162·1 day agoAnyone who unironically says just google it, and doesn’t google it themselves and provides a link to a concise answer should be shot on sight.
Same for the RTFM crowd. So many manuals are filled with so much fluff that just gets in the way of actually being useful.
Based on OPs edit that sounds exactly like what it’s doing.
14·6 days agoOnce you start opening programs your OS is basically negligible.
Sure windows might use 5 gigs of ram on startup. But when you’ve got 100 tabs open using 20 gigs of ram the 3 vs 5 gigs is a drop in the bucket.
As long as it’s above 0F I’ll wear shorts. My legs don’t get cold unless it’s really windy.
What car is it? I doubt it really requires premium fuel. It’ll probably run better on premium. But I doubt any non enthusiast naturally aspirated car would 100% require premium.
8·8 days agoWhat about a nice middle ground option? It has all the features that most sane people would want, but not the kitchen sink.
I hate diagnosing 3rd party jank so if I had to pick one or the other then I’d pick all in one. Oh you updated and now your whole ui is broken? Good fucking luck guessing what adon wasn’t updated for this change.
73·10 days agoServers aren’t directly touched by users. Nobody knows or even cares what the server is outside of the admin.
I have never encounter a DisplayPort device that doesn’t support hot swap. From the early days, all the way to the latest and greatest they all support it.
13·11 days agoI think of it like this. They’re a 90s baby, not a 90s kid.
90s kid would be more like born in the mid 80s to mid 90s so you have actual memories of the 90s.
I just fix problems.
Processing data broken? I’ll fix it.
VPN broken? I’m on it.
New server needs installed? Yeah I’ll do that. (I love hosting Minecraft on a server that costs more than my car)
Old server needs removed? Cool free stuff.
It’s always something different, and I get to explore new things and possibly get free stuff.
Aim them yourself. You’ll spent more time finding a good spot to aim them then actually doing it.
If they’re LEDs or HIDs they’re probably just a screw you turn to aim them. If they dont then it’s basically the same thing, but in a less convenient spot. Look up the proper aiming procedure for your car, or just wing it by finding a car in a parking lot.
I mean in terms of disk space sure it takes up a good bit. From what I can tell winsxs takes about 10 gigs of space. But the actual wow64 subsytem only takes a 1-2 hundred MBs of RAM which is nothing for giving you that much backwards compatibility.
Rosetta 2 is going away in the next Mac OS, but that’s not going to have a massive impact on anything. The biggest impact will be the installer will be half the size since it doesn’t need twice the executables. You can download an Intel or Arm specific installer of Mac OS and it’s already half the size.
why doesn’t Microsoft treat Windows in a similar vein?
Because then nobody would use Windows. People use windows because it runs all of the programs they love. If it didn’t people wouldn’t put up with their bullshit.
When I vote on the machine it fills out a paper ballot for me, then I just check it and turn it in.
It all depends on your state, city, and county and how they have it set up.
Windows’ bloat isn’t because they have to maintain backwards compatibility. It’s because they keep adding more shit, and the shit they add isn’t exactly hyper optimized.
If something like Windows 11 requires specific hardware in order to install it, why does it need to accommodate compatibility for archaic devices/software?
Because my computer from 2024 doesn’t run software made in 2024 or newer. I use a mixture of the latest and greatest™️, and old stuff.
Apples transition to arm was not a rewrite, nor is the software any better. It’s the hardware that’s better and makes using Mac OS on an M1 MBP so much better than an Intel one.
My dynamic IP almost never changes. I’ve had 3 in the last 10 years. How often does yours change?
There’s also dynamic dns if yours changes often.
Correct.
IOS is based on Mac OS, which is certified unix.
Classic Mac OS was not unix like. Mac OS X, which was based on NeXTSTEP was. But that came out in like 2001.
iOS came out in 07
Depends on the service. There’s a lot of really bad ones that just seem to dump the video to a file and call it a day. Any good service will be monitoring the tape, but not sitting there watching the whole thing.
