Open Source@lemmy.ml•How does one get into Open Source, generally?English
17·6 days agoYou can also contribute to OpenStreetMap in your area using simple apps like StreetComplete or EveryDoor. This has a way lower barrier to entry than contributing code in my opinion. And it has the immediate benefit of a better local map for a LOT of services that are built on top of OSM.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•AI-assisted moderation in the fediverse is happening. Now what?English
102·16 days agoI’m really not fond of the profiling by automated means, but it seems like an inevitable consequence of the design of the threadiverse. Everything is public and easily accessible by anyone that would like to profile you.
I certainly disapprove of moderation based on ideology. Moderation should be based on quality of the content and if it fits in the publicly readable rules. Definitely not some hidden analytics or if the user completely fits in the in-group of the moderator.
I will admit that this might be a good way to find and filter out LLM based bots that are only there to promote or manipulate the conversation. But it should still be done according to public rules.

1·18 days agoI trust them as much as Google, Meta, or any other big tech company. I won’t use their cloud services, but I do run there local models.

Linux@programming.dev•AMD will finally add HDMI 2.1 support to LinuxEnglish
3·19 days agoI’m no expert, but basically the way to unlock higher/full bandwidth for HDMI 2.1. This will allow the use of higher refresh rate, resolution, and bit depth + HDR. Right now you need to make sacrifices in at least one category with HDMI

23·19 days agoWhat is the difference between this implementation and the reverse engineered patches that were published a few months ago by Michał Kopeć and Tomasz Pakuła?
Edit: apparently it’s not the same patch, but Tomasz was CC’ed in the patch set so the timing might not be accidental.

3·19 days agoI think I saw a similar comment on here last month. It was a user saying that Gemma claimed to send his chats to Google. Which is clearly a hallucination.
I’m not a professional or expert on anything security and/or AI related but this is my take:
- In general there will not be data sent anywhere if you use the big/trustworthy open-source backends.
- Unless there are bigger security issues the model files shouldn’t contain such code.
- Data could be sent using MCP/tool calling but you can see each tool call as it is happening so it can’t be hidden.
If you really don’t trust something you can always try to use a network sniffer

Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu 26.02 working like it’s too newEnglish
6·26 days agoDon’t know about Ubuntu specifically but for all software I actually want to work, I wait for the first point release upon a major release.
Artificial Analysis just posted their results and there seems to be a similar increase in output token usage as the 35B model.

LocalLLaMA@sh.itjust.works•Qwen3.6-35B-A3B releasedEnglish
2·29 days agoAh, I don’t know anything about Windows. I’m using Linux and both the latest ROCM (7.2.2) and latest vulkan (26.0.5) packages work without issues for combined gaming and AI. My reported numbers were with Vulkan at zero context for reference.

LocalLLaMA@sh.itjust.works•Qwen3.6-35B-A3B releasedEnglish
3·29 days agoI’ve been using it for the past few days and the output quality seems to be on par or slightly better than 3.5 27b. The biggest issue is the token usage that has exploded with this revision. It can easily reason for 20k-25k tokens on a question where the qwen3.5 models used 10k. Since it runs more than 3 times faster, it still finished earlier than the 27b, but I won’t have any context/vram left to ask multiple questions.
Artificial Analysis has similar findings.

LocalLLaMA@sh.itjust.works•Qwen3.6-35B-A3B releasedEnglish
9·1 month agoI agree with the suggestion of the other commenters, just wanted to add that I personally run llama.cpp directly with the build in llama-server. For a single-user server this seems to work great and is almost always at the forefront of model support.

LocalLLaMA@sh.itjust.works•Qwen3.6-35B-A3B releasedEnglish
6·27 days agoI’m running it with the UD_Q4_K_XL quant on 24GB VRAM 7900XTX at ~120-130* token/s. Since it’s an MOE model, CPU inference with 32 GB ram should be doable, but I won’t make any promises on speed.
*Edit: I had a configuration issue on my llama.cpp that reduced the performance. It was limited to 85 tk/s but that was user error on my part.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Checking....what's the status for FOSS agentic AI models with skills?English
3·1 month agoAllenAI has released open source models with open training data, code and science. If you value the ‘source’ to actually be open. They’ve also published the multimodal Molmo models.
