While this is a regular occurrence on higher-end sports cars with high-end forged (not cast/fake) alloy wheels … it’s usually in a high-speed crash where you can’t even recognise the car.

What did this dumpster do? Get bumped by a shipping cart?

Relaxed, tits totally calm, in my lane.

Oh, I’m not disagreeing with it being weird, my main point was to switch the weirdness towards battery use as nothing else matters.

And CPU doesn’t bottleneck RAM usage.

As for use case (which again, I’m not disagreeing as my main point is “it wouldn’t affect you in any way other than battery” + “they prob went with the cheapest option that still works, just like they did with CPU”), prob apps being fully in RAM and not swap, not closing old apps, etc. So like FF & 3 chat/social media apps (they all have inefficiently big libraries), a few store and service apps (for car/taxi/food delivery/etc), none need to leave RAM. Idk how to get to 32, but perhaps over 16.

And again I point out that it’s just what they did for the project to survive, it’s clearly frankensteined from the cheapest sensible parts. In your analogy the i3 with 32 or 128GB of RAM, if sold at the same price, will preform the same for most users.

Bus already pointed out about actually having the chance to use the RAM.

In regards to cost - I would be confident they chose what was optimal, you can’t compare this to retail PC market, these are specific b2b deals, they could have literally gotten the 32GB chips significantly cheaper than 16GB.

What I’m not confident is battery usage, 32 giggies will use twice the power (which isn’t a lot but it is all the time, you don’t really turn off RAM) of the exact chip in 16 giggler flavour.

CPU bottlenecking isn’t really RAM related. And I wouldn’t say nowdays 5 year old CPUs are outdated (like a 5yo chip 10 or 15 years ago). I would use my phone much as my PC, so an old CPU but plenty of RAM sounds about what I want.
Also it’s Linux, not some bloated megacorp OS, so it’s a bit better, tho apps remain much the same (eg browsers & web pages).

The new eMMCs are 400MB/s (so SATA-ish level) with random writes about there as well, it depends what specifically they’ll be using. It’s also more power efficient than SSDs, however it can’t address more than 256GB (so consider SD speeds too).

There also isn’t anything wrong with having a lot of RAM if it doesn’t impact the battery considerably. Which it prob does.

Not one of the four wheels broke off - prob fake.

Oh, I’m interested in diffident small gossip - I would like to observe chicken politics, and bee politics.

All the disputes, daily fads, coups, 1:1 bonding rituals, etc.

I need this but in a civilised polandball style.

Ngl, that sounds like classic Gizz wagon activities.

… did the broken off ass of the dumpster damage the roof of the car?? Lmao, it’s not even safe to crash into.

“Accidents” being a normal carwash etc :D

Lol, yes, exactly what I wanted - to see the thiccn’t of the soft frame, and the actual inside of the frame.

Thx!

Exactly.
The design is just bad all around. And I’m sure the engineers knew it, it’s too obvious.

But in the unrelated interest of sharing my mental pain I’ll share with everyone how I pictured someone taking their nice long shit of some consistency and carefully trying to wrap that log around a pole (a bit nervously looking around if anyone is watching). My brain is a fuck, but I don’t know any better, never have.

I’m thinking this is an option you cannot opt out of.

(It’s def very unique the way these boxes fall apart compared to any other vehicle tho. Has someone done a tear-down? Like, Jerry from the tubes style?)

Maybe ‘the same way windows is’ IBM-DOS

Soon to be closed-software Linux??? /s

You are right.

They are also about data security, so nobody can just erase, modify, or destroy/lose data. And all that applies to data handling and access as well.

Anything that logs all the communication.

Govs have their own apps, email servers, various other web-based tools to exchange data, etc. Usually also gov hardware (ie can’t use/access such gov apps on non-gov phones).

It’s not “what’s better” it’s what is mandated/required/the law.
Much like when you get a regular average job you have to use whatever is permitted - company email is the usual, can’t just deal with company data over your private email account where the company has no oversight.

Yes, ofc, using Signal was intentional to not keep any records/evidence.

Signal is the place for top secret communications, but not for any government business, top secret or not (at least not when using a public instance - they could fork the project to keep decryptable records on gov servers where the official gov instance would run).
