At the moment it looks like what the market is demanding. A few years ago specialisation was in

Crumbs is such a cute name, but a little small when he's the whole loaf

Springtails and certain mites also love to eat fungus. I use them to keep mold under control in my terrariums

The main issue with YouTube premium is the price, I can't imagine that they're making anywhere near $14 a month from showing me ads that I never click on. I'd love to see a breakdown, including how much is subsiding free users, how much is going to creators, and how much is going into the pockets of shareholders.

I think like most if not all of the people I know would easily pay $5 dollars for premium

Huh, it's maybe as if, nooooo... it couldn't be, the Zuck and Elon are my trusted friends, my confidants, they wouldn't. They couldn't. No way in hell they'd sell or otherwise compromise my personal data

Oh totally, Linux is in the same ballpark as, if not better than, Macs when it comes to RAM usage. Windows is just a hog

I own a 8GB MacBook Pro for work, it's definitely better than a PC with 8GB of RAM, but not better or even close to a PC with 16GB. Just the amount of stutters/freezes while the swap file goes is insane

That's just an APU, see consoles and laptops. The unified memory is basically just the above, but Apple also claims that due to Apple Silicon having the storage controller on board, the swap is magically faster 🀷

Also Mac OS/Linux use less RAM than Windows which certainly helps.

8GB is "fineβ„’" on a MacBook Air, but it's criminal for a Pro machine, and it certainly should not cost Β£200 for an extra 8GB. That's genuinely insane pricing

It is 100% a joke. Literally other than Windows being slightly more RAM hungry, there's not a huge difference between it and Mac's RAM

Whoa, that's like 32GB of Windows RAM. Seems excessive to me tbh

Totally agree, I interpret it in the same way as saying that people are blowing/fellating you. Not saying that is/isn't sexist, but it is crude, especially as a public statement from a company. I'm just trying to get the facts straight
