Poor nVidia Jetson, you did great for the last 5 years.

Managed to fry the eMMC by shorting pins, it looks like.

Note for future self: fully enclose boards with tight spaces.

Bug: "It was made for me! Th- This is my funhole!"

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Hi, is this bug still available?

[–] kashifshah@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Haha, yes, it actually is available at this time.

I can package it up and send it to you for informational purposes, but please don’t attempt to recreate the bug, as we have all seen the Reanimator, haven’t we?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I was just gonna dip it in chocolate and eat it, but okay..

😂🤣

Gross.

Sauté it in a little garlic butter and then we're talking.

no, am i not supposed to mention nVidia?

[–] pmjv@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Just saying that I never heard about nVidia Jetson up until today and now I have purchased it to upgrade my robowife.

[–] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Same, never heard of them, but I'm not seeing an obvious use case. What are they useful for?

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

It's pretty good for AI tasks at the edge, e.g. fully local image recognition.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 4 months ago

I'm edging right now just thinking about it

[–] recklessengagement@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Ahh gotcha, similar to Google's Coral? Neat.

I've recently been looking into locally hosting some LLMs for various purposes, I haven't specced out hardware yet. Any good resources you can recommend?

Kind of, it's a standalone system with the hardware integrated - kinda like Google Coral with a Raspberry Pi.

Not really, sorry - I haven't gone too deep into LLMs beyond simple use cases. I've only really used llama.cpp myself.

A dedicated NVIDIA GPU in a random x86 pc is a lot faster and more price efficient than a Jetson.

If it isn't about the form factor the Jetson is not a great contender.

Ah, gotcha - the Jetson devices are definitely robowife capable lol. I suspect it is mostly used for things like AI enabled electronic devices, but it is possible to use ROS for robotics!

you are very welcome! i’ll see what i can do about creating more, but this one had me laughing out loud once i figured out why the jetson wouldn’t boot anymore heh

like something out of a history book :D
