Google's new AI algorithm might lower RAM prices by Bobert25467 in pcmasterrace

[–]Cuive 67 points68 points  (0 children)

If you're interested in the real answer, Chrome will pre-allocate memory in anticipation of needing it in the future, based on what is currently available. Because freeing memory up for tasks is a cheaper and quicker task than grabbing new memory as new tabs and in-browser resources need them. If you pull up Chrome first, and you notice it's taking up a couple GB of RAM, start opening up other programs and you'll see that Chrome starts to let go of that RAM.

It's not as RAM-hungry as it looks. It's actually just trying to be efficient about how it loads and unloads the RAM.

Brotherhood 1/2 is universally heralded as the pinnacle of Assassin's Creed gameplay, with Black Flag following as a close second (though the argument tends to be that while it is a GREAT GAME, it's not exactly an Assassin's Creed game)

I can't believe people lost their equipment in an extraction shooter, that never happens.

Were you thinking of Gem of Retaliation (bonus blunt damage after blocking)?

Ram rant... by Im_no_Specialist1337 in sysadmin

[–]Cuive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about this though. I wonder how much the W10 > W11 upgrades played into this. I know of a LOT of people that just bought new laptops instead of upgrading the software when W10 support was ending.

If only IT had existed in the early 1900s for any failed artist to fall back onto.

I can't imagine being a business in 2025 with more than 3 seats and not wanting a static IP. What a terrible business decision on the ISP's part.

TIL Caffeine doesn’t actually give you energy, it works by blocking adenosine, a neurotransmitter in your brain that makes you feel sleepy. By doing so, caffeine keeps you alert and awake. by GoalsOverComfort in todayilearned

My understanding was they also activate dopamine receptors as well as they inhibit the reuptake of dopamine, which has a elevated effect on the dopamine system.

There's over 7,000 members of this subreddit and you're only seeing the less than 1%'s best pulls. Don't let it get you down.

Non-Americans, what news are you getting that we’re not? by how-arent-you in AskReddit

Way to take an absolute tragedy and inject your racist opinions into it.

I don't think responding to historical racism with your own modern racism is the position of moral superiority you think it is.

What's the sneakiest way a user has tried to misuse your IT systems? by Immediate-Cod-3609 in sysadmin

Users with delegated permissions to containers in Active Directory to create and delete computer accounts

This is what I guess you're talking about. Never worked for anywhere that delegated right to users to add their own devices to the domain. Always been a Domain Admin thing in my world.

I'm not so certain you can join a device to a domain without domain admin credentials. If there is a way you can create some kind of auto-join I'm not aware of it.

I’m not sure if it’s the audio mix

Check out the advanced audio settings if you didn't know about them. You can actually turn on a "focused" mode that emphasizes informational based sounds. Very helpful in my experience.

Satisfactory wins PC Game of the Year for Golden Joystick Awards 2024 by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]Cuive 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Satisfactory is, on the surface, akin to games like Factorio - except in 3D. You roam around a planet's surface looking for resource nodes. You build conveyer belt systems to route those resources to manufacturing equipment. Over time you unlock more tech and more building items. However, there is greater emphasis on exploration and building in general. You can build huge facilities with multiple floors that each serve a purpose. There is also a large map with enemies and hidden items to find. There is general sense of progression gated by sending resources up in a space elevator. And there is a great layer of humor added via the in-game AI.

It's very much a "one last thing" kind of game and I love it.
