So what's loading up a YouTube video like? 100% ram and CPU usage constantly?
youtube is older than most of his/her machines ;)
The website maybe, but not the browsers and their video players.. >;)
browsers are not the only way to watch YouTube ... mpv is older than most of his machines ;)
but yeah - i get the point
nevertheless there is a lot you can do with aged hardware - there are lots of desktops/windowmanagers which will happily run as well
As someone who first started to load programs into his computer with a cassette tape recorder, I'm aware of that.
Between that and apps on a phone, nothing else comes even close in the percentage of usage for viewing a video on the internet.
Thanks. ]:D
so you're older than his machines as well .... see - they are not that(!) old ;) :D :D
i love my thinkpad x1 3rd gen and wouldn't swap it for anything until it crumbles to dust :D
It's not so much about the age, but about the mileage.
