Have you tried the new gemma4 models? The e4b fits in the 12gb memory and is pretty good. Or you can use 31b too, if you're okay with offloading to CPU.
Yes, it's pretty common here. Everyone likes it. You can easily make your own. Just add lime juice, sugar, salt, black pepper, toasted cumin powder, and optionally chaat masala, then either add water or plain soda.
There's a lot of that, it is just that typical media does not cover them as they are not "interesting". Like, there was a Surrounded debate where they brought a lot of conspiracy theorists with one journalist, and iirc they only talked about one topic regarding the government, rest was just flat earth, aliens etc.
There are a lot of theorists that claim how much the government is lying about things, manipulating the masses etc, most of which is slowly coming true.
On a side note, if you have played GTA SA, you must have seen The Truth talking so much nonsense. I would like to share this as I have always found this very funny.
CJ: What's with all the aluminum foil, man?
The Truth: Protection from mind control, dude.
CJ: Mind control?
The Truth: Induction of images, sound or emotion using microwave radiation. D'you know how many government satellites are watching any citizen at any moment?
CJ: No.
The Truth: Twenty three. Do you know how many religious relics are kept at The Pentagon?
CJ: No, I don't.
The Truth: Twenty three. You see a pattern emerging here, man?
CJ: Man, I'm seeing patterns all over the place! Get that smoke out of my face!
Tldr?
