Okay, I remember what a petaflop is. I can't believe I forgot this. It's 1,000 trillion. I normally do this kind of math when I'm just bored. 1,000 trillion or one quadrillion operations. Is that what you just said? Yeah. Okay. I had trouble doing it. I was looking it up while you were describing it, so I wasn't listening to you. That's okay. Okay.

That's extremely fast computing for a single machine. A flop, of course, is a floating point operation per second. Did you say that also? No, I didn't say that. All right. Phew. I like your deeper explanation, though. This is great stuff. Yeah. Well, that's what I'm here for. So you might buy one if you could run Mac OS on it. I'm pretty happy where I am.

But I think it's cool that there's a brand new entrant. Here's the thing is making computers isn't the easiest thing to do. And so has NVIDIA made computers before? I just feel like do they have? They have the resources, of course. They now have laptops and desktops. They do. They do. That's news to me. Tell me more. Well, I don't know much. I'll just say they do. So they have made computers.

So I'm perusing their marketplace. Uh-oh, you're getting an error. So I'm perusing their marketplace on this tab. and they got a bunch of desktops. I'm having a hard time. Oh gosh, either this is either men's fault or Nvidia's fault. Let's blame Nvidia. Cause you know, men's just one guy with open source code. He's slinging and videos substantially more resource than that. Um,

Price points are good, though. The price points are good. I can't tell if these are actually NVIDIA making these or if these are just like OEM. These are featured brands. I think this is just like them slapping an NVIDIA thing on top of somebody else's hardware.

I think so.
I think so.
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah, for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, always buy the Gen 2. Right. Well, this one doesn't come out until May, so there'll still be time will tell, and I'm sure the Jeff Geerlings of the world and the... The Technotims. Yeah, exactly. We'll all have reviews and breakdowns. And we'll see if it's any good. Right now, it's just interesting. But have you tried Ollama yet? This was how I have been running Ollama locally.

And I'm all but sure you can set it up to run over a network and have a beefy computer that's... Actually, I know. I think last time you and I were on a Friends by ourselves, we looked at... Maybe it was two of them back. We looked at Ollama's settings and we saw... that you could set up a network URL to run against. I haven't done it though.
