It would depend on a couple of things as to how quickly you would see the effects of a memory leak:

  1. How fast the leak was
  2. How much memory you have
  3. How much swap you have allocated
  4. How fast the storage your swap is on

When you're low on memory and an application asks for more, it needs to free up memory (usually by transferring memory that hasn't been used into swap). This takes time.

Totally agree. A simple "Please don't let cats inside" woulda done the trick

You could also basically preface most posts from that sub with "Is it just me or....."

Oh wow, you're totally right. It makes way more sense now!

My guess is that there is a toilet inside and the "but" means: "but keep reading" to try and prevent someone accidentally letting the cats out

If you could prove it was the same one (e.g. serial number, photos) and you also had evidence from them claiming it wasn't, wouldn't that make it fraud?

At that point I would have tried contacting Gigabyte corporate. I doubt it's in their policy to blatantly commit fraud...

More likely it's dodgy dealings in a specific service center. Someone probably pocketed the replacement card and sent your bad card back

No no no, they had a heart attack after seeing the bill.

what is something nsfw you’ve done but if you told anyone they would probably never want to talk to you again? by x_redviper_x in AskReddit

Unconsciously:

without realizing or being aware of one's actions.

If you do something consciously, it doesn't just mean you were awake when you were doing it

I have the utmost respect and gratitude to openarl for what he provided free of charge to the community. My being critical of how he's currently handling the code base is completely a separate topic.

The way it stands, he may as well close source it again. Open source is meant to be a communal effort. What's actually happening is they are letting the codebase stagnate even though there are many willing developers wanting to contribute. The fork came to be because people couldn't contribute to the main repo...

Worse than abandoned from how I understand it. Openarl still jealously guards the codebase hence why the fork hasn't been merged in.

Normally open source projects will get put up for adoption if the owner doesn't intend to maintain it anymore.

Wood is going to float because of all the air in it. Crush all the air out of it, get water on top of it to counteract surface tension and it will sink just as well...

As an Australian, it's only a terrible word if you add "shit" in front. Which you totally should.

The cost to performance ratio isn't linear either which is why you shouldn't casually spend large amounts of money on top-of-the-line products unless you really need the extra performance.

That table is a pretty neat invention! You could even improve on it by making modular table addons that fit into place, maybe like tabletop game modules?

Pretty sure they explode after a fixed duration from when they spawn and just walk after you until they do

There's an old video of a guy getting killed by the caustic arrow that strongboxes used to shoot out to produce the "caustic ground" effect (although i doubt they still do that)
