Title kind of says it all but it’s still baffling. Running an old ass amd fx with 24 gig ram in the other computer. Work laptop is an i7 with 64 gigs of ram and is still slower in daily use. Both have ssd boot drives.
Granted im comparing desktop and laptop. But a 15 year difference is pretty crazy to me.
The internet will also bring even a modern machine to it’s knees. I recently upgraded my computer at home because the poor 8th gen 6 core i5 was crying in pain. Thanks modern web devs.
Fuck web devs
No, I dont need 30 JS scripts from font.net, google, shopify, sentry, and some bullshit to run in order to look at your Website. I dont need your site to be a fucking unparseable slideshow because every text is a JS script so it can glow in rainbow colors. If I scroll, I want to scroll your goddamn website and not look at a video that only play when you scroll down.
I want a static website that 90% consists of text and <br/> that I can download with curl and view like it was the real one.
