CodeCompost··on Exllamav2: Inference library for running LLMs locally on consumer-class GPUs
Maybe a stupid question, I'm not familiar with how video ports work, but does the concept of memory swapping exist for video cards? Or is that physically impossible?

Obviously that would be useless for games, but for LLMs it may be an option?

I've tried it out. Right now it seems more of a proof-of-concept than a real-world application. Having said that, the concepts and ideas in there are definitely reusable.

CodeCompost··on For BSD Unix, It's Sayonara (1992)
I don't know what it is about the BSD's. I just keep getting drawn to them, and I don't even use them personally or professionally.

I think it's because they are complete operating systems with their own user-land and complete documentation. Plus the fact that BSD users get excited about little things like when an extra command line switch or a new filesystem flag. All this meticulous attention to detail...
