    Won't that be expensive?

    Yeah, That would be more than I could afford but a man can dream.

    If you have a PC at home, you could always use that!
    Or use CPU only processing! :neutral:

    I've done that. Mostly use colab pro account currently for training and generating. I need to explore more services like runpod. CPU is just too slow. I do have some neural network scripts that run fine on raspberry Pi.

    How, I love raspberries pies!

    Never had one, but, would love to.

    Delicious.

    I meant the SBC Pi! :lol:

    Is it tasty though?

    I have personally been using CPU only for training a TTS model, and it isn't as slow as I'd imagined but having watched videos of people doing it with GPUs and the speed at which they complete, I am convinced GPU is much better. Moreover, there are processed which would even deny processing without a GPU

    You making a TTS model? Cool!
    Also, why not use Google Colab for training of the models?

    That's a good suggestion.

    Can't trust Google with raw voice data as I mentioned to Bas.

    Yeah, true like I said, can keep them from using it.

    Yah, I remember your workplace Gemini sub right?

    Kinda like that yes. Don't wanna give them too much info, specially not when paying for their gig.

    So I'm just wrapping up a few things before bed and I noticed

    https://youtube.com/watch?v=RIdOHTCVS9c

    For me, it's 05:00 when it goes live lmao

    Around 9AM Dec 13 for me

    Nice

    I am guessing you won't be able to attend it live then. It was around the same time the chef arrived this year as well

    Nope. I won't be watching it live

    Yah, would be too early for you given its a weekday

    Yeah. And even if it would be during the weekend, I would still not watch it live. Way too early for me

    How about if it was at a time elater in the day?

    Hmm. Maybe. Probably around 10 AM or later would be better for me

    I understand.

    So do I

    Unfortunately, the time for that is set.

    Too bad, I'll live though.

    Yah, you definitely will. You sirvived meteors.

    Spot on. I can handle whatever comes next.. well prepared.

    Not actually sure about having raw voice data online. Actually, I learned about this only recently, and naturally, I got curious.

    As long as it stays there though :lol:

    True :)

    Don't trust them, even if I had that subscription that prevented them from using my data.

    I trust noone. Except for my rat bruthah.

    I am thinking something similar to what Runpod does. Maybe something that can also be rented at an hourly rate.

    Hourly billing! :)

    Yah, sites like Runpod enable you to choose machines with a particular GPU depending on your use purpose and run your code on there for an hourly rate. For additional payment, you also get persistent storage, unlike colab

    I use it at times.

    How much do you generally spend on a monthly basis?

    A whole lot of money probably. Not sure but it adds up.

    Yah, that's for sure.

    Oh well... Glad I'm not responsible for the finances :)

    I am always here. Just slowed down since the past few days. Taking care of my health as well

    Omnipresent

    Not for long. Prioritising my health.

    Good . That smart!

    Sure it is. Trying to prioritise my health over anything else, except maybe the gaming PC.

    That ain't prioritising my man.

    Yeah! Tho gpu's are still a bit expensive imo. But that's just in general, not specific to runpod

    I believe Runpod instances with GPUs can be rented at less than $3 an hour. Not sure how the prices are gonna change with GPU inflation though.

    Going up I'm afraid. But not too soon.

    Yah, experts say 2026 is the year for that.

    Yeah gonna be a massacre!

    Yah, PC building dreams are gone, atleast for the next 2 years, from what the forecasts are presently. But, it will be much worse than expected for sure.

    Well see. Glad I'm not planning on building one.

    Wow, just realised USPS has implemented end to end tracking now. So, international parcels don't stop tracking as soon as they leave US. BTW, @PuDLeZ and @DaDeveloper, got your backpacks yet?

    Just got it!

    Finally in the backpack club!

    (she was napping and I kind of just propped the backpack on her without warning :lol: )

    Woah! This one looks badass! I believe this is the newer model. This one would double as a rider backpack and adventurer as well. I will be receiving mine in a week or so, I guess. Once it reaches, I will share an image as well

    I also won a mug giveaway which was shipped at the same time. Originally it was supposed to be here yesterday (along with the backpack). It arrived at the same time as the backpack, departed the first post office at the same time, but then for that I have

    Dec 09
    12:00 am
    In Transit to Next Facility, Arriving Late

    Dec 05
    5:24 pm
    Arrived at USPS Regional Origin Facility
    CITY OF INDUSTRY CA DISTRIBUTION CENTER

    Oh, I see. Usually, he couples the packages. I guess you won these on different days, I mean the difference between days was more than a week or so.
    BTW, how's the bag? I am loving the new model's design.

    You just never know with international shipping could also be due to different package size.

    No, pudlez is in the USA. Mine would be international

    Oh I see... Strange

    How though?

    It every kind of way.

    It's subjective, I guess.

    You're right, it is.

    Not that's a fluffy guy!

    That is my definition of fluffy. Don't you find sea lions to be cute?

    Yes, unless they're clubbed. Then they just messy.

    Confused, we talking about the backpack and the mug now or the sealion? :lol:

    Sealion. I'd think it's gets rather bloody when clubbed.

    Prolly. Well, in the wild, it's always the survival of the fittest.

    Yeah, well not always. Like us Dino's

    Outsourcing now? Or, are we talking about the intern Carolyn? She seems nice :lol:

    More internship and some minecraft after that
