I mean, as much as I think gates/bezos have abhorrent business practices, they do both have fairly large charitable foundations, and iirc, both have actually built literal hospitals with their money.
… let me be more clear. the suit is clogging a man-made object, stopping a public good from being delivered. nothing about this situation is natural. but it's obviously unjust. none of this has to do with capitalism, it has to do with power (authoritarian communist states can just as easily shut off your water as private companies).
One of my first blog posts in a while, I go over Google’s recent web proposal, and point out exactly why it won’t turn out well. Hope y’all have fun with it.
Been looking for a search engine that isn’t plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I’m starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything...
Hi guys, I failed my automatic driving test today and my parents told me to just bribe?? Is this actually a thing here?? What do I even say?? Who do I talk to?? I signed up to safety driving school who seem legit so would they even take it?? Someone plz help.
it's not mainly how many but how long. I leave my desktop running for weeks, and there was a while when clearing Firefox's cache was the main reason I needed to restart. I do leave something like ~100 open at a time.
htop/top are a bit tricky because Firefox spawns a bunch of sub processes, so it's frequently an undercount; I forget whether htop accounts for that.
yeah, so hypothetically, yes, but when I'm running scripts, frequently their memory usage can cause my computer to freeze if I don't immediately have that memory available. and those are the actual reason I need 64GB, not feeding Firefox's insatiable hunger for RAM.
Think of it as transitory bookmarks. It's something like 20 tabs across 5 different windows for completely different contexts: dev pages in one desktop, work google docs in another, personal email/music/etc in another, gaming in a fourth, social media in a fifth, etc. It means I can easily context switch when I need to without having to dredge the exact things I need out of my own memory.
A painting of my 'sona, Wanderer, and a tribute to No Man’s Sky. I tried using a much brighter and happier palette for the piece instead of my usual moody style, and I think it turned out super well. I’m pretty stoked about this painting. Definitely gonna be using it to show my online identity from now on....
