Have been using Neo Launcher since it had the features I needed from Nova (mostly hiding most apps from the app list while having them on the home screen in some folder so that it isn't a mess when you want to find something specific). It hasn't been updated in a while, but it works perfectly fine for me.

But 22301 isn't prime? It's 29*769.

A piece of plastic broke off from my laptop once. It was supposed to hold one of the two screws fixing the cover of the RAM & drive section and now there was just a larger round hole. I've measured the hole and the screw, designed a replacement in Blender (not identical, I wanted something more solid and reliable) and printed it; took two attempts to get the shape perfectly right. Have had zero issues with it in all these years.

Thanks! I now see that Tai Chi is mentioned frequently online in context of the film unlike yoga so that should be right; it narrows things down.

 

Hope it isn't considered offtopic here; I don't know of any better places to ask.

It's from a wonderful film by Jim Jarmusch, The Limits of Control. This character is frequently seen to practice something that might be yoga (or maybe not?) and in the end of his sessions he places his hands in this configuration and bows slightly.

I want to read about the precise significance/context behind the gesture, but first I need to know its name.

I've searched among various yoga mudras for a little while and I couldn't identify any exact matches so far (at least a couple of details differ from what I see). ChatGPT couldn't do it either. At the same time it seems to me that it isn't the first time I see it.

KOReader supports custom CSS. You can certainly change the background colour with it, I think a grid should be possible too.

That's the ones, the 0414 release.

QWQ-32B for most questions, llama-3.1-8B for agents. I'm looking for new models to replace them though, especially the agent one.

Want to test the new GLM models, but I'd rather wait for llama.cpp to definitely fix the bugs with them first.

What I've ultimately converged to without any rigorous testing is:

  • using Q6 if it fits in VRAM+RAM (anything higher is a waste of memory and compute for barely any gain), otherwise either some small quant (rarely) or ignoring the model altogether;
  • not really using IQ quants - afair they depend on a dataset and I don't want the model's behaviour to be affected by some additional dataset;
  • other than the Q6 thing, in any trade-offs between speed and quality I choose quality - my usage volumes are low and I'd better wait for a good result;
  • I load as much as I can into VRAM, leaving 1-3GB for the system and context.

Maybe some Borges too?

LLaMA can't. Chameleon and similar ones can:

For Tolkien's work, there is the twelve volume "The Complete History of Middle Earth" which is about as inside baseball as you can get for Tolkien.

I'd replace HoME with Parma Eldalamberon, Vinyar Tengwar and other journals publishing his early materials here.

 

How do you acquire sheet music?

There're IMSLP and musescore, but many things are just not there.

Bonus points if you know anything with xenharmonic/microtonal music well-represented.
