  • You can’t disable secure boot if you want to use your Nvidia GPU :( though. [edit2: turns out this is a linux mint thing, not the case in Debian or Fedora]

    Edit: fine, there may be workarounds and for other distros everything is awesome, but in mint and possibly Ubuntu and Debian for a laptop 2022 RTX3060 you need to set up your MOK keys in secure mode to be able to install the Nvidia drivers, outside secure mode the GPU is simply locked. I wasn’t even complaining, there is a way to get it working, so that’s fine by me. No need to tell me that I was imagining things.






  • Considering that training is extracting the main features of a dataset, there is always some data that is discarded as “noise” in the process, then when data is generated, that discarded information is filled back with actual random noise to partially replicate the original data.

    Iterate and you’re going to end up with progressively less meaningful features. I just didn’t expect it to take only 5 iterations, that’s a lot of feature loss in training even with so many parameters.
