Hating on Threads for no reason is the circlejerk of Lemmy.

The EU alone is about 450 million people. There’s more countries in Europe than in the EU. I think you got something wrong.

Some people need a high-five. With a billiard table. In the face.

RAM usage is RAM usage, and besides the allocation still being awful and you probably having less RAM available in a heavy task, this means substantial power consumption, that costs money.

Unused RAM is wasted RAM. Even if it’s just the OS keeping apps on memory for faster launches. If you do need heavy RAM for a task your OS is clever enough to reshuffle things.

Used RAM does use more electricity but that is so neglible it’s a non-issue and no argument.

Of my 32 GB at least 26 GB are constantly in use.

SF-UR, K-DST (GTA SA), SoulwaxFM and LSUR (GTA 5) will always be my go to 👌

I still have it from time to time that Windows has to install a driver for something benign like a thumb drive. Not always, though. And yes, the driver is fixed to the physical port. Using a different port reinstalls the same driver again.

My cat was diabetic. Had to give her insulin shots but she absolutely managed that extremely well. She understood it improves her condition and was happy to follow instructions. After leaving out the dry food she recovered and doesn’t need insulin anymore. However, as a result of the diabetes she now can’t process sugar or wheat at all. She’ll vomit that right out. Luckily, the cheapest brands at the supermarket don’t use either of those in their wet food, only the expensive brands. Go figure.
