  • I feel like many programmers (or their management) have grown ignorant to resource limitations over the past decade or so.

    Obviously there is good examples like many linux distros running well on 4GB RAM and the like, but when it comes to windows, websites and proprietary programs, they gobble up insane amounts of RAM to provide almost the same functionality as in 2010.



  • I know it is a bit of a silly answer but here we go:

    My brother had installed a game-boy emulator on the family PC when my parents had prohibited gameboys from the house. My older siblings bought some though and hid them, but i was too young for that. (They also didn’t tell me).

    Anyways, so at the time Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire was the hot shit. I played Ruby on the emulator and i loved it. There was just one problem. The “nebula” animation that is transparent in the gameboy version was solid in the emulator. When i entered a cave i had to find a way to pass it blindly. This was before we had proper internet access at home, so i couldn’t look up the cave layout.

    I had to gave up after the second gym or so. When i got older and my grandma bought me a gameboy, i played Ruby like crazy as i finally could progress.














  • Which only has rather limited information derivable from it. The most “identifying” would be to vote regularly on a community dedicated to your local area.

    If you don’t trust your instance with knowing your IP-address, then the issue is not going to be solved by “anonymous voting”. Because your instance has to know if you voted on something or not, so votes cannot be done multiple times. This is unavoidable and equal to the situation when using reddit. Except that you can choose a different instance if you distrust the current instance.

    OP either did not think through what he is claiming or he is driven by an agenda.




  • This can’t be judged well from afar imo.

    My wife and i also got together two months before she was supposed to move to a different city. If people genuinely love each other, commuting and making things work is possible and people have done it before. In the case of my wife the different city didn’t work out after all. When we got together it started with us trying to talk ourselves out of it, because of all the reasons why it should not work. Now we are going strong since more than 5 years.

    Life reality doesn’t work in terms of “now i will date and now i will find a suitable partner” or “now is not the time”. People who limit or push themselves like this end up sabotaging themselves imo.

    You will have to trust your guts on this. It is set that you will move. If he is serious, he will find a solution for this. If he is that rich and he is unhappy where he lives now, there is no reason why he shouldn’t be able to make it work that you life in a different city. If he doesn’t, then it isn’t meant to be.

    The age difference is an issue though in the sense that his life experience makes it easier for him to control situations and make promises not to hold up, than the other way round. This does not mean that it has to be the case. You should see to judge him by his actions, not by words.





  • Israel is bombing Gaza with American bombs dropped from American Jets using American surveillance.

    Israel is blowing up houses with American anti-tank mines and bulldozing others with American bulldozers.

    Israel is protected from UN security council decisions thanks to American vetos.

    Israel is financed significantly by rich Americans and encourages Americans to help in ethnic cleansing and land stealing in Palestine, with about a third of the settlers in the Westbank being American citizens.

    Israeli lobby groups are telling American politicans what to do and what not to do, being a tolerated form of direct foreign influence and Israeli intelligence is likely involved in American elites raping American children around Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, to blackmail said elites to do the bidding of Israel.
