What’s to stop an employer from hiring someone, paying them a few bucks an hour and calling them “volunteers”?
Because most likely would not find volunteers that are ok being paid approx. 170euro a month. Also I think this setting is only applicable to foundations and associations.
Second that. yunohost is perfect for all in one self hosting solution for small groups. As for hardware requirenments, for 10 peeps you could get away with any VPS (then based on the needs you can check if to upgrade). If you want to self-host on your own hardware most likely a minipc like Hp’s prodesk with 16-32GB RAM would do.
Interesting. Is there a non-apple solution like this?
is the mac mini really that good? running 12-14b models on my radeon rx 7600xt is ok’ish but i do “feel it” while running 7-8b models sometimes just doesn’t feel enough. I wonder where does mac mini land in here.
Wow! very cool rack you got there. I too started using mini pcs for local test servers or general home servers. But unlike yours mine are just dumped behind the screen on my desk (3 in total). For LLM stuff atm I use 16GB radeon but thats connected to my desktop. In the future I would love to build a proper rack like yours and perhaps move the GPU to a dedicated minipc.
As for the upgrades, like what others stated already, I would just go for more pc’s rather then rpi.
This is great. I have couple of those HP machines which are awesome but was just stacking them on my desk. 10 inch rack will be great for them. Need to do some hunting.
Yes and that’s why volunteer fees are nowhere near minimum wage. It’s basically a way to compensate all sort of volunteers helping out non-profits. IMO it’s quite a good system and more of a symbolic then a real pay.
