I had tried about a dozen other distros and all of them had something I didn’t really like. I finally landed on OpenSuse just because it feels like it’s made to get work done. No package manager drama or power trips from devs.
It just comes across as the guy on the project that just does all the work for everyone else because they’re too distracted.
Still haven’t come across nearly anything that I can’t accomplish through the Yast GUI. I wish I had come across it sooner, honestly.
I’m an odd one out and watched all through Seinfeld during COVID and loved every minute of it. But I also get why people who don’t like it feel that way.
Yeah, I agree. Browsers all seemed to act like they are the only thing running on the computer at some point, practically resembling their own OS with the amount of containerization and complexity. There should definitely be a way for the OS to request some RAM be released from the browser.
There’s also the idea that free RAM is somehow a good thing. In an ideal system, the RAM would always be “full” of potentially useful data. Having a bunch of empty RAM means that it’s not being useful. That space could be used to hold plenty of regularly used files that would be instantly loaded instead of having to pull from the drive again.
I don’t know when everyone started getting concerned with RAM usage, but in a perfect system, it would hold onto all of your frequently used programs and files that it could fit from boot and then those would load instantly.
Some Linux distros even allow loading the entire OS into RAM for wild speeds.
Idle RAM is just that. It does you no favors. Now, I do understand that you don’t want to be completely out, but we act like having 80% free is a goal for some reason.
I got to see this live and holy crap what an amazing race! I thought for sure there was about to be a red flag when they were 3-wide. Absolutely incredible to see them up close.
Thankfully USB-C can handle both of those protocols. Just like with Micro USB and Mini before it, it will just take time until the ecosystem catches up. Just, this time, you can run the entirety of possible data streams through a single port.
The Ferrari Challenge cars gave a great comparison. The Ferrari’s were just matching F1 cruising speed at their fastest around the Sphere. Seriously impressive speeds during qualifying.
I think the STEM fields very well supports this. There are entirely new protocols, software, structures, algorithms, technologies and tons more coming out year over year.
All those fields aren’t exclusively supported by fresh college students. Those are people who are having to constantly learn to stay in their field. If you don’t keep learning, the entire industry becomes inaccessible.
