  • For the life of me can’t remember the scores I was getting on gpt4all. But given that you tried it I’m guessing you’ll most likely take a liking to LM studio or perhaps jan.ai. both GUI tools. If the lack open source bothers you go for Jan.ai, if not then go LM studio. LM studio in particular allows for full and partial GPU offloading. So if you have a semi capable but not quite enough vram on it you can load part of the model on the GPU to speed up inference. As a side note pure CPU on my old ryzen 1600 I was looking at 6/it. Which isn’t all that much but glass half full its still faster than the average typing speed and takes the load off of having to think about how to creatively word things




  • There’s a lot of things it affects. But lets stick with the self serving perspective of your question “How does this affect* me buying discounted games”. You personally? Not much, the impact is relatively tame… for now. An aspect that you failing to consider is that devs could raise price of games to offset the cost of the Unity price model change. Sure you could wait for a discount. Safe to say we all appreciate a good discount every now and again. But I encourage you think about that “one” game on your wishlist “If it was just 20% less then I would buy it” But that 20% doesn’t end up happening because of the fact that even during this hypothetical sale the devs are still trying to offset the Unity cost. Additionally you failing to consider is that Unity is an incredibly popular starting point for many new devs because of the tooling it has available, many popular titles were started by these indie devs. Games that wouldn’t ever have been created because those people wouldn’t have ever gotten started if they didn’t use Unity.
