Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

You won't get the GPUs. Most of the AI hardware is not usable to you. They didn't just sell all the desktop RAM and GPUs to AI companies, they dedicated most of the production to data center hardware that you can't use. Relief isn't coming, what you need doesn't exist.
There could be something like the bc250 coming out of this.
I'm sure with all these AI startups there's plenty that used consumer grade stuff because that's what they could get
Either way though, I run enterprise servers in my homelab so I stand to benefit even if mostly enterprise server RAM and data center class GPUs hit the market
You can rent consumer grade GPUs on cloud servers for your AI computing, so yes
And they're not going to switch production back to consumer hardware either. Those data centers will be used to sell virtual desktop subscriptions.
The hardware in those DCs isn't suitable for virtual desktops. It's specifically designed for doing lossy matrix multiplication, something that's only useful for a certain type of "AI" tasks.
At that point I'm willing to raid a data center
Why the fuck would anyone buy this. Come on.
Because they will have no other option once their existing system dies. In this scenario actual PCs will be something only the wealthy can afford. Everyone else gets dumb terminals.
And honestly, VDI is great from a general user standpoint. It's the companies who run it that make it a bad option.
Well, they're also a bad option when the data centers hosting them get bombed
I'm far from an expert on these things, but I have a tough time believing that latency won't be a critical issue for many consumer applications.
With ftth, latency isn't as big of an issue as it used to be.
Because people are fucking idiots.
I’m more concerned with jobs in the best future, tbh
