Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    4gb RAM

    Windows 11

    Yeah ok, have fun with that.

    We built out our company VDI with 8gb because "windows needs 4 and office needs 4".

    Somehow.. somehow.. everyone needed an upgrade.

    [–] DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 36 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Yeah, 16 or GTFO

    [–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 23 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    I haven't ordered anything less than 16 in 9 years. 8 is shit, 4... Throw that thing in the dumpster if you can't increase the RAM.

    Macs with 8GB base: did you call?

    Anti Commercial-AI license

    [–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 months ago

    Yeah I considered buying a personal Mac a few times but when 8 gb of extra RAM is at the price it is on an already overpriced machine... I just can't justify it.

    Meanwhile my old server was happy chugging along on 256MB for many many years

    [–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 months ago

    Mines happy running at 32GB. But I'm running ZFS on it...

    If torture methods existed for computers, this would be one of them
