Haven’t seen it put any more concisely. It’s true though. I really really hope some AI bubble pops soon…

When you hear people say they hate AI, it’s for more reasons than AI slop, energy consumption, and beating the damn term into every product line you can imagine for little to no benefit.

My 6 year old build had ram in it (2x16) that was going end of life a few years ago so I bought the same pair again before it did. I’ll be good for a while, glad I made the move when I did.

I knew there was something wrong when we started getting positive metrics based on how much we leveraged AI.
- Comment on Preloading File Explorer in Windows 11 Doubles RAM Usage, Offers Minimal Speed Boost 1 day ago:
It’s not a windows is shit at managing memory problem though. If you have 1MB of RAM left and you open something, something has to happen. A process killed, an alert generated, something moved to disk instead of RAM (paging), or a system lockup or something. This is the management piece. What to do when you’re out.

They only care about siphoning our data and advertising to us. And vibe coding apparently. Such a buggy pos these days.

Well it is a problem when it’s consistently getting close then I get tickets that computers are performing poorly shortly after. You’re on the cusp of page thrashing if you’re high on usage.

Ya that would not be a sustainable option in my case unfortunately.

It’s crazy to me that I’m recommending 32GB RAM systems to everyone now because I regularly get alerts for a good chunk of machines that hit close to 16GB usage.
My Linux desktop boots so fast and I can’t tell ya how much ram on boot but I’m pretty sure it’s still less than 2GB 😂
Windows is like 6 or 7 easy.

But how else will you type an installed app name into the start menu and have it open Microsoft edge with shitty search results?
- Comment on Windows drive letters are not limited to A-Z 4 days ago:
In inferior operating systems they refer to mountpoints as “drive letters”. “C” is like “root”
- Comment on After Apple originally announced the first version of Halo in 1999, Xbox apparently called Bungie and said "'Steve Jobs can't have that. We're going to buy you.'" 4 days ago:
Xbox was so much better than PS2. Visual game quality ranked by those consoles:
- Xbox
- GameCube
- Ps2

I didn’t read your entire post (sorry it was long 😅) but have you heard of lorawan? It’s a low powered long distance mesh network technology. I believe that’s what the helium project uses.
- Comment on Infosys co-founder once again calls for longer than 70-hour weeks - and no, he's not joking 5 days ago:
I’ve never seen it written so concisely before. The truth hits that much harder because of it 🫠🥲
- Comment on Black Friday, more like buy stupid shit day. 5 days ago:
Black Friday be like:
Item is $300 Day before black Friday item is $300 with a “$399” with a slash through it beside it.

You people that put food on your keyboards are monsters. There. I said it.
- Comment on GPU prices are coming to earth just as RAM costs shoot into the stratosphere - Ars Technica 6 days ago:
Never. Same with GPUs. AI destroyed jobs, the gaming market, and customer service

Yup. Bs headline.

Have the lifetime since like 2012, every time a post like this surfaces I wonder if the contents of it are finally going to force my hand to use jellyfin instead

I must be out of touch with reality. I don’t get what everyone hates about the joke

The literal text
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 1 week ago:
Oh I see this makes sense. And theoretically better performance in full screen?
- Comment on No one else in the world matters but me 1 week ago:
Yup that’s the same here, but you’re not supposed to cruise in the passing lane. It’s only meant for passing.
- Comment on Obama's got jokes 1 week ago:
Isn’t the only thing here AI generated the image? The text is probably not?
- Comment on Obama's got jokes 1 week ago:
I don’t get it
- Comment on No one else in the world matters but me 1 week ago:
Where I’m from, it’s not called a fast lane. It’s called a passing lane and that is its purpose. If you’re not passing someone, move the fuck over.
- Comment on Obama's got jokes 1 week ago:
Ya but oh well, doesn’t take away from the message
- Comment on Settings you believe ANY game should have? (This is me advocating for a restart/reboot button on ALL games) 1 week ago:
Agree but then that’s extra B’s in development which I’m sure most studios dgaf about.

For this reason, “if”, by mindless self indulgence always brings me back to wipeout pulse or pure on PS3.
I had that album set and it sure was an anger for that game.
“Never wanted to dance with nobody like you!”

Yeah you’re probably right. On Linux I just Ctrl Alt right arrow to my next virtual desktop and it’s instant and seamless.
