It's not that bad. I run Linux on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, which is much weaker than this. (It's not a competition, tho. Just saying.) And that's also a pretty standard device. I'm kinda interested to see if anyone can go below 64M RAM with a modern installation.
I think the gap stems from need. Most people only learn what they absolutely need to. My sister and I are just 3 years apart in age. Yet I am pretty familiar with tech, while she knows next to nothing. I was always there to fix whatever broke. Even now she knows that if she needs to watch something, she can just ask me to add it to my Jellyfin server. I often have to remote into her system to fix stuff.
The Gen Z we're talking about here mostly grew up using phones, and phone OSes do their best to hide any complexity away from the user. So they never learnt anything. I'm also technically Gen Z (very early), but growing up in rural India, I had to teach myself how to pirate since streaming wasn't a thing yet (our internet was too slow for that anyway), and the local theater didn't play anything except local mainstream cinema.
Come on, it was right in their name. CrowdStrike. They were threatening us all this time.
Idk, installing Linux was pretty easy 10 years ago too. Can't comment about anything earlier than that though.
Yep. They start from a position that most of us can't even dream of achieving.
Most of us don't even realize what being truly wealthy is like. I come from an affluent family. I never had to worry about necessities, had a decent education at the high school level to secure scholarships at good universities. But there are people who don't need to care about anything at all. They can just get any degree with minimal work, inherit the family business, and have someone else run it for them. On the other hand, I've known people who had to drop college or had to go worse colleges since they couldn't afford the fees (I'm not from US, college is not even that expensive here, still some can't afford it). The wealth inequality makes me feel nauseous.
I guess we can eliminate formula one. Seems kinda boring to me.
Anon thinks speaking and writing in a language is all there is to do in a bachelor's degree. You literally have to read thousands of pages of literature, and need to be able to analyze those pieces critically.
Guys, is lying allowed on the Internet? I'm starting to think that Anon never even set foot in a college.
I think this one unites all the genders. Fuck Reagan!
The original line comes from Chapter 11 Verse 32 of the Bhagavad Gita.
कालोऽस्मि लोकक्षयकृत्प्रवृद्धो
(kālo ’smi loka-kṣhaya-kṛit pravṛiddho)
The most literal translation would be: "I am mighty Time, the source of destruction of the worlds." But काल can alternatively mean Death, and it looks like that's the interpretation Oppenheimer chose. The verb here is a simple "am", as in "I am Time/Death". So the "am become" part is not due to any feature of Sanskrit itself.
But people usually take some liberty while translating poetry. Given the context (i.e. Krishna convincing Arjuna to fight, and showing him his true form), it makes sense to use "I have become" or even "I am become" (as explained in the other comments, it's grammatically correct).
Hate to victim blame, but what a moron. Microsoft is definitely at fault here, but so is this guy.
He "moved" the data to OneDrive. Why the fuck would anyone do that? He wants to migrate to a new larger drive, but why did he feel the need to delete stuff before verifying that his data has safely been migrated to the new drive? A single drive to store anything important is very dangerous in itself, but this is a different level of stupidity.
I had few TB migration at the start of this year. I vehemently follow the 3-2-1 rule for anything important. (I actually do more copies than that for personal photos and documents.) But I still have the old disks just in case. I can't fathom doing something like this. Maybe I'm overreacting, but ffs it's stupid.
