Absolutely. My favourite chair is on its third repair. There’s a story in keeping it going.

♡ That’s what communities are for.

Lately I have been running smaller open-source language models locally on my Mac mini using Ollama alongside my usual cloud tools like Claude and ChatGPT. Having a model run completely offline on your own hardware is great for privacy and quick coding or dictation tasks when your internet connection acts up. The tradeoff is that big models eat up RAM fast. Has anyone else here experimented with running local AI tools on their own PC, or do you prefer sticking strictly to browser-based chatbots?
