What does it do?

Basically all of the time you’re alive will be after the heat death of the universe, where you will be floating in space, with nothing to do, nothing to see, nothing to experience. Complete darkness, complete silence, in a complete vacuum, for eternity. Every other particle in the universe is forever out of your reach. You know that you will have nothing forever. You will never see, hear, or touch anything again, for all of time, which will never end. The trillions of years that preceded your float through the void fade into a distant memory as you outlive twice as much time, four times as much, a trillion-trillion times as much, and infinitely more.

Very nice.

JPEG XL, for sure. Great format.

Quite possibly. And also that format should die. It’s bad and it should feel bad.

Lying can get you ahead in the immediate, but then you’re a liar, and liars lose friends and alienate people.

I don’t think you’re supposed to view someone else’s paginis without permission.

Because legally there are more choices, but really, there are only two.

I just gave them 500 new data samples. :) My thumb is sore.

If it’s just hours, that’s fine. I’ve spent months on a system before that ultimately got scrapped. When I was at Google, they accidentally had two teams working on basically the same project. The other team, with about 40 engineers, having worked on it for about a year, had their project scrapped. My team was meant to do the same work, with about 23 engineers. So if you’re ever wondering why Hangouts Chat launched kinda half baked, that’s why.

Oh thank god. Minetest was the worst name, and the game is actually pretty cool. It definitely deserves a cool name, and Luanti sounds cool.

I mean, my big fat body, mostly.

Can I suggest QuickDAV as a good file sharing/transfer app?

It uses the Nephele WebDAV server.

Ring finger longer than middle finger. 😬

I take it you’re not good at stealth.

If you’re transferring files over a socket (like through SMB or SFTP), the receiving end usually has a small buffer, like 64KB. It’ll just pause the stream if it’s receiving data faster than it can push it to disk and the buffer gets full. So usually a file transfer won’t use much memory.

There is some poorly written software that doesn’t do that, though. I ran into a WebDAV server that didn’t do that when I was writing my own server. That’s where you could run into out of memory errors.

Apparently people don’t like hearing that. xD

I use all three, Mac, Linux, and Windows, all the time. Mac is the only one I’m ok with having 8GB of RAM. At least 12 on the other two, unless you use zram swap on Linux, then you can get away with 8. Afaik, Windows doesn’t have anything like that, so 16 is best, but 12 is ok.

I don’t really understand why people would downvote that.

Mac is generally really good at handling memory, including compressing it on the fly. My guess is anyone complaining is looking at it through the lens of Windows, where 8GB is not enough for a lot of tasks.
