Folks allegedly running Llama4 and getting 25+ tokens/sec on a 3090 and shitloads of RAM
Literally a $2.5k setup to run a top model and acceptable speeds
Yea L4 was kind of a flop but MoE looks like the future and is the most accessible architecture for self hosting right now

Do grounded bedsheets do anything? do they increase testosterone or other quality of life/performance metrics?
<PubMed+Claude runs for a while>
Based on the available scientific research, here's what we know about grounded/earthing bedsheets and their effects:
1. Sleep Effects:
- A 2024 study in rats found that using an earthing mat for 21 days significantly:
- Reduced wake time
- Increased REM sleep
- Increased NREM sleep
- Increased total sleep time
- The effects were better than a regular electronic blanket
2. Biological Mechanisms:
- Earthing appears to work through several pathways:
- Decreases orexin (a wake-promoting neurotransmitter) in the brain
- Increases SOD (superoxide dismutase), an important antioxidant enzyme
- May promote alpha wave activity in the brain, associated with relaxation
3. Other Reported Benefits:
- Various studies have suggested potential effects on:
- Inflammation reduction
- Pain management
- Stress reduction
- Overall mood improvement
4. Testosterone Specifically:
- There is no direct scientific evidence showing that grounded bedsheets affect testosterone levels
- No controlled studies have specifically measured testosterone changes with grounding
5. Quality of Evidence:
- Most studies are relatively small
- Many are animal studies rather than human trials
- More rigorous research is needed to confirm benefits
- Some studies have potential conflicts of interest with manufacturers
Conclusion:
While there is some promising evidence that grounded bedsheets may improve sleep quality and have anti-inflammatory effects, claims about testosterone or specific performance metrics are not well-supported by current research. The strongest evidence points to potential benefits for sleep quality and reduction of inflammation through antioxidant pathways. Anyone interested in trying grounded bedsheets should maintain realistic expectations and view them as a potential sleep aid rather than a hormone or performance enhancer.
Having a pimped out MCP server is going to be a status symbol
It feels like the internet slowed down the last few days.
Not like download speed I mean less things happening.
The LLM forums have like no new posts (or they're dogshit)
Massive raise, SATs on sale, please Satoshi last until payday

I got my sister to download strike and sent her some bitcoin and her reaction was literally "why would I want this?"
Like bish it's money why would you want money?
I lowkey think the saylor money glitch will break fiat
I'm surprised how quickly I got accustomed to the price change. 98k did almost nothing for me.
Are the OGs just callous to it? Like would any new ATH even register?
Liberals literally think the worlds ending and there's no hope
At least that's what they say, they don't really act like it
Must be mad depressing still
They don't know bitcoin is forever money or that the universe created them and loves them
