galena71925yMe a few years ago: I am amazed to see that todays phones have more RAM than my laptop from 2009 (4GB).
Me now: Whhhhyyyyy would a phone need 10 GB of RAM? (1+ 6T) Ffs some of todays Laptops dont even have this much! -
we have watches that have over 100 times the computing power of the moon mission...

Parzi88335y1TB is 728,200 unformatted 1509949 byte (1.44 MB) floppies. In actuality it's more like 1474560 bytes (1.40625 MB) usable per floppy after formatting, so 745,654 floppies.

Parzi88335y@JFK422 2GB usable on Android 8 is a fucking NIGHTMAAAAARE
10GB (so like 8 or 9 usable) would be AMAZING! -
nam178875795yHardware in general has reached the ceiling of CPU speed,
So instead of making CPU faster, they add more cores and more cache -
@nam17887 yepp.. Although 8 cores is an optimal setup. Anything above makes the efficiency grow slower, bcz syncronization takes more time [limitation is speed of light]. Also bigger caches can cause longer sync times

galena71925y@Parzi What happend? My 2GB Galacy Alpha ran Android 5 just fine? Did Google do the same shit they did with chrome?

Parzi88335y@JFK422 recommended amount of usable RAM for A8 is 4GB (IIRC) plus the Huawei custom kernel leaks memory like a goddamn garden hose which doesn't help.
I think I still have a 64MB HDD somewhere on a shelf at my late grandpa's house.
Now they make CPUs with caches of that capacity...
o tempora..
EDIT:
FFS! This CPU cache contains >44 floppy disks! I've never even had that many!!!
