… Okay?
- Comment on Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough 5 days ago:
CPU usage is famously terrible with Electron, which i also pointed out in the comment you’re replying to. But yes, having multiple chromium instances running for each “app” is terrible
- Comment on Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough 6 days ago:
Yes, it really is that bad. 350 MBs of RAM for something that could otherwise have taken less than 100? That isn’t bad to you? And also, it’s not just RAM. It’s every resource, including CPU, which is especially bad with Electron.
I don’t really mind Electron myself because I have enough resources. But pretending the lack of optimization isn’t a real problem is just not right.
- Comment on Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough 6 days ago:
They didn’t just quadruple. They’re orders of magnitude higher these days. So content is a real thing.
But that’s not what’s actually being discussed here, memory usage these days is much more of a problem caused by bad practices rather than just content.
- Comment on Even Apple finally admits that 8GB RAM isn't enough 6 days ago:
So we’re just going to ignore stuff like Electron, unoptimized assets, etc… Basically every other known problem… Yeah let’s just ignore all that

What vegan is out there calling non-vegans rapists?
I’ve been told that before. Not being vegan implies you support terrible breeding practices which makes you a rapist… apparently…

You could write a script to automatically watch for new files in a folder and strip metadata from every file i guess. I had done something like that for images way before.

I do have the issue when I’m logged out
- Comment on Google admits it's making YouTube worse for ad block users 6 months ago:
Not really true for video games. Plenty of popular games still with uncracked denuvo…
- Comment on Google admits it's making YouTube worse for ad block users 6 months ago:
They don’t seem to check if a user has adblock and pays.
They definitely seem to have checks in place for it. I have Family Premium and so far no issues at all.

T-Mobile is awaiting regulatory approval to acquire Mint and has otherwise reached an agreement to do so.
- Comment on Microsoft may replace the Start button with the Copilot AI in Windows 12 7 months ago:
Given Microsoft’s track record, it’s also not hard to believe, which makes it even worse
- Comment on Microsoft may replace the Start button with the Copilot AI in Windows 12 7 months ago:
Tumbleweed KDE is definitely sweet. Can also recommend Fedora.
