Why do you need so much RAM?
>>110215644he's right, why the fuck are you tech bros driving up ram prices just to generate anime images
>>110215683>just to generate anime imagesErm, actually it's called rendering 2D graphics in my eroge games
>>110215700those 2d graphics could be generated in the cloud>erogeno, no no! that is unsafe

He's right. Honestly, hoarding money in retirement accounts is selfish too. That money would be better spent funding SI research. Think of the possibilities; with enough funding, SI could end work altogether and make retirement obsolete.
>>110215644I have almost 200gb of ram in my house, including vramhaving lots of ram is like having a big comfy blanket while having just enough ram is like having a blanket that's just as tall and wide as you are
Remember when 2GB of RAM was enough to run an entire fucking computer? Now you need 32GB just to browse the web without your machine sounding like it's preparing for takeoff. Software has become so unbelievably bloated because nobody gives a shit about optimization anymore. Just keep throwing hardware at the problem instead of writing half-decent code. We've somehow managed to make computers more powerful and software worse at the same time. Absolute clown industry. We have to go back.

>>110215895It's been this way since the tech industry collectively decided programmer time is more valuable than end user's time.
>>110215895my first computer had 64 MB of ram and I now have literally 2024 times that and it doesn't mean much
>>110215644he is right in an autistic minmax way. if all compute is centralised is can service requests and hand out resources only when necessary, making it more efficient.ofc its retarded to say this and people are right to clown on him
>>110215823You don't need more than 16GB, at worst 32, but anything more than that is a waste of money.
Give your RAM to SAM!
manchildren ruin everything
*downloads 512GB of RAM from France*
>>110215644Altman is just scapegoating DRAM capacity stopping his plans for expansion. It is grid capacity and NIMBY-types that are the real culprits. If mentions them, the opposition will double down. He knows that mania is about to explode violently and wants to starve it off before 2027 rolls around.
i need to compile shit for my gentoo install
>>110215644I don't close tabs, and why should I have to? I work to earn money, I can spend my earnings on tabs, it's a free country
