I tried the 26B searching for a product to buy from a photo. It did significantly worse than Qwen 3.5 35B as well as 9B. It seems like it did not recognize the item from the photo too well. Another search from text also did worse. It told me how to look it up myself. Qwen gave me a full list of prices and stores, sorted by price.

Find the cheapest WD SN850X 2TB on sale in Canada.

Gemma 4 26B

To find the cheapest WD SN850X 2TB on sale in Canada, I recommend checking the following retailers, as prices for SSDs fluctuate frequently due to sales and stock:

1. PCPartPicker Canada: This is your best tool. It aggregates prices from multiple Canadian retailers (like Canada Computers, Memory Express, Amazon.ca, etc.) and will show you exactly which one is currently the cheapest.
2. Canada Computers: Often runs sales on NVMe drives.
3. Amazon.ca: Frequently has competitive pricing, especially during Prime Day or seasonal sales.

Pro-tip: When checking, ensure you are looking at the 2TB model specifically, as the 1TB and 4TB versions are often listed in the same search results. Always check if the price includes shipping to your location in Canada.

Qwen 3.5 35B

Based on my search, I found the WD Black SN850X 2TB NVMe SSD at several Canadian retailers. Here are the current prices:

Price Comparison:

Best Deal: Newegg.ca - $499.97

The cheapest option is Newegg.ca at $499.97 with free shipping. This is sold directly by Newegg with their standard return policy.

Product Details:

• Model: WD_BLACK SN850X 2TB NVMe SSD (WDS200T2X0E)
• Interface: PCIe 4.0 x4, NVMe
• Form Factor: M.2 2280
• Max Read Speed: Up to 7,300 MB/s
• Max Write Speed: Up to 6,600 MB/s
• Warranty: 5-year limited warranty

Other Considerations:

• If you’re comfortable with open box items, Canada Computers has it for $683.99 (but this is still more expensive than Newegg)
• All prices are in CAD and include free shipping

Newegg.ca appears to have the best current deal for a brand new WD SN850X 2TB SSD in Canada. Prices can change quickly, so I recommend checking the site directly for the most up-to-date pricing.

So for peasants running Chairman Xi’s LLMs on local GPUs, we could try the largest model we can run and have it generate scripts to run instead of having the model do the actual processing of bulk data, to get more out of it.

Yeah, this appears to be entirely a product of the masaive spending on pro-fossil fuel propaganda seeping through Republican media channels.

In the laundry room inside the unit.

That’s a pretty good way to save the usability of the footprint btw. Might use it if I have to free up the laundry.

I’d think staying silent would achieve this goal.

Very interesting.

No question.

I think the US has been significantly worse than Russia over the last century if not more. They’ve been in various capacities in Vietnam, Korea, Phillipines, Panama, Cuba, and those are just the ones off the top of my head. Read about their colonial, commercial and other wars as well as their regime change ops that has brought countless right-wing dictators around the world, that have killed shit ton of people.

Oh yeah, I see that in the graph now.

Government spending on R&D in China increased by 90% to US$133 billion in the decade leading up to 2023, according to the most recent purchasing-power-adjusted data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). By contrast, in the United States, spending rose by just 12%, to $155 billion.

I think they’re not taking into account PPP. China is very likely spending more on science in PPP terms which is what really matters.

Nice. So basically listening to your built-in feeling of fairness and decency instead of stomping it.

Felt any class consciousness appearing or not yet?

What was the thing that made leftism click for you?

Nah, sell at high price without giving up production control to US interests. Use the money to strenghten defence and improve Venezuelans material conditions. Make it exceedingly difficult for the US to repeat kidnappings.

Missing from the meme is DJT asking Dada Xi for help.

Shitposting from under the bridge in the Canadian winter sucks so wage labour it is.

Here it’s us, real people rage-baiting you on employer time!

Sounds almost like we work for the same company. 😂 Perhaps they all lifted this statement from the same consultancy contractor.

Am in automotive and there’s definitely some of that. Much more so than in other industries I’ve worked. With that said, it’s a losing battle against the value proposition of AI. We’re getting AI use mandated on us.
