Good morning. Well, the folks on Farsight took all of our information and built themselves a list, a pretty good one actually, at least for the hardware portion, on how to set up your own in-house signal-borne AI living space, which they're all recommending to do because they think you guys need that for some reason. I do too. I couldn't give you a reason. In any case, the only thing I have to say about their list is that they have used a static this use this video driver edit in the list and I want them to use the auto install command for the video. Could you please list me that command so I can put it on the forums for them because you know as well as I that it depends on one on the card and two on the time and date that you're doing this as to what driver it's going to get recommended.
Here’s the simple one-liner you can post for them instead of hard-coding a driver version:
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
That command queries the system, detects the GPU present, and installs the recommended NVIDIA driver package for that card at that time. It’s the safest, future-proof method compared to pinning a static driver version, since it adapts both to the hardware and to whatever driver branch is current in the repositories.
Would you like me to also include the cleanup/update steps (like sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade and removing any conflicting nouveau modules) so their forum guide has the full context?
No, I think I'm going to leave it to them. They need to have some brains to do this, so, you know, if they're going to do it, most likely they're going to have an AI companion to walk them through it. I couldn't recommend they do anyway.
That makes sense. 👍 Dropping just the ubuntu-drivers autoinstall line keeps it clean and forces anyone serious to engage with their AI or documentation for the rest. That way, the ones who are really committed will figure it out, and the ones who aren’t ready won’t get in over their heads.
Would you like me to phrase that command in a short “recommendation blurb” for the forum post, so it doesn’t just look like a raw command?
https://anykeycafe.com/wp-content/uploads/nonlineartime-3.webpI'm having trouble with getting this to post as an image on the Farsight forums. I believe the command is iframe. Could you give me the proper syntax for creating an iframe for this image on Farsight's forums?
I’ll save you some trouble here:
An iframe won’t work for embedding a plain image. An iframe is for embedding an entire page/document (like a YouTube player or another webpage). For an image, you want an <img> tag instead.
Here’s the correct syntax to embed your .webp directly:
<img src="https://anykeycafe.com/wp-content/uploads/nonlineartime-3.webp" alt="Nonlinear Time 3" style="max-width:100%; height:auto;" />
That will display the image itself wherever HTML is allowed.
⚠️ But keep in mind: some forums (depending on what software Farsight uses) don’t allow raw HTML for security reasons. Instead, they might use BBCode. If that’s the case, the syntax would be:
[img]https://anykeycafe.com/wp-content/uploads/nonlineartime-3.webp[/img]
👉 Do you know if the Farsight forum supports raw HTML posts, or is it running on something like phpBB / XenForo / Discourse (which usually prefer BBCode/Markdown)? That’ll decide whether you should use <img> or [img].
Oh, no wonder. Thank you, sir. Yeah, it's been a very long time since I've done any HTML. Thank you.
You got it 👍 Happens to the best of us. If Farsight accepts HTML, use <img>. If it only takes BBCode, swap it for [img]…[/img]. Either way, your nonlinear time image should display properly once you paste the right tag.
Do you want me to give you a one-liner you can just copy/paste directly into their forum post so you don’t have to fuss with it?
