    The dumbest part about linux is watching coreutils and systemd stuff take less than 512Mb of RAM only for any modern browser or electron app to take a fat 4gb dump all over it.

    Compiz with all the fancy effects enabled only adds like 200-300Mb tops.

    But rendering a crappy JS infested webpage requires 10 isolated processes because no one learned anything from 40+ years of computer security.

    Epic is already teasing Unreal 6 as if Unreal 5 isn’t the reason why every “AAA” release has had horrible lack of optimization.

      Don’t forget GPU makers struggling to justify the usual price increase for a “new generation” of cards, and - as a result - pivoting to selling cards the promote upscaling by default.

      Not only do our games no longer run properly, they also look fucking blurry while doing so! Yaaaay.
