Do you recommend Brave over Chrome? Does Brave use less RAM and CPU?

Brave

- it rids you of Google's spyware
- it blocks trackers and ads out of the box
- in doing so, pages will load much faster and will require less bandwidth since less bloat is downloaded

I don't have the data to back it up, but the first point alone would make me think it's more lightweight in terms of RAM and CPU load.

If you use the opensource version of chrome then i recommend that.

On my pc running linux, the opensourve chrome opens up much faster then brave.. but that was to be expected since brave just adds its on shit

If you want convinient and privacy features built in then brave is nice.

@joewilliams007chromium

If I must pick from those two: brave.

If I can pick a related browser: chromium.

If I can pick another browser: firefox.

If I were to pick something entirely by security: Tor or Lynx.

I use Firefox and Brave for testing now instead of Chromium. Wanna know what works in user environment that has ad blockers and not make such users feel left out, at the same time not let big tech corp inspect my every move.

i recommend Opera GX, where you can set ram and cpu usage limits any way you want, and the browser actually adheres to those limits.
watching 1080p movie? give it all the ram and cpu it needa/you want.

listening to a podcast in background while playing elden ring? knock it down to 5% cpu and max 1gig ram...

i know i sound like an advert, but it really is awesome.

btw pls report jacobhue spambot

@ess3sq or you can just install AdBlock

...did I already say that I really would like to hug you and transmit loads of warmth and comfort to you because you're a great person?

i probably did. anyways, whatevers, i still feel that way, and... you're awesome. no, i'm not a desperateguybeinghookedjustbecause, i've grown out of that.

just... i feel you, i'm borderline loser and everyone hates and despises me in my works, because i'm insufficient and loosery, but i understand the shit you're going through because even in my slackluster position i go through similar stuff, so... i can multiply by effort and quality to understand how much more energy and minddestroying effort it must take for you to be as awesome as you are, and... it hurts. it makes me respect that you're still going, let alone still going at this cadence, quality, intensity.

@Root

i can do nothing to help, probably even if i could hug you and be there it would do nothing to help, even if i were the right person to hug you to help...

but...

I respect you to the level that I would love to be able to one day respect myself, due to the effort and energy and skill and self-sacrifice you're putting into what you'e doing, the level that I would love to be able to put into things....

And I admire you for all of it. I envy you for being able to do all of it, even though, you're having regular collapse episodes...

...and also that's kinda why i kinda wish I was in some way relevant to your life and soul, so that I could tell you "seriously, start fucking over all those fuckers", and for it to have the power to make you think "huh, he might be right", because that would help you, that would make you switch gears and switch to the route of not fucking killing yourself by tolerating morons.

@Root

i don't remember what the movie was, but i saw a movie about some chess genious breaking down when he thought about chess too much... and... it didn't make much sense to me, how can he be biologically breaking down thinking about it...

...your posts kinda explained it to me.

and you need to stop.

PLEASE.

not stop doing IT, just stop gulping down all that bullshit.

PLEASE.

stop braking yourself, start being asshole to all of them telling them to go fuck themselves, along with fishing for a new position and company in canse, but I FUCKING BET...

I FUCKING BET... that if you stop gulping down all their shit... they'll back down (hopefully), because they all know you're fucking keeping the whole thing together, and they're just dunking on you because you're being too soft. and when you stop being too soft, they'll panic, and realize...

..and if they don't... you'll already be on your way to another job.

stop. letting. morons. step. on. you.

please.

@Root

go for the "i wanna see this place burn unless they start listening" approach.

please.

you have the power. you have the credentials. you have the anger to do it.

please do it.

make them all fucking bow finally.

@Root

fucking seriously.

Stop giving a shit about anyone but yourself. You know all the inept overpaid consultants stories.

You can be an actuall ept properpaid consultant, while being the same kind of warranted shit to everyone around.

You should definitely do that.

@Midnight-shcode I don’t know what to say, except ♥️! I also don’t know what I’ve done to deserve all of that, but I really needed to hear it today.

And you’re right that this place is terrible. I really do need to leave. This place is … I’d rather die than stay.

I’m redoing my resume this weekend.
