I really really really need more RAM. 16GB is far from enough. Had to witness the kernel kill all of my Chrome extensions and most of my tabs and an IDE and still it wasn't able to run that container in the 8G RAM it just freed up...

I remember the days when 8G RAM was an overkill.

The times have changed. Now I'm looking into getting a Linux lappy w/ 96GB and still worried whether it'll suffice my needs....

    Who was that again who said, that software gets slow quicker, than hardware getting faster.

    I guess it's not that far fetched to say the same about memory consumption.

    @jestdotty I had it enabled, but the slowness is just painful :/

    Good thing I'm an arcane mother fucker and 4GB is overkill both for work *and* playing Morrowind. Shit, I can even do both things at the same time.

    @dissolvedgirl Web devs should have no more than 8GB, an outdated quadcore, and a 2MBit/s connection. That would result in faster websites for everyone.
