What would you do if you had 32GB RAM?
(lemmy.ml)
Cry that one of my RAM sticks failed.
Tbh I can already do that with 8gb
I see I'm not the only person who decided to rewatch it after that thread
Buy 32 more and lollygag on actually installing it, if my recent actions have proven anything.
can't be turnin off the computer all willynillly now so that checks out 👍
Why is that in my personal laptop chrome works like shit and in my work laptop it works wonders?! The only difference between them is that in y professional laptop we have thousands of different security apps. It's almost like chrome is shit because it invades u your computer like a virus lol
Do you watch EmpLemon too?
32GB of RAM with zram configured aggressively and I still get close at times to running out of ram. 2 more years and I'll probably need to upgrade to 128GB
Why do you need so much RAM, for browsing, gaming, or is it your operating system that uses so much?

Remember that free RAM is wasted RAM that you already paid for. As a result, modern browsers will behave differently in a RAM-rich vs. RAM-lean environment. If there’s wasted space lying around the browser will just hold on to everything on the off chance that it’s needed again, but will more aggressively purge things if you start running out of RAM.
Keep in mind that when I say “the browser” I also mean Spotify and Discord because those are Electron apps which means they are actually just Chrome tabs in a trench coat.

Always wonder. I bet he got to double lots of women just from that quote alone.
Run our of RAM, apparently.
A few containers, a bunch of IDE windows with large work spqces and a dozen or two browser tabs add up. At least I can follow my "workflow" of doing three things at more or less the same as time
I'd read Lemmy posts about what I'd do if I had 32GM of RAM.
I just got some parts in the mail today so I can run four tabs!
:O Good God man what will you do with all those tabs!
Open Lemmy in 3 of them and have YouTube play a 10 hour cat video on the 4th as God intended of course!
Is this a problem in Chrome? I use Firefox with just 16gb and have no problem with a couple dozen tabs.
It's an exaggeration. Browsers use a lot more RAM than one would expect, but there's not that much of a difference between each one.
Firefox suspends tabs to disk
I have 32gb of ram.
I literally only upgraded so I could install more mods in minecraft and cities skylines 1.
