Nice, I live near a beach and I almost never go there (1 or 2 times per year) I always find it funny that people want to spend vacation there...

To be fair I don't dislike the beach, but my gf does, and that doesn't help me to go there more often.

There is a tweak, which I don't recall even having on Android, that lets you select tons of apps and move them around, you know, like you could in a desktop environment... I wonder how much time will take to have that.

(Probably some 3rd party launchers or Android skins allow this, but I can't do it with Pixel Launcher).

A musical, just what the DCEU needed! /s

8 GB is the absolute bare fucking minimum for most computers these days

I keep seeing this statement all around the web but it is still amazing that we need that much RAM even for today.

Don't get me wrong, I know 8 GB is becoming the standard even for mobile phones, so it is only logical to assume to bump this number for PCs (why no 12 GBS of RAM? IDK) and I have been using 16 GBs of RAM for 10 years now, it is a MacBook Pro and for me Apple does not make it clear to see how much of that RAM I'm actually using... Regardless RAM has never been a problem for me, with casual usage, and I always thought 8 GBs should work the same for even a lighter usage, why do I say that? Because before moving to such a Mac I used a laptop with 4 GBs of RAM around 2011-2014 and it was a pain in the ass to use (the processor was shit as well) for simple navigation for my thesis... So yeah if you think 8 GBs is bad, try 4 GBs.

Another reason I think 8 GBs is "a high amount for casual usage" is that my work PC had also 4 GBs of RAM, but there was not a reason to hoard tabs and such, so it was very manageable (also the processor wasn't shit, but it was like a Core i5 or something like that, the usual office PCs you see and know), if we are talking about bottlenecks it would be the shitty HDD speeds LMAO.

What I think you guys all mean with 8 GBs of RAM is the bare minimum for nowadays standard is if you use it for IT related topics or you like to hoard stuff in it (which ain't bad, unused RAM is wasted RAM after all) or simply depend on heavy programs which ain't the web browser, for casuals I'd say 6 GBs would be a fair number, although it is not usual, and fuck 4 GBs of RAM in 2024, for any kind of device lol (I bet offices still use that dog shit).

Anyway I'd personally aim for 16 GBs of RAM or more regardless, for any of my future purchases, because I like to keep my stuff for years to come.

Excellent! Hopefully it doesn't break 3rd party apps 🙃

Good thing I have plenty huh?

In other words, Google won't kill what they can use to harvest your data.

In Mexico there are people working in the gas station, and it is up to you to tip or not, I usually only do it when they (unasked) clean my windows.

Imagine paying a subscription to remove ads.

Not even in my wildest dreams, as a teenager being amazed at what Facebook was and the evolution it brought to ~~post shit with folks~~ connect with relatives on the Internet I would ever think about this kind of shittification.

If I could time travel and advise about shittification to people using services like Facebook, Twitter or Google.... Heck, sounds like a good time travel movie, but I can't see anyone having the balls of doing it, and I think nobody would listen anyway 😂

[-] kratoz29@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I hope this kind of business never thieves.

I hate that Apple never talk about RAM size... I mean, I know most Apple users don't even get to worry about this anymore due to how iOS works... but still, it is hardware after all...

If they ever defederate from piracy communities, yeah, but I don't think so, admin has a very anti defederate policy, so I see this scenario very hard to occur.
