@h3artbl33d Ah ok.Yes, AMD Ryzen PRO with AMD Memory Guard.

@perpetuum_mobile Since Gemma4 came out, I agree it's been the gold standard for performance vs compute. If SoC is the way forward for local compute (and I think its clear it is) the real jump happens when unified memory architectures can actually handle the token volume an agentic harness needs. Progress on memory overhead for long-context agents, combined with advancements in unified pool architecture, make this a real possibility in the near future.

@RxBrad this is an ext of -aar apps and actually pretty useful, pragmatic #cable cutting

Having a "reflective" afternoon.On the topic of free operating systems, I have been playing with these lately, and recommend if it suits usage (alpha order).- Alpine Linux (my daily driver)- Chimera Linux- Elementary Linux- FreeBSD- OpenBSD- Solus Linux Not "mainstream" suggestions per se, and that's kinda the point. Caveats re: glibc/musl, nvidia support, etc. apply. If I had to have nvidia support for my primary workstation I'd probably go with Solus (KDE), or at least try it, in spite of systemd.I'm starting to scratch the surface on - CachyOS for my son's gaming rig. Pretty much what it says on the tin. I like it. Arch could use a bit of polish. We'll see how it goes on real hardware. Others that I haven't run much beyond playing with the iso, but am intrigued by, mostly by intended use case tbh:- Mint- ZorinI used to run these for years and years and years but don't nowadays:- Arch- GentooExcellent, but the time intensity ... ~20 years ago I used to run Gentoo in a government research agency data centre. Even came up with an "ansible-like" set of deployment scripts/framework and whatnot in /bin/bash+openssh to manage them (pre-dates Ansible). Fun times... the time... the time.Gentoo was bracketed by RHEL in the past and CentOS as the successor. CentOS was fine but gave up a lot of performance way back then. Shifting priorities, server hardware was still following Moore's, and all that.I flirted with Ubuntu a bit over the years. Could never really get into it back when it was decent. I won't touch it now.Today, I think I'm done with Debian. Too static for my tastes - stuff gets too stale. Sure, there's Testing/Sid but there's also other options at that point. Now that I'm a sysadmin just for myself I can embrace using whatever I want. Ha. I'm all about community projects nowadays. Corporate software will eventually disappoint you so it pays to just not go there in the first place.Deep thoughts.#Linux #RunBSD #HomeLab #SelfHosted #SelfHosting #AlpineLinux #ChimeraLinux #Elementary #ElementaryOS #FreeBSD#OpenBSD #SolusLinux #Solus #LinuxMint #ZorinLinux #Gentoo #ArchLinux #CachyOS

@kotking @elettrona Hey! Holos is in the YunoHost queue, take a look because it might be a good fit for you: it's a fediverse server running in your phone paired with a light oblivious relay server. Coming out of beta, but already usable: https://mastodon.social/@HolosSocial/116087651974449074It has some unique features, but the portable identity might be the most attractive.@_elena I'd love a writeup when/if it's up in YH. Your series is great.
