• Meta Caps Internal AI Token Spending After Costs Approach Billions in 2026

  You don't need to use an online service to do this; you get to avoid spending money on tokens doing it offline. Gemma 4 works perfectly well offline on limited hardware (I have an 8GB video card) and can handle extracting text from image-based PDFs just fine. Take a PDF -> run it through MarkItDown [1], using the OCR plugin if you need (point it to Gemma 4) -> now you can ask Gemma 4 questions about the document.... - Source: Hacker News / 28 days ago

• Computer use in Gemini 3.5 Flash

  I have a standing instruction for any documents that can't natively be read by a given AI to first be converted into .md using https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown which I've found to work really well. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• The Best PDF to Markdown Tools in 2026 (Honestly Compared)

  Microsoft's open-source MarkItDown is a Python library and CLI that converts PDFs (plus Office files, images, audio and more) into Markdown aimed squarely at language models. It's fast, free, and trivial to drop into a script. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• What is the cheapest VPS Hosting?

  I have an 11 GB VPS with Windows on it, and it’s running perfectly. I 100% recommend this hosting, because of it’s pricing and support. I give $8.25 a month for an 11 GB VPS. Which would cost up to $55 a month on popular hosting providers like, Linode, Vultr, and Digital Ocean. Source: about 4 years ago

• question for any linode users

  Anyone that hosts a server using the cloud provider linode.com Do you encounter any limits regarding the CPU speed? Source: about 4 years ago

• Linux OS

  One of my best recommendations is to spin up a linux server in the cloud, you can do it for free for a few months from linode.com for example. Setting up an online server for a game you like playing can also be a rewarding learning experience for networking and Linux in general. Source: about 4 years ago

• A2, Krystal, 20i, Brixly or Mechanicsweb. Best one for resellers?

  Then you can buy a VPS from linode.com, katapult.io, contabo.com or hetzner.cloud, I'd recommend a 4gb VPS, and in order to run, it has to be over 2gb. For the OS, choose AlmaLinux or a supported version of CentOS. Source: over 4 years ago

• An 'unlimited' web host has been deleting my files without any notice or warning..

  Use VPS, don't use shared web hosting when you generate content as it tends to use lots of resources like RAM, CPU %, and storage. I'd recommend hetzner.com, contabo.com, or linode.com. Source: over 4 years ago
