linux firsts

i came across the linux timeline in wikipedia and learned that there are three major distros(distributions) where most of them came from.
ubuntu, KNOPPIX and gibraltar are some of the distros that were based from debian. i would say it's a cross between slackware and redhat - and that's based from some of my research. i just dont have time to post details

madriva, fedora and the "philippines distro" bayanihan are based from redhat. a very corporate feel and stable distro if you ask me

slackware, which was the basis of openSuSE and vector, is a hobbyist distro basing from its history. althought, its support and community are as stable.

Wrestling with an Old Acer Laptop to Install ALBERT—And Winning!

You know that feeling when you take an old, battle-worn laptop and make it do something it was never meant to handle? That’s exactly what we did when we decided to install ALBERT (A Lite BERT) on an aging Acer laptop. If you’ve ever tried deep learning on old hardware, you’ll understand why this was part engineering challenge, part act of stubborn defiance. The Challenge: ALBERT on a Senior Citizen of a Laptop The laptop in question? A dusty old Acer machine (N3450 2.2 GHz, 4gb ram), still running strong (well, kind of) but never meant to handle modern AI workloads. The mission? Get PyTorch, Transformers, and ALBERT running on it—without CUDA, because, let’s be real, this laptop’s GPU is more suited for Minesweeper than machine learning. Step 1: Clearing Space (Because 92% Disk Usage Ain’t It) First order of business: making room. A quick df -h confirmed what we feared—only a few gigabytes of storage left. Old logs, forgotten downloads, and unnecessary packages were sent to digita...

long time no see

it has been a while since i've posted. a lot of things has changed and since i got a pc again i would say i'm back on track. a little polishing here and there would be appropriate. not to mention a little maturity would do a lot of good. so let's open the store, make some good changes, and push hard. i really don't know what i'm talking about since its already 4am and i'm quite dizzy. i just hope and pray that i'll know what i have to do. cheers! btw: for now, thinking of creating a logo, getting into graphics, using inkscape for graphics and gimp for photo manipulation and hoping i'll do justice. ps: darn't i need to know how to type without looking at the keyboard!
