You should just maintain awareness of how much you’re using. I think 32gb ram + 32gb swap is ridiculous, frankly. Fedora by default sets zram up to 8gb, with no other swap space configured. Works very well that way.
Personally I’d also probably not ever set up more than 16gb of swap space. If I’m somehow hitting that limit it’s because I actually just need to buy more RAM.
At this rate it seems like I will also never be upgrading from the 1070. Miners, NFTs, supply chain, AI, tariffs… how is an honest guy supposed to just buy a decent GPU when squeezed between all that bs?
Biden hitched the dying empire’s wagon to Israel and Ukraine, and now Trump is pretending the rest of the world isn’t fed up with US’s antics. Sorry, man. Alternatives are rising. Belt and Road exists. Nobody likes us anymore. Many don’t even fear us anymore. These genocidal and violent morons are playing the game like it’s the 90s without realizing the rules have been updated since then.
Earlier today I went onto youtube in a private window and looked up a video for some old video game. Then I went back to the homepage. I was just smacked with rightwing and sexualized content in the recommendations once the home page was populated. There are a lot of good content makers on YouTube, but it’s an absolutely trash website.
I don’t know if there have been studies on this, but I would not be surprised if social media platforms (particularly YouTube and Facebook) in the last two months have pivoted hard into promoting more reactionary content, and that they are responsible over the last 15 years for generally promoting conservatism.
Does Incus allow you to use a VM with a GUI? One thing that’s nice about Proxmox is I have one VM with a very basic lxqt setup for when I need that, and I can either use remote-viewer + the spice protocol to access it or access it through the Proxmox web ui. That’s been very handy.
Just like the Signal thing where they mistakenly added Jeffrey Goldberg, the real issue for most of the upper echelons of the media and political classes isn’t that they’re funding a genocide and bombing Yemen (this should in fact be supported fully), it’s that they didn’t follow proper comms protocols and goofed their opsec. It looks bad! What’s worse than looking bad while managing empire? To them, nothing.
the order is actually Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
That would be the behavior of a rogue state.
Private health insurance is the biggest fucking scam ever. The private insurance companies benefit by getting the aggregate healthiest population into their plans (working adults). The most likely to be expensive people, i.e. old people (on medicare) or poor people (on medicaid, or not even on an insurance plan) are on government, tax payer insurance plans. There is literally no reason except for corporate profiteering that Medicare should not be expanded to cover all people.
Also all those conversations, especially in the 2020 election period, were totally bullshit. You say something like M4A will cost 44 trillion dollars or whatever, which sounds like an insane amount of money. What is often left out of the discussion is that estimated cost was 1) over 10 years and 2) has to be weighed against the current costs we already pay for insurance. So the deal was very simple: the overall costs would go down because the overall spending would be less, and at the same time millions of people without coverage would be covered, and at the same time you don’t have to contemplate stupid bullshit like in network, out of network providers. Or ever again talk to your insurance about why something is or isn’t covered. Boils my blood when I think too much about this.
Not even gonna weigh in on things like how medicare can’t negotiate prescription drug prices (https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/23/us/politics/medicare-drug-price-negotiations-lawsuits.html), or how dental, vision, and hearing are treated separately from general healthcare, or how med school is prohibitively expensive, or how the residents after med school are overworked because the guy who institutionalize that practice was literally a cokehead. Those are all just bonus topics. The point is we are getting fleeced.
The fact that it was made into a movie as well…
