  • Oh, I totally agree. Being afraid to call out to the allocator because "hey, I might need that memory later" is kinda not great. To a certain extent I can see how if an application tends to thrash memory, making a kajillion syscalls might hurt performance, enough that on many machines the gains from doing a single big allocation on the system and then slicing it up into small allocations in-process might outweigh the downsides, but still...

  • i don't hate windows because of design inconsistencies and imagined security differences. i hate windows because it shoves ads in my face and spies on me, and every time i dig through the registry to get it to not do that, it gets undone with the next system update.

    i use linux because it doesn't make me do that in order to have a system i consider usable.

  • Unused RAM is wasted RAM. It consumes the exact same amount of power whether there's useful data in it or not. Any self-respecting operating system will fill up RAM that applications aren't using with frequently accessed files, so they're ready to go in an instant.

  • JUST BECAUSE I USE FIREFOX DOESN'T MEAN I'M A FURRY!

    I mean, I am a furry.

    BUT NOT BECAUSE I USE FIREFOX!

  • Tell me they didn't. Tell me this isn't an actual slide. This is just too funny.

  • The libre difference, where immediately upon starting up, your desktop manager throws an Oops!, and it shows the current power consumption in the status bar despite having no idea what the current power consumption is.

  • and i bet they'll still be on the cusp of a ceasefire deal six months and however many thousand dropped bombs from now.

  • Tell me more

  • You couldn’t use any of the services to find your phone?

    GrapheneOS doesn't come with any preinstalled (doing so would kind of go against the whole privacy ethos), and I hadn't yet gone through the hassle of setting up an Owntracks server so I could have a third-party one. I tried calling it, but by the time I realized it was missing, it was out of battery.

  • About a month ago I lost my phone somewhere in my house. I still have not found it.

    What really stings is that the thing I was doing with it when I lost it was creating a backup onto a flash drive, which is lost along with it.

  • I hear ya. I saw more trolls in my first 4 months on Lemmy than in 4 years on Reddit.

  • putting aside the innumerable issues with the stance "it is fundamentally immoral to have children", sweet mother of mercy the solution is not life-ruining addictive substances

  • Did social media make sure that didn't happen, or did the fact that virtually every generation ultimately repeats the mistakes of the one before it ensure that didn't happen?
