That's such a funny thing to say when like 90% of personal computers are basically used for browser and office, which both should be able to run perfectly fine on 8gb.

Windows has been actively going down a ram thirsty route for some time now.

You can easily have a fast and convinent system with 8gb of ram running most Linux distros with a browser of you choice and LibreOffice.

My laptop right now is running CacheyOS with KDE with 8 tabs on librewolf (one of which is a playing 1080p video) libreoffice writer and a system monitor, all of this on a 4k screen and everything is snappy. My ram usage? 6.5gb and no swap.

Windows 11 struggles to run smoothly on 8gb, let alone running multiple programs and videos playing.

So what the hell are you talking about?

Vim is worth learning minimally because it is so common, but U am team nano because I have enough info in my brain and I don't edit text files in the terminal enough to make it worth remembering how to properly use vim

I can run a gba emulator, an llm, a full os and a browser all at the same time with 4gb, so I think Windows is the compromise

Unpopular opinion:

Cars should come pre-configured with a speed limit matching tge highest speed limit in tge country (ie if tge highest legal speed limit is 120kph, all cars should have a default unchangeable limit of 120kph)

Medplum would be interesting for any developers who are building something, for sure.

Not really possible, you could do intranets but once you reach really long ranges (such as overseas, or even large unhabitable areas) any radio solution is going to be either really slow or really unreliable or both (and any physical infrastructure needs an owner to fund it and maintain it, coming back to ISPs)

Imo, in an ideal situation, the internet should be made of mesh intranets that are about city wide, and ISPs would be the ones connecting between these intranets, keeping the best of both worlds while also supporting and encouraging local services which would provide local economical growth on top of the advantage of federated infrastructure and local privacy laws.

Imagine every household has a router that instead of connecting to an ISP, is connected to a mesh network with all of the neighbors, and in each neighborhood there would be an ISP router that would act as the gateway to the internet. Anyone can freely join any intranet, while ISP connections would be paid (preferably by some sort of local authority and not per household) and just like today, anyone who has special infra needs can connect directly to the ISP by making an account.

The point is that:

1. It is being used for ut, even though it is obviously not capable of giving a reliable and realistic answer
2. It allows this usage, even though it is dangerous and not within it's capabilities
3. Each model gives answers that vary wildly, something that a human wouldn't do. A human wouldn't give you answers that are 10x more for the same question randomly.

Once you limit what kind of usage people can do with it (ie no commercial use) you are entering the source available section and not so much open source.

Usually in open source, when the creators are worried about commercial use, they use a license that enforces open sourcing any derived works, which means that any commercial use will only happen without any modification or with contributions to the community. The revenue model in such cases is usually tech support or an upstream closed source version.

For open source licenses you can checkout Open license helper

But what you are describing is either source available or closed source.

Do you want external input and to contribute to society? Open source

Do you want external input but don't want your code used in other projects? Source available (ie open source with very restricted licensing)

Do you not want any of that and just want to do your own thing? Closed source

A good thing to remember is that open source invites both good and bad criticism, as well as help, so it can help you improve but it can also be hard to handle the less than helpful people.

Also, like real life, the more you hide info, the less trustworthy you are. Open source puts you in a default trustable position for many people, while closed source puts you in a default untrustable position.

The UK?? They would never support colonizers!
