wewbull,

His accent is Lithuanian.

wewbull,

Yep, today I had a typo in a package name, and it cascaded into a syntax error. The syntax was absolutely fine.

wewbull,

That just means your bar is really low. How’s that a compliment?

wewbull,

Why would I ever do a fresh install?

Gentoo goes Binary (packages) (www.gentoo.org)

To speed up working with slow hardware and for overall convenience, we’re now also offering binary packages for download and direct installation! For most architectures, this is limited to the core system and weekly updates - not so for amd64 and arm64 however. There we’ve got a stunning >20 GByte of packages on our mirrors,...

wewbull,

Quite the statement that Gentoo has survived for so long compiling from source but, even with ever advancing processor speeds, they’ve finally gone "Nah… Takes to long. ".

I mean, I don’t blame them. Yesterday I left my machine building a PyTorch package for 4 hours on a 12 core processor.

wewbull,

My beef tends to be with software out of FANGs. Big teams and huge codebase to match. Completely inpetetrable for the rest of us and, I suspect, far more code then there should be.

wewbull,

Gen-toobin

The distro for white water rafters.

wewbull,

Errrm, could they please leave some memory to other processes? KDE already takes about 1.5GB of VRAM on my RX7600 8GB just running a desktop (dual head 4k + 1440p displays). Yes, things can get swapped out to main memory, but that becomes choppy. I’d rather run single buffered, get the odd screen tear, and have the VRAM back for real work.

wewbull,

Also, finding an exploit means the system will get stronger very shortly.

wewbull,

Doing something nobody has ever done before should be something we strive for.

Do we really need more websites that are really just front-ends on databases?

It works today. Only problem I have is the memory management is pretty poor, and it’s pretty easy to run out of vram.

Rx7600 8GB + 5900X Rocm 5.7.1 Pytorch 2.1

wewbull,

Not really. I’ve had to do quite a bit of experimentation.

My setup that I’ve settled on:

  • Rocm system libraries from Arch Linux
  • PyTorch nightly for Rocm pip installed into a venv (see instructions on pytorch homepage)
  • Set HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION to 11.0.0. This is just for the RX7600 and it tells it to use the RX7900 code as the pytorch version hasn’t been compiled with 7600 support.
  • Start software.
wewbull,

So, you would never trade with someone else something you have for something they have? You want to be entirely self sufficient?

If this isn’t true, why do think markets serve no purpose?

wewbull,

Poor Marvin
