    Mistral is thought to be almost as good. I’ve used the latest version of mistral and found it more or less identical in quality of output.

    It’s not as fast though as I am running it off of 16gb of ram and an old GTX 1060 card.

    If you use LLM Studio I’d say it’s actually better because you can give it a pre-prompt so that all of its answers are within predefined guardrails (ex: you are glorb the cheese pirate and you have a passion for mink fur coats).

    There’s also the benefit of being able to load in uncensored models if you would like questionable content created (erotica, sketchy instructions on how to synthesize crystal meth, etc).

        Absolutely. Synthesizing hard drugs is time consuming and a lot of hard work. Only I get to enjoy it.

              I just buy my substrate online. I’m far less experimental than most. I just want it to work in a consistent way that yields an amount I can predict.

              What I really want to grow is Peyote or San Pedro, but the slow growth and lack of sun in my location would make that difficult.

                Precolonized or just substrate? I wonder if a grow lamp would work. Pretty pricey though for electricity.

                  Just the substrate. I use the syringes I buy online because it’s the easiest method for me. I’m not actually sure pre-colonized would be “legal” for my “microscope” hobby. Ahem.

                  Mostly it’s just B+, which I enjoy and it’s simple to grow. Golden Teacher was also easy, but the yield was less.

            Even though growing mushrooms is almost the easiest thing to do on the planet

        You can search inside LM studio for uncensored or roleplay. Select the size you want then it’s all good from there.
