AI Journey 1977 to 2025: Part 2 of 5 - IRC Bots, Beowulf Clusters, and Distributed Computing on Commodity Hardware
-
This is Part 2 of a 5-part series documenting the technical evolution from early introduction to role-playing gaming in 1977 and hobby programming in 1979 to modern distributed GPU computing and self-hosted Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure. The series traces patterns that emerged over four decades and shows how they apply to current challenges in AI development and computational independence. This part focuses on scaling patterns from single systems to networks and building production infrastructure on commodity hardware.

AI Journey 1977-2025: Part 5 of 5 - SIIMPAF - Four Decades of Technology Lessons in One System
-
This is Part 5 of a 5-part series documenting the technical evolution from early introduction to role-playing gaming in 1977 and hobby programming in 1979 to modern distributed GPU computing and self-hosted Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure.
The series traces patterns that emerged over four decades and shows how they apply to current challenges in AI development and computational independence.
This final part brings together four decades of lessons in DGPUNET's, AILCPH's, & SIIMPAF's architecture, explaining how patterns from 1979 remain relevant in 2025.

Alesis LineLink Dual 1/4" to USB Cable working under Suse Linux 12.1
-
To get working under Linux, it auto detects as a USB C-Media device. Under Windows or Mac you have to enable it after it autoloads the PnP drivers, the same applies to a linux setup as well...

Alienware M11x R2 with Open Suse 64 bit
-
I recently updated my Alienware by installing Suse 11.4 (& 12.1). As usual, I did not attempt to upgrade the existing 11.3 install, but instead performed a fresh install. Here is some information on what was necessary to make everything work as best as possible with this combination.
