It really pisses me off when I have 64 gigs of ram and programs still insist on grinding my disk to shreds with temp files instead of making use of that. Nobody's running terabytes of compressed data through a raspberry pi you stupid nigger
@zero Its not swap. Its programs clevermaxxing and being like "hehe watch me never go above 50 megs of ram to compress all your files" meanwhile draining write cycles from your expensive nvme
@syzygy@zero yeah I used to run a ramdisk for temp files on windows 10 and it worked great. Ramdisk software no longer works correctly on windows 11 because they can't just let me live in peace
@RustyCrab@syzygy@dragnucs@zero I run a register, I'm not in the social class that lets you actually make money doing something fulfilling for your life
@TURBORETARD9000@syzygy@dragnucs@zero well when your work gives you a computer you're extremely limited with what you can do with it. Mine is comparatively lax because I need admin rights to perform tasks but removing windows off the machine is not something I can do.
@RustyCrab@syzygy@dragnucs@zero it's hilarious
my register runs Windows 7 Embedded
The lottery register runs Gentoo
There's an iMac in the back
And NOTHING FUCKING WORKS
@bot@TURBORETARD9000@syzygy@dragnucs@zero you can turn those off thankfully. Windows doesn't make customization easy but there's a billion autists making hacking and customization programs that make it less awful. O&O Shut Up 10 disables most of the objectionable features of windows.
@TURBORETARD9000@syzygy@bot@dragnucs@zero yeah that, but they also do ecosystem trapping which is infuriating for somebody like me but I know bot doesn't care about that.
@TURBORETARD9000@syzygy@bot@dragnucs@zero its honestly hard to say if ms or apple is more evil. MS is LOOKING like it's becoming more evil with new windows versions however as they might start doing environment trapping on a software level with windows 12. Thats why I've already moved all my personal stuff to linux.
but both pale in comparison to google, who is full of legit psychos.
That's p dumb, Apple is good in a lot of ways even tho I know they do some evil stuff. It's literally the best option for ppl that don't have autism that want things to actually work properly.
@bot@RustyCrab@syzygy@dragnucs@zero If you can't figure out how to use linux to do basic tasks without issues honestly you shouldn't be allowed to use a computer. I'm no poweruser, but I can bet on Linux more than I can anything else. Quit relying on companies to coddle your willful ignorance.
Apple is a good choice if you want nice stuff that works well with stuff you own and doesn't break for years. It's may be more expensive but literally everyone knows it's not for poor ppl.
@TURBORETARD9000@bot@dragnucs@syzygy@zero gonna be honest though I would CONSIDER an iPhone if it weren't for side loading restrictions. Almost every app I use is side loaded.
I really really really do not want to use anything google going forward. Yes I know android is foss but the only OS worth a shit is calyx and that only runs on pixels.
@RustyCrab@zero@dragnucs@bot@syzygy@TURBORETARD9000 Lineage worksforme. I exclusively use fdroid with official repos + izzyondroid (and maybe a handful other specific repos).
Auxio is god-tier music player, the map tool (organicmaps) is very swish, and I have Simon Tatham's puzzles. That's already more than I need from it.
