january 12th raw- no ai
i woke up arround midnight and was in the mood to program, so i setup and got runnign stable diffusion ad started to research how to train models, i used chatgpt3 to aid me with some of my difficulties i refreshed my self on pytrhon code. at about 1 i recived a package for an ssd. i installed arch linux but had dificulties with the installer regarding nvme drives being installed.
i installed the nouveau open source nvidia drivers and arch seamed to work but there were many graphical issues. i eventuially determined that it was the nvidia drivers so i tried reinstalling them but i couldnt figure out why i was in xmode while using the terminal. so i went for the easier option of reinstalling.
i had multiple problems with the nvme drive not letting me install due to difficulties identigying my new drive.
so i ended up taking apprt my case and uninstalled my nvme drive.
and reinstalled, this time i forgot to install the network drivers, but the propriatary drivers worked significantly better atleast.
so i tried arch_chroot to reinstall them via the usbkey and it worked.
i thought it would be interesting to try the xorg varient of teh desktop so i did.
i made sure to use the propriatary drivers this time and everything went well. and im still uisng it on the
the reason i was installing arch that day was because i had been running stable diffusion, an opensource locally run varient of Dall-E, with custom training data sets locally on my 3060 12gb and was unsatisfied with the overhead in windows with my gpu's performence. so all that day i was programing and refining models and refreshing myself on python and reviewing code for python and arch linux because i knew a package containing a portable usb c ssd would arrive, i wanted to run linux but i was quite unsure of which distro i wanted to do, but a friend sammy recommend me to try it because of how you can fine-tune your settings. also because i had been messing arround with rhel, ubuntu, linux mint and other distros. so i gave it a try in a vm and it seamed easy enough to use, little did i know that days's dificulties yet to come
