Heathrow is by far the worst I’ve experienced, I’ve had several connnecting flights there.
London-Heathrow made me realize that kicking out all the tea-drinking faggots out of our country was the right thing to do.
The way to have to find your gate in the last hour is bonkers. They check your ID to buy TYLONAL.
TSA Precheck it makes it less painful.
Highly recommend TSA Precheck. Seasoned travelers use it and the TSA lines are less of a clusterfuck.
 
I don't see how people are running this without renting server hardware.
They have smaller models (7b, 33b, 70b, etc) and people have quantized these smaller models as well which reduce memory requirements. A quantized 33b can fit on a 4090. A 70b can work on it if you're willing for it to be painfully slow (some layers have to be offloaded to the CPU since they can't fit in vram).

People are so excited about these because the 400b version is the first time an open source model has been able to even scrape competing with the big guys. The 70b impressed me because it was the first model I'd seen that when asked to tell a joke, attempted to create a novel joke instead of reusing one it had trained on. The joke was shit, but it was still the first time one of the models even tried.

It has absolutely been censored just like you'd expect a Chinese model to be. It will not tell you how to make a bomb nor what happened in Tiananmen Square in 1989. However, because people can download the weights themselves we have a chance at fine-tuning them to decensor the models (see the dolphin series of models on huggingface for other models being decensored).

Why is Trump hell bent on propping up OpenAi. It's dogshit.
Gemini would legitimately be a better option at this point, and it's from fucking Google. I hate Google, and even I have to admit they're doing better than Altman.

This shit is mental, discounting the dumbass search labs they've shoved into Google search that just regurgitates Reddit joke posts from 9 years ago as fact, we simply did not have the ability to do this even 2 years back.
 
>Super, hyper, mutt destroying advanced AI
>Look inside
>Search engine and image generator
Every fucking time.
It literally in the Search Engine wars of then 90s all over again, you had Yahoo, AskJeeves, infoseek and then Google just wiped them all out.

I don’t understand why Altman who has all this capital isn’t just developing a suite of services like Google did. Google and Microsoft are not the best (they kinda suck) they just threw apps together people got attached to it.
 
"a-a-and about the t-trump d-d-death camps" holy shit they can't even gin up the fantasyland Trumpschwitz camp rhetoric like they used to without shaking in their little booties. I said it earlier, but I cannot wait for Trump to have the free time to make a national embarrassment out of MSM and journalists.
 
I doubt Trump would've happened if not for Obama. You can call that "damage to the republicans" or not, but you can't deny that Obama changed the republican party from the party of Mitt Romney to the party of Donald Trump.
Obama's roast of Trump was the final straw. He was full of pride and thought the Democrats had won for eternity. He mocked the wrong man.
 
Every day I wish The Punisher was real, and we had one in multiple cities.

Cartel moves into your neighborhood and opens a drug lab? Punisher.
Rape gangs are roaming your streets and taking girls away? Punisher.
The ChoMo in your neighborhood moved back after being released? Punisher.
This site is just a bunch of redditfugees, isn't it.

you are blackpilling
Africa is literally gonna collapse due to nigger aids and you are blackpilling

Not saying I support foreign aid but I dunno man feral rape machines who regularly emmigrate to the west with little to no oversight and may be infected with mega-AIDs that can't even be treated is pretty scary.

Um, isn't the average politician wealthier than the average American? They're not all millionaires and I would expect the new politicians to not be super wealthy but like...they all have more money than Joe Taxpayer.

You'd have to try pretty hard to be a politician and not be a millionaire. It's not exactly a high bar in an era where a reasonable family home costs $400,000. I'd be shocked if there is anyone in the house or congress who has a net worth of under $1,000,000 beyond their first year of holding that job.

That and Romney losing in 2012 I think set him off. I still remember Trump’s little endorsement speech for Romney.
Romney is total opposite of Trump. He was polite, well spoken, middle of the road. And the Democratic machine ate him alive making a big deal about a boring recorded tape where Romney more or less poor people wouldn’t vote for him. Oh and “Binders full of women:”

The smartest thing Trump did was recognize he was going to be presented as the bad guy no matter what. There is no point in placating a political machine that’s out to destroy you.
