Yeah that’s fair. My RAM usage is through the roof lately, but it pretty clearly happened when I switched to a multimonitor setup. I’m much more likely to have a lot of stuff in the background now because it’s easier to have a lot open at the same time in the practical sense.
But I was lucky enough to grab a 64GB kit before prices went into the sky. Believe it or not, I was regularly up against the limit when I had 32GB.
“Starting to”? 16GB is just a few tabs open for long enough.
Assuming around USD $220 for a 16GB kit of DDR5, it now costs $27.50 more to run Ubuntu.
I’m not understanding the logic here. Apple killed their last tower. That isn’t surprising, and their user base is perfectly happy buying nothing but SOCs.
Then there is a still-expanding PC gaming market, where building the machine from discrete parts is a portion of the hobby. By and large, this has never really overlapped with Apple’s user base.
The article does a poor job saying why we should expect non-Apple machines to go the same direction.
Aaaand, if it was as simple as an executive order, one wonders why he couldn’t just pay the TSA the whole time.
Surely he didn’t just want to normalize ICE in airports before they end up at polling places.
Inb4 the White House calls it a “democrat shutdown” again.
On Tuesday, the jury deliberated for only one day before agreeing that Meta should pay $375 million in civil damages for violating state consumer protections and misleading parents about the safety of its apps.
Not enough. These corporations operate on different math. They pay no taxes. They swim in currency. Pick the biggest realistic number you can imagine and then multiply it by the next biggest. Anything less will be factored out as the cost of business.
Case in point: $375 million is a mere fraction of what Meta spends in a bunch of different areas. Compared to profits, it’s practically rounding error. It won’t affect much.
His skin would clear up if he stopped drinking.
They’re not really supposed to be played like Mario. Sonic is about getting through the level aa quick as you can without dying.
To be fair, the game doesn’t really reward you for doing that (besides the time bonus). But the levels are designed for it.
Yeah, I know. I have an MA and a PhD. Ideally, you would already know if this kind of person was on your committee. In practice, you’re probably stuck.
Time for a new supervisor.
Microsoft will have plenty more missteps as they continue to fall from relevance.
That was a landmark case for Hollywood and changed how things are handled with regards to an actor’s likeness being used in films to which they are not attached. AFAIK, Glover got something in compensation, but it was a settlement out of court (= not public record).
That’s how MAGA does marriage, usually
I looked around me and saw blocks, floating in the sky. A turtle was at my feet, staring blankly as it approached without hesitation. Mushrooms were walking around like people; I had to jump over them or I knew I would come to harm. I found I could flatten them if I landed on top in the right spot. I knew there was a princess I was trying to save, but she was in another castle.
Pay up, Nintendo!
“Stock market surges on news…”
“Stock market tumbles due to…”
“The Dow is over 9,000”
It doesn’t matter when it’s up. It doesn’t matter when it’s down. Imagine if media started reporting on the wellbeing of actual individuals instead of the fake money wheel.
The stock market will continue to have very little bearing on the lives of average citizens. Tariffs killing small businesses? Let’s see those stories.
Pay your taxes or shut up.
It’s like $120 billion right? 350 million folks in America, so if my math is right I should get… $300-something bucks!
Maybe I’ll invest it in some new food.

I don’t think it’s controversial to say that “conservative” in the context of US politics has been bifurcated. On the one hand, there are definitely traditional conservatives out there. On the other hand, the really loud ones tend to be far right edge lords who purposefully speak loudly about topics that are socially unacceptable. It’s always based on a misunderstanding of free speech, too: people are generally free to say what they want, but they are not free from the consequences imposed by society based on what they say, especially when supporting harmful activities or straight violence. This is something Elon Musk really should learn about.
I’m all for open discourse with traditional conservatives, but I’m not about to sit idly by while Nazis return to the stage. There was a war and the outcome was pretty darned clear. So, I’d say it’s a good example of bad apples ruining the bunch (though from what I have seen, the number ratio of Nazis vs traditional conservatives is sadly pretty high). I think it is an issue that will need to be fixed between conservatives, ultimately. Shutting down Nazis (again) seems quite acceptable to me, however.
Most people in the world want love. I hope the best for you and yours.
