>Businesses are smart and competent enough to postpone any patching for a week or two.
Sorry, you are incorrect. Even volume licenses bundle unknown feature patches into security patches. Businesses get fucked just as consumers do by running jeetcode to meet security compliance.

This would not be an issue if Microsoft had simply kept security patches separate from feature patches. Them deciding to incorporate non-security patches into security-listed patches is probably the most malicious thing they have done since their (unproven, but rumored) involvement in the development of the clipper chip.

Programming frameworks and library's are bloat if they are not needed. They consume ram, disk space, and time loading into memory and executing instructions. If these steps are not required to achieve the outcome (searching and filtering and displaying results), then the library and/or framework is considered bloat.

Bloat is not purely performative waste, it sometimes has tangible or intangible benefits (typically for the developer or product stakeholders). The gain from including bloat is typically development time reductions due to automation or copy pasting an existing implementation.

In other words, the LLC that hired the jeet told him to slap it together in react using 27000 npm libraries and shove it into an electroon wrapper so they can ship pretty garbage with built in data collection to any device/target in 8 weeks for massive profit.

Enjoy your hot trash retard.

idk how many torrents you'd need to have before it would even start using close to 4gb ram.
if you don't need extra ram it's better to have it 32bit.

Win32 code tends to have a bloated line count because most of the functions have many parameters and so each function call is like 7 lines of code. Pic related.

There's 2 of us responding, I'm the worst one. Go back up the thread and carefully watch the first minute or so of the YouTube video I linked.

Built in Windows search running in the "start" menu (which is actually written in react fyi) sends you search query to a bing API endpoint every time you type a character into the search bar.
P
Pa
Pai
Pain
Paint

It fires off another http request to the bing endpoint for every character you type and waits for the response to display results because... Drumroll please

The results are returned from the server as a blob of text to display in the start menu.

You have bloat, built in telemetry, a terrible waste of bandwidth and compute from a shit software design, and best of all, the UI update is held hostage by the network request.

Then maybe rather than writing half arsed scripts to be tested by malcontents on 4chinz you could do some work on the code of fzf. You know since it's open source and a collaborative effort.

It's a fuzzy finder, not a file manager.
cat somebullshit.txt | fzf | something else
or
$(cat somebullshit.txt | fzf)
or
echo $(one-liners.zsh | fzf) | source /dev/stdin
All it does is display stdin, provides a way to search/match/select lines from stdin, run arbitrary commands in subshells, and pipes the selection to stdout.
That's all fzf does and all fzf needs to do. It's a general purpose command-line tool that you can use to make CRUD applications.

Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

Remember how people always said Windows dominates the PC market because practically every new PC comes with it preinstalled? In India many people buy last-generation used PCs, and online sellers often preinstall those with Ubuntu because they don't have to dick around with Windows editions and matching the license that the machine originally came with or risk being raided by Microsoft. Normies make up the majority of users, and they will just use whatever OS their computer comes with.

I don't need more power. I want something that makes it very simple to get the answer I want very quickly. For 90% of small computations I can pick up my cheap casio and get the answer in less time that it would take to open excel or start r studio and dismiss the annoying update popup or launch windows' awful webshit calculator app.

If I need repeatability or documentation or to do something with lots of data or calculate something that I need the specialist software to do I'll get out the big guns but a lot of the time I don't and the calculator is just better.
