Why does Fedora use so much fucking RAM? I look at other Plasma distros with envy over the fact they use under a gigabyte of memory at idle while Fedora KDE is using like 3 fucking gigs after a cold boot NOT INCLUDING CACHE.

That's the problem then. Any properly made OS will reserve as much memory as possible to make the system as responsive as possible. If you want your distro to use less RAM then reduce your RAM down to 8GB.
>>
>>107836239

Like I said in the OP, that's excluding the cache.

From your screenshot the 1st char is unicode codepoint E115, which is specified as "private use". That means it has no assigned glyph and is intended for custom fonts to use their own made-up glyphs.
On cytube itself it looks like they're using a webfont called "Glyphicons Halflings" which is being served from this url: https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.1/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot

Since it's a webfont you shouldn't have to install anything, it should just work. Unless your browser is disabling webfonts.

Hey I need help, I just installed a new AMD gpu and now I can't change my display settings. My old card was a nvidia card. When I first booted up it was in fallback mode but I turned off the nvidia drivers in startup applications and now it's in 1080p but I can't change it back to 1440p. Also command center doesn't show the new gpu. Help!

I'm on Linux mint cinnamon, 22.1

On top of that, people that contribute code to your project are the owner of their own code. By contributing the code to your project they give you the right to use it under the same license as your project (and they dont have the right to request you to remove their code), but they can for example upload their own code somewhere else under a different license or even proprietary

Java arrived first and got more libraries and the JVM for every platform.
C# didn't get the ecosystem and the CLR was Windows only for quite a while.
Ant, Maven and Gradle are way more palatable than the trash that is MSBuild.

not the guy you asked, but apple published a paper a while ago that showed these models are insanely brittle when you change the prompts for the puzzles by even a little bit. stanford researchers found that they could get models to basically regurgitate 95% of scraped books under certain circumstances.

it's hyperbolizing, but not by much, to say these systems are huge lossy/stochastic compression systems. like great, i can get 96% of harry potter or a new york times article if i prompt for it. no shit, because they scraped that data and an LLM is just a statistical model of the documents you trained with.

i can find the citations for the stanford and the apple papers if you want, but my hunch is the other guy might point to them and i'm lazy right now

If it came to that, same as the Templars getting their cheque cashed, the government would arrest the central bank's directors, and declare the outstanding debt forgiven, because, as has been a lesson throughout history, forgotten in our decadent age, a contract is nothing without the means to enforce it ,and if the other guy has an army and you don't, tough luck.

Might have found a possible solution to my 490 pro problem. I discovered the cushion strip at the top of the headband is removable. If I do that there is just enough room to get them over my ears. But if I do that there is a bare wire exposed and I'm worried if I leave it like that sweat and other stuff might get up in those cracks. How risky would it be to leave it like that?
I was thinking would it be safe to run a strip of duct tape over it so it's covered up at least? Could duct tape have any adverse effects on it over time?
