Which Shield device do you have?

You could get great improvements replacing the internal mechanical hard drive for a SSD.

Did it for mine, and the speed improvement is very noticeable. Specially when updating or rebooting the device.

I used this guide, and I’m still seeding the drive image torrent: https://xdaforums.com/t/nvidia-shield-tv-ssd-done.3402580/

Glad to hear!

And the developer is quite responsive, open up a GitHub issue with the details and I’m confident it’ll get sorted out.

He’s also on Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@_jocmp

Not exactly what you asked, but if you’re gonna read from Android, I highly suggest CapyReader.

I highly recommend trying CapyReader for mobile, it is much snappier!

Is the little Tux inviting you to play, or does it not know how to hold a gamepad?

Sorry Google, PostmarketOS will scratch that itch and soon enough eat your lunch: https://postmarketos.org/

Man, what a terrible generative AI picture.

Yes it is!

Although I can’t migrate from CORE and have the service migrated seamlessly unless I use VMs.

And I don’t know docker containers, so it is something else I’d have to learn and understand. If I have to choose, I’d probably learn LXN/Incus instead.

I’ve been slowly, but steadily, migrating the services I run on my TrueNAS CORE (FreeBSD) from Jails to Debian VMs so I can migrate to TrueNAS 25 (no more SCALE it seems, and Linux) around April without many hurdles, hopefully.

Besides having to learn some systemd, it has been a smooth ride.

Now I’m down to the last 2 services, which I think are the most complicated setups I have and with no nice deb packages to ease installation: Paperless-ngx and Photoprism.

I’ll probably look into playing with Containers (LXC/Incus) to have the same lightweight and efficiency as Jails once the migration to Linux is done. But honestly, if everything is running nicely, I won’t be very motivated to do so, let’s see.

“My friend”, sure.

650W with a 2.5-ish slot 3 fan cooler?

That thing is gonna be loud!

Unless… that’s just ASRock boasting about the power delivery for (unrealized) OC potential of the card.

It being pixel art, I’d say it stretches very well. If you use nearest neighbor scaling, that is.

Blame Altman on that one, from the article:

Altman once called OpenAI’s partnership with Microsoft “the best bromance in tech,”

I wouldn’t doubt that LLMs got some special input to deal with the specific examples of this paper, or similar enough.

I wrote red soil, but more specifically, where I lived there was Terra Roxa (purple soil?), which seems to be a kind of red soil according to the English Wikipedia page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_roxa

And it is the prevalent soil on the north of the state of Paraná, regarded as Brazil’s agricultural barn: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraná_(state)

So it does confuse me that the state’s soil would be unfertile, as I grew up learning how good it was and surrounded by prosperous farms.

The Portuguese Wikipedia page does talk about it being fertile (no English translation): https://pt.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_roxa

So maybe it isn’t a type of red soil in the end; or there are some types of red soil that are (very) fertile.

Brazilian here. Perfectly safe (color-wise; of course it can be polluted as hell despite its color, just like any other river).

Our ground/mud has a different color. Some areas on the south even have a red soil (very fertile, but makes everything about ground level look dirty very quickly): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_soil

There’s great variety of water colors even in the same area, just search for images “meeting of the waters Manaus”:

Well, no upscaling yet, it seems: https://www.pcgamer.com/hardware/graphics-cards/amd-is-set-to-finally-join-nvidia-with-fsr-4-using-ai-to-power-frame-generation-though-no-word-on-upscaling-yet/

Now it sounds just like AI fluff to me.

I couldn’t get a good understanding if AI will only be used for Frame Generation (which I’m not so enthusiastic about, with its latency and quality issues) or for upscaling too (that I’m quite a fan of).

Probably good to add a /s somewhere here.

I suspect people are down voting without checking the piece.

I know I would, but I saw it shared on Mastodon in a cheeky way first.
