Meet Clover-35B-A3B-Preview 🍀 the first open-weight production diffusion language model (dLLM) with 35B total parameters capable of 680 tps on a single card at BF16. Clover exhibits strong performance against both dLLM and AR models and is available today at @huggingface @ModelScope2022 and at our website

No hardware? No problem. PhobOS Torizon also has the PhobOS Emulator Manager. It automatically downloads the PhobOS Torizon image tuned for QEMU, so you have the same level of experience as with a native image. More about: microhobby.com.br/blog/whats…

The application is a container image where all the dependencies for X11/Wayland, DCHD, TPM v2, and QEMU are packaged. The GUI is written in @slint_ui Python, which has been pretty fun and easy to work on!.

The fun with local models never ends 😁

I need to say that the last updates made it much better. Now I can use even a 64k context window without problems. Before, it showed a pop-up asking me to change to at least 256k. Now is usable and I can leverage the nice MCP extensions.
The VS Code chat is horrible for local LLMs Or am I missing something?

Using VS Code chat as default harness and local models? Add these to the settings.json: "chat.editor.localAgent.enabled": true, "chat.editor.preferCopilotHarness": false, "chat.defaultToCopilotHarness": false, This stops Copilot from changing the harness every new chat

Debian-based, but atomic. 🤯 On PhobOS Torizon, you can "apt install" whatever you want in dev mode, commit it with OSTree, deploy it, and roll back if you change your mind. Jetson Orin Nano with Linux v7.2 and U-boot: piped.video/Him03Xcka74

I had bought the Arduino Ventuno, and now trying to set it up, I saw the pinout and then figured out that the serial just works with the "Bughopper USB-to-UART" bridge. I would have liked to receive the Bughopper as a gift instead of the power supply 😢

That's so satisfying; no limits for me. Ok, I need to pay the electricity bill; I had bougth the GPUs, but at least now I can also play games in 4K; an LLM service subscription will not give me that option 😅

@unixterminal maybe you know some MVP that could advocate for this to happen?

Using the new huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen-Ima… running on my two 7900 xtx + xt; "The chicken is a bus driver, and is driving the bus" I started trying 2048x2048 from the documentation, but this was taking more than 15min, so I decreased to 800x800, and it generated in 3min

qwen-image 2.1 can also create RGBA images: 'This is an RGBA image with transparency. A cute cartoon like logo for the "crazy chicken" fried restaurant, it need to have write "CRAZY CHICKEN"'

I wrote another build system to generate reproducible Debian-based Linux distributions. In this blog post, I explain why and compare it to the options that were already available: microhobby.com.br/blog/gaia-…
