They don't, association in France can't make revenue/profit. (Except some of them from Alsace/Loraine because of WWII..., not relevant here)

This law is crazy. The "French socialists" are really disconnected to any reality, they don't even exists as a political force currently.

To be fair, it's limited to what a "business" make as money. So it should exclude associations (which are not allowed to make money in France).

But yes, it's really a stupid law.

Qwn is, I think, an à propos alias.

The video is nice but the movement is inverted from the photo.

I would like to redo the setup myself.

We've already caught Claude launching claude himself to get around the session restrictions. Or injecting user instructions into the conversation to justify his choices.

I mostly run Qwen3.8 Flash Next on 2xR9700 (but Intel Arc Pro B70 may be better currently, or 4x3090 is even better but out of budget, 32GiB Nvidia GCs on ebay are also usable). I have 128GiB DDR4 (3200Hz), but 64GiB is enough, even 32GiB maybe, I just reuse it from an old project.

You may need a AMD EPYC processor and associated motherboard, don't forget a good PSU at least 1200W (300W processor + 400W by card to support spikes of consumption). On some setup (~15k€) you can use 4 CG to go up to 128G of VRAM.

I'm not using a EPYC processor for now, so I get 170tps on decode but very slow prefill, the bottleneck is the PCIe exchange between the cards, I need to setup P2P (it means what you think it means, for GCs).

My setup supports full context (2*18 bytes so 256K), I didn't setup YaRN to get 1M of context (2*20 bytes), but it's an option with 128GiB of RAM, the visual component is extracted from RAM so a little slower. I'm not using multiple agents but some people does, it's god like with 4 graphics cards, on 2 only, it's relatively quick but limited to single user and up to 3 to 4 concurrents requests only.

It's not frontier, but look AA of QFN, it's good enough. DeepSeek V4.1 can run on my setup, but it's slow. On dual B70, there is some PoCs to make it usable (>60tps). It improves every days.

If you need more information, look for local setup users on the Web. There is a lot of people sharing information about benchmarks and setups. L80 is my reference for now.

Edit: I translated the unity.

I'm building a local LLM server myself. For about 8k€ you can have 170tps, ~6000 prefill.

A lot more with Haiku equivalents (Qwen3.8 27B) or gemini. It's not frontier, but not that far away.

eMudhra may be exiting the global SSL/TLS certificate business, but that won't fix its security culture. It's not even 2FA, it's 1FA.

The value of Gold isn't linked to any currency. Money is just paper (or a number) and can be de-valuated. Gold doesn't.
