@off_grid_living There are probably many extensions for Apache2. Nearly all of which you don't need. Maybe libapache2-mod-php* if you want to make use of PHP.
Typically, systemd will automatically start your webserver during system startup. Your package manager (apt) does not prompt you, because the package maintainer has chosen some defaults for you which works with the rest of the system. So there is simply no need. Why would you want to change the installation directory anyways?
Also, right after installation, I'd assume that Apache2 is automatically started. If you want to start Apache2 by hand, you can sudo systemctl start apache2, there are also the stop and restart verbs.
The tutorial linked by @prologic seems a bit outdated to me (old Ubuntu version and SysVInit), you might be better off with: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/how-to-install-apache2 Even though, that's probably also not so beginner-friendly.
@prologic Yeah, paid. If not even big IT companies offer more, I will not emmigrate to Down Under. ;-)

i have finished porting my laptop config to nixos in record time. i did the entire rebuild in one day, only a handful of hours total. love it.

just some "training" in the humidity and such trying to keep it in the blue zone. frustrating! felt fine though.

@falsifian Can't argue with the some of the feats we've achieved for sure 😅 I think some of the good stuff is in smarter auto completion: summarization and pattern reproduction.
But "intelligent" it ain't 🤣

@prologic I don't know what you mean when you call them stochastic parrots, or how you define understanding. It's certainly true that current language models show an obvious lack of understanding in many situations, but I find the trend impressive. I would love to see someone achieve similar results with much less power or training data.
@falsifian I don't believe so. But then again we'd have to define what cognitive understanding really is 😅 LLM(s) have none.

@stigatle @prologic Wow, that's surprising. Assuming a full time job, you are legally entitled to at least 20 days annual leave in Germany. Some companies even offer 30, esp. when in a union. I don't know how many companies actually do, but in my circle of friends and acquaintances, nearly everyone has 30 days paid vacation. I somehow thought it's very similar in Scandinavia and Australia.
Oh boy, the week is already over and I haven't accomplished much useful stuff when I look back on it. Gotta check the vacation calendars of my workmates tomorrow and take one or the other week off soon.
@prologic I thought "stochastic parrot" meant a complete lack of understanding.
@movq That's a tough one. Maybe drones and cameras. They make for greater videos to watch online (no, I don't have any of that). Not to forget high-speed internet, that's sloooowly getting rolled out.
@off_grid_living A gamer will not necessarily become a programmer. Especially these days I'd say.
@off_grid_living Hmm, but why is regular dirt not good enough for the hens outside?
Yeah, like with everything, quality has its price.

Pinellas County - Long Run: 7.58 miles, 00:11:16 average pace, 01:25:22 duration
not as long as i would have liked. got a late start because, well, i was enjoying the sleep! then i saw at 0500 the rain was not scheduled anymore so i slept in. then it rained!
so this run was hot, no cloud cover, 90% RH and about 90F. it was brutal. but overall had to cut it short due to shivers all over the body. i was not going to push it when i may be overheating.

@off_grid_living Is there a particular reason why you run it through wine? And not the 'standard' ubuntu way of doing it? It'll make it much easier to make sure things are working the way it should.. :)
@prologic During summer - yes, since our kids have 2 months. First month of their vacation I still work, then I join them on their last month. We do have 5 weeks, so I save the last week for around Christmas. :)
@off_grid_living So tou mean wine? The windows emulator?
You don't need to use wine to run Apache.
It should be installable from the package manager (software center) or whatever it's called.

LLMs though, whilst good at understating the "model" (or shape) of things (not just natural language), are generally still stochastic parrots.

@falsifian It's also astonishing how much power these things use and how incredibly inefficient they are 🤣
But seriously though we have come a long way in _some_ machine learning sxiwnde and twxh and we've managed to build ever more powerful and power hungry massively parallel matrix computational hardware 😅

@movq The success of large neural nets. People love to criticize today's LLMs and image models, but if you compare them to what we had before, the progress is astonishing.

@stigatle Very nice! 👌 I've enjoyed your photos and stories of your trips!
Do you normally take 4-week long vacations all in one go?

@movq There are drivers and such for linux as well. I also think it works fine with steamVR on linux (But currently my main computer for gaming is running windows) so I have not tested VR on linux yet. I am planning on installing linux on that machine when I get a extra disk for it soon. (I run linux on all other laptops I have, but those are not good enough for VR stuff).
@stigatle That’s all on Windows, I guess? It does sound really interesting/tempting, though. 😲 I’ve only briefly toyed with a coworkers VR thingy ~10 years ago and it was rather clunky back then. That probably has improved a lot.~

@movq @prologic @aelaraji , yeah, I have one. First one I bought was the first oculus on kickstarter. Then facebook delivered their first (after they bought oculus) on my doorstep for free (since I backed the first oculus on kickstarter). I use it a lot, especially for Xplane (flight sim) and Elite: Dangerous etc. It's not one of those quest standalone VR headsets I have, it's the one you hook up to a computer.
4 week vacation time is done tomorrow, then it's back to work. A bit excited to see what happens there for the rest of the year, a bit stressfull too, but It'll be nice to get back to work. This summer vacation has been super nice, and also felt like it lasted long. Been a super time with my family, we got to visit a lot of cool places, and went on a lot of trips etc. Been really nice. And we've already planned what to do next year - so I already look forward to that :)
