I run llms using a 780m you’ll be fine. I get pretty close to 10 tokens a second for larger 20B+ models.

I picked up a pixel 8 pro to replace my 6 pro.

No way! I am totally shocked! /s

Nfc payments keep me chained. I guess i can get a second phone just for setting up a watch, but i don’t want a watch. So i live by not using the default launcher and a vpn. I’m working to change my email provider slowly

are you using subtitle edit to generate the subtitle (srt) files? that’s what i use, it’s not horrible… but work.
