for anything that passes through their networks.

Onion-like routing. It takes multiple hops to get to a destination. Each hop can only decrypt the next destination to send the packet to (i.e. peeling off a layer of the onion).

I’ve had unattended upgrades running on a home server for a couple years and haven’t had any issues.

They’re good for media centers, since the support 4k HDR. Can also use Moonlight to stream games from a PC. GPIO is useful, but I guess the PI is overpowered for most GPIO use cases at this point.

Hmm, so looks like around 100kB/s. That’s about what I remember (100kB/s - 300kB/s).

I’ve recently been trying out Tribler, and it’s much faster than the last time I tried it (I’ve seen 2MB/s on popular torrents, but around 500kB/s on less popular). Not sure if there are simply more exit nodes with more bandwidth now or if there are more people on the Tribler network seeding.

According to the docs there’s some kind of search functionality built into it: https://github.com/BiglySoftware/BiglyBT/wiki/MetaSearch

Off-topic: I haven’t tried i2p in years and have never used BiglyBT. Out of curiosity, what download speeds are you seeing?
