Already planning on them adding Rustdesk in case of issues in the future actually 😅
I know it doesn't need hourly updates but something that relies on other data (in this case LLMs) probably needs yearly updates at the very least to ensure better compatibility with newer models.
It's a good reference guide, yes, but it's not good for beginners. The linked TRaSH guide seems better but I think are still a lot.
The issue I've found when searching for resources for them is that there's really no guide me for people who know very little but want to do this and guides them in the proper steps from beginning to end. I have an IT degree and even I remember struggling a little bit when I first delved into self hosting because I never really studied networking, and networking feels like a different field entirely. Right now self hosting in general reminds me of the early days of Slackware (maybe even SLS) Linux (for those that remember) - you kind of have to ask around and figure things out on your own through a bunch of lookup.
I'm trying to ease the friction a little bit for those that want too start, and want to see if an LLM that can quickly define some words and tell you not only where to start but the steps after that based on your skill/knowledge level can ease some of that friction.
At least until one day self hosting becomes about as easy as modern Linux.
How would I stir fry the wok by hand tho if built in? Good to know that maybe I could get that effect with higher watts.
I am interested in this in general too. I have a 3090 which I know isn't much but have been thinking of trying to get a second 3090 and using an NVLink to increase to 48Gb. Mostly for learning and testing purposes, and then to eventually offer to donate to my wife's local school district a local model they own (since teachers aren't supposed to put student info online, that includes private LLM models like ChatGPT, but they keep accidentally doing so anyway).
But one project at a time, and setting up this LLM would help my two friends if they have issues (it's easy to forget for people like us that to nearly everyone else, setting up Jellyfin properly with remote access as well as things like Docker are not easy, even when they have base level knowledge), but it might help others in the future too that might then get interested in self hosting. A 24/7 guide can make a difference I think in someone actually trying self hosting or not.
I asked mostly because I haven't seen any guides like that. The long video guides are also usually outdated or a very specific method that's more advanced (like bare metal setup or using ignition)
My plan was to lead them through something like what I use which is base Debian using Dockge and a reverse proxy (though I'm looking into KDE Plasma BigScreen). I think they might be able to figure it out with help and some general written instructions and the AI for further questions.
Is GPT4all still up to date though? I see the last release was in 2024
Any step-by-step text guides you'd recommend? They're not exactly tech beginners, but they're also not quite knowledgeable yet. I guided them through Linux install but they use Bazzite and mostly stick to Bazaar on it for any programs they need.
And the Arr Stack, and KitchenOwl, and LibreCloset. They also want something for YouTube, but haven't decided what they might like the most yet - was thinking of testing KDE's new Plasma BigScreen and seeing how Waydroid does at running S-tube.
If that worked well enough, then I'd probably try setting them up with that
I have the Alpaca Flatpak, can I set this up in that or is Ollama better? I'm running on Debian
Are there any electric stoves that can give you Wok Hei though? I've seen only the ones that are wok shaped at least but they don't get hot enough
He has a special club. To join, you have to find a pair of dirty boots, then lick them clean.
