I am specifically looking for something to handle books, some of them have large sizes (around 50 MB).

OpenAi released two open models, >openai/gpt-oss-20b >openai/gpt-oss-120b https://openai.com/open-models/ You can try them using ollama https://ollama.com At this point it's better to get started with local models somehow so let's begin.

I want to learn about Shell Scripting Basics, Shell Variables, Shell Script Arguments, If Statement, Loop, Return, Basic UNIX commands. Where should I go to. Would be pleasant if y'all could give a run through basics of it. I had always used windows so very new to unix/linux and know zilch about them.

Libre Thinkpads

I found a site selling libre thinkpads with blob free coreboot, debian and wireless cards in India. A little too expensive for the devices they are selling but cheaper compared to importing one from purism or think penguin. No idea why they are not using libreboot or trisquel instead. Not personally a free software extremist but just posting in case any anons might be interested. https://mostlyharmless.io/computers/#models

Most people have no idea how powerful computers have become, and that too in such a less amount of time, like just 10 years ago the CPUs, GPUs, RAMs, SSDs available in the market were literally gorillion times slower than the ones available now. It's a tragedy that all that power is being spent on interwebz brainrot (social media, porn etc), the only reason we don't have intergalactic space travel rn is because of social and political reasons, technology is already there. Imagine if Banks and Governments spen 5T$ on next gen Computers instead of feeding illiterate low IQ subhumans. All Science and Engineering problems are nothing but Computation problems.

Give some novice ideas to which I can bring to fruition for my thesis. I had only copied projects from youtube and friends in B.tech So I don't know much about web development. Please refrain from cliche projects, it's a thesis. In my 1st sem I did an ML project, so I am more comfortable in AI/ML domain.

Currently i am using gpt. But i assume it's only good at wordcelling, not logical problems. Which AI chatbots are the best out of chatgpt, gemini, deepseek,? Like best to worst with regard to coding, problem solving, Maths and reasoning. Google is offering gemini AI pro free to students for an year. Should I take the hassle to do the formalities of redeeming this offer or should I continue with ChatGPT.

Anyone interested in Database as a Service. Like you don't need to create a server and db. Just use my website and with one click create a table. You will get a link where you can GET/POST/DELETE the data in table. You will just have to create a frontend and call the API from there. Thats it , no backend chikcik. But I'm stuck at one thing. How would I prevent spam. As the links can be seen through network tab , anyone can make request to them. Chatgpt was not helpful. Anyone can brainstorm on this , would be great.

Anyone interested in image storage as a service? 1. Instead of you handling image , you send the image to my given api. www.abc.com/upload 2. I store it , and return you the file name. eg : diddy.jpg. If nsfw I tell you in response. 3. You store the image name. 4. In your site you get the image using eg : www.abc.com/image/diddy.jpg

i am just learning frontend now, so what do you guys think is better to do first write js logic for responsiveness or develop UI first like a basic display just so that we can figure and test things out when js logic doesnt work.

“A chorus of voices exhorts kids to study science. No one stops to ask whether it is inhumane to force adolescents to spend the bulk of their time studying subjects most of them hate. When skilled workers are put out of a job by technical advances and have to undergo “retraining,” no one asks whether it is humiliating for them to be pushed around in this way. It is simply taken for granted that everyone must bow to technical necessity, and for good reason: If human needs were put before technical necessity there would be economic problems, unemployment, shortages or worse. The concept of “mental health” in our society is defined largely by the extent to which an individual behaves in accord with the needs of the system and does so without showing signs of stress.” ― Theodore J. Kaczynski, Industrial Society and Its Future

What bot should I use /g/? I feel like I am late in the show and don't want to be left out. I have huge concerns about giving away my data though. Anything privacy oriented? Use mainly for looking into questions about topics (technology or otherwise) that are too specific to ask anywhere else.
