  I tried using zoo with qwen3.6 and 2.5 but it failed horrendously. My card could only handle like a 16k context window with those models, and the prompt alone was like 11k.

  Tried opencode and that was fast…but can’t get it to interact with system yet. More playing to do.

  What a timely comment.

  I recently gave my kid a gaming PC for his birthday…which I used as an excuse to upgrade my GPU from a 1660 Super to a 5060ti 16GB

  Combined with a 5600x3d and 32gb of system memory.

  I just started messing with local LLMs yesterday. “Getting started” is rather easy. pacman -S lm-studio (I use arch, btw), launch it, download a model that your hardware supports, and start talking.

  Right now I’m working on getting it to talk to vscode.

  Router is a bunch of old PCs I frankensteined.

  Ended up i5-7500, 8gb mem, 500gb SSD.

  Put in a dual-port SFP+ NIC and a dual port 2.5GbaseT nic.

  One of the 2.5gb ports goes to my cable modem.

  One of the 10gb ports takes Twinax to my dumb LAN switch, the other to my dumb server switch, which right now is really just my storage network…the link to the firewall isn’t doing anytuhing.

  The dumb switches I have here, though, they’ve got some sort of weird MAC learning disability. It cannot handle macflaps, which I found out about because I had a hard time roaming between APs.

  So I got a Netgear GS108T and put OpenWRT on it, and that switches between my APs.

  My APs are Linksys MX4200v1’s. Also openwrt. Got four of them…one upstairs, two in the ground floor, one in the basement. Can get very close to 1Gbps anywhere in the house on wifi. Not the best platform for openwrt (ipq807x), as I’ve found out…but it was a hella cheap deal for tri-band AX APs.

  Valve is probably doing the two most important things in gaming right now:

  • Setting a low-end benchmark for devs to build/optimize games to (“how well does it run on steam deck”)

  • making gaming on Linux more readily available.

  Both are critically needed, but like your other commenter, I would like to see more competition.

  I take it you don’t have kids.

  Taking 10 or 15 minutes to “shit” is a much needed break. Especially when there’s another parent home (or the kids are old enough) and you can shut the door.

  They’ve had some flops…Wii U, DSi, Virtualboy…but they ain’t no game.com. Way more hits than misses in the console realm.
