It might not be a valid excuse, but it gets that kind of play in the press (and, therefore, public opinion/support) as discussed in this Citations Needed podcast episode A.I. Mysticism as Responsibility-Evasion PR Tactic

Employees should start setting up an AI to prove it can do Tobi Lutke's extremely difficult job of making a small number of important decisions every once in a while.

Hey, when's the last time you showed remorse to your multi-trillion market cap employer? Next you're gonna tell me something really outrageous like you didn't even swear an oath of fealty to them.

The URL you shared has an unnecessary user tracker in it and can be shortened to https://www.threads.net/@wongmjane/post/DIFF_P3B9u2

You should just maintain awareness of how much you're using. I think 32gb ram + 32gb swap is ridiculous, frankly. Fedora by default sets zram up to 8gb, with no other swap space configured. Works very well that way.

Personally I'd also probably not ever set up more than 16gb of swap space. If I'm somehow hitting that limit it's because I actually just need to buy more RAM.

Thanks. I've never used or recommended Telegram since Signal appears to be the obvious answer, though at least unlike Signal they actually take ownership and publish their own app themselves to places like Flatpak and provide aarch64 builds. Been waiting for Signal to do this for... forever.

Sadly, for many, participation ends at the ballot box. I'm sorry to say that I was that way before, too.

At this rate it seems like I will also never be upgrading from the 1070. Miners, NFTs, supply chain, AI, tariffs... how is an honest guy supposed to just buy a decent GPU when squeezed between all that bs?
