Yeah, incredibly frustrating.
The only acknowledgement is from a volunteer mod on reddit that said an hour ago that "the team is aware and the status page will be updated shortly".

The fact I had to dig around to find that is really not a pleasing experience.

~~Their systems currently report that everything's fine, which - to be fair - could be a misreporting and change at any moment~~
~~Anecdotally all their landing sites load fine for me~~

~~Tackling it from the other side: could it be a problem with your DNS?~~
~~Did you try with another network? Like wifi or mobile data~~

~~EDIT: Formatting~~

EDIT: Tried again and now the email service seems to not be loading

EDIT 2: It is being reported on other sites too, but currently there's nothing official I could find, not even on their Mastodon or Twitter various accounts

EDIT 3: On reddit the volunteer mod alex_herrero wrote an hour ago that "The team is aware and [the] status page will be updated shortly".

I've read good things about LTX, but I've never used it.

You'll die, just make it matter

That's the bad thing about social media. If no one was doing it before, someone is now!

Jokes aside it's possible, but with the current LLMs I don't think there's really a need for something like that.

Malicious actors usually try to spend the least amount of effort possibile for generalized attacks, because you end up having to often restart when found out.

So they probably just feed an LLM with some examples to get the tone right and prompt it in a way that suits their uses.

You can generate thousands of posts while Lemmy hasn't even started to reply to one.

If you instead want to know if anyone is taking all the comments on lemmy to feed to some model training.. Yeah, of course they are. Federation makes it incredibly easy to do.

Probably I'm missing something but I've read the parent comment as a way to highlight the hypocrisy behind making extensive use of something while, simultaneously, wanting to bar others from using it

I don't see an insult in there, given the choice of words and the context, but maybe I'm missing something fundamental?

Hangs, reboots or does it turn off? Depending on that it could be a plethora of things.

Do you get any error prompts? Any red alerts when restarting?

Did you check that the monitor works steadily on another system/OS?

Did you try another DE, even on a live usb?

Is the HDD/SSD healthy?

Are all the fans working? Is it the thermal protection?

Is the PSU healthy and or the power connection damaged?

Does your system have a centralized logging like journalctl or can you reach the single log files to check and add more information?

It could literally be anything, even aliens.

Technically speaking, AFAIK, it is some years now that Ariane has started a project about a partially reusable rocket

EDIT: Reading the article I think it is the same project? I assume I'm misreading your comment

I assumed it was a shitpost, instead it is a real tweet. What a time to be alive.

Jokes aside the only real reason I can fathom for the collectibles company to call their mother is because they had used it as the contact number in the registry. I would be surprised if this was some kind of intimidation tactic instead of just miscommunication - in the sense they probably just wanted to legally intimidate the itch's owner not their immediate family. They are not 2K ^/s^.

AFAIK it is still a tuning of llama 3[.1], the new Base models will come with the release of 4 and the "Training Data" section of both the model cards is basically a copy paste.

Honestly I didn't even consider the fact they would not be giving Base models anymore before reading this post and, even now, I don't think this is the case. I went to search the announcements posts to see if there was something that could make me think about it being a possibility, but nothing came out.

It is true that they released Base models with 3.2, but there they had added a new projection layer on top of that, so the starting point was actually different. And 3.1 did supersede 3...

So I went and checked the 3.3 hardware section and compare it with the 3 one, the 3.1 one and the 3.2 one.

|3 | 3.1 | 3.2 | 3.3 | |

| | 7.7M GPU hours | 39.3M GPU hours | 2.02M GPU hours | 39.3M GPU hours |

So yeah, I'm pretty sure the base of 3.3 is just 3.1 and they just renamed the model in the card and added the functional differences. The instruct and base versions of the models have the same numbers in the HW section, I'll link them at the end just because.

All these words to say: I've no real proof, but I will be quite surprised if they will not release the Base version of 4.
