Yeah, but nobody wants to live in an area where the majority of people are vegans who actively want to pay twice the going rate at restaurants - just to show how gluten-free they are.
I was in a motorcycle accident and no one asked for insurance info until after my third surgery. Too many people overstate how bad the US has if wrt medical care.
Try having an illness instead. See how that works out.
Memory is useful. Using memory can make your app more useful. The amount of memory used under low-pressure is meaningless. More important is how the app deals with memory pressure. Are they filling memory with shit that can be swapped out without much performance loss (like background tabs)? Or are they filling it with over-complicated and bloated program state? Web pages are hyper-interactive, hyper-rich, highly abstracted applications. Browsers are platforms meant to deal with that sort of workload. Memory is one of many resources that can be brought to bear on that problem.
A couple of months ago I was forced to switch to 64-bit because opening a few tabs while watching Youtube was no longer possible in 32-bits.
To put it simply, we're all more willing to throw money at hardware or services than to throw money at tightening up existing programming.
Who's "we"?
I've got 16Gb myself so I'm not too worried. I'm just surprised that I was forced to update to 64-bit version a few months ago because I could no longer open a couple of web pages on the 32-bit version.
OTOH I know a lot of people who won't be able to use Firefox for much longer and aren't planning to buy a new laptop anytime soon. Firefox developers may disagree but 4Gb should be plenty for basic web + email IMHO.
Sometimes the Firefox fanatics will trot out a nonsensical, unrealistic benchmark showing Firefox having a slight edge. Yet these benchmark results are totally inaccurate and cannot be reproduced under normal, everyday browsing scenarios.
10% better than "completely unacceptable" is nothing to brag about.

Not true. Nobody over the age of 130 has ever died.
Fuck these smelly shitty hindu-chimps invading country with their shitty medieval poison and shittiest shit.
You seem to have a lot of experience with Indian scat.
Kinda like where the US is headed...
Kinda like where the US has gone.
FTFY.
The NSA leads the world in spying on citizens. The Stasi would be proud.
It took them a month for the NSA to ferret out one person, and God knows how many man-hours of work in that time.
Since the NSA doesn't share much with the FBI, I'm not too worried.
Sure, but now they have the code written and tested it will be much faster for the next one.
Real money also doesn't use 170kW/h of electricity for every transaction.
(current power usage of the Bitcoin network is 0.08% of the worlds production)

Time to face the truth methinks: Most people want to be spied on.
They're got nothing to hide and it makes everything that happens to them more relevant and personalized. What's wrong with that? (shrug)
Yeah, but nobody wants to live in an area where the majority of people are vegans who actively want to pay twice the going rate at restaurants - just to show how gluten-free they are.
And how fast did the very first maglev prototype go? I bet it wasn't 430km/h.
+1
Or use the widely-available backdoored method for convenience but with code words.
I find Red Bull a better mixer for bourbon.
Are other people such sheep that they would actually choose a place just because its busy without any other information?
That's a pretty common and sensible approach.
Wouldn't it take you about ten seconds to figure out the queue is fake? All you have to do is join it, and...then what? None of them are going in.

Transparent tanks are cool, sure, but when can I have my transparent aeroplane?
If the goal is driverless then why worry about field of vision?
Ummmmm, maybe because 'drivers' will have more time to look out of the window...?
...which is woefully insecure and you get to pay per message sent!
Yep. Making these drinks the social norm for kids is wrong.
Then again, CocaCola has been doing it for decades. Banning this would be anti-American.
It would surprise me if the relation was anything else than social. The same social groups that drink energy drinks also use more drugs.
Yep. Definitely got the cart and the horse the wrong way around here.
What's really needed is a version of Firefox that doesn't use so much fucking memory that we need a 64-bit version.
x86-64 is about much more than the address space.
Please enlighten us. Ignorant mortals might think they're compiling the exact same code.

Who cares? I have 16GB of RAM
Ummmm, let'[s see. That would be, "all the people who don't have 16Gb"
even running 2 games and my web browser I don't start paging.
Good job! You're amazing!

I have adblock, noscript, one to restart firefox, and ... not much else.
Absolute horse shit. Everyone loves meat, even vegetarians!
The real surprising part of all this is that meat eaters can also like vegetarian dishes.
If you give them a chance, and put some tasty good ones on the fucking menus.
