If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

    Following up on a report:

    Sources which are structured towards a political belief as a mantra, ergo, “In defense of marxism” are more akin to party announcements, which we do not allow, even from the Whitehouse website, and definitely not from the DNC, RNC, etc. For this reason the post will be removed.









  • To the biggest degree it’s comfort elsewhere and numbers attracting numbers. To a smaller but still substantial degree it’s the same reason the top 3 phone brands have less customization and a more plug and play experience than rooted phones. It solves a huge amount of the problems with Reddit, but reddit is simpler to join, simpler to understand, feels more secure, and has so many communities and active users that even inactive communities can look active by how many people mistakenly post there.



  • Depends on the OS. They can be chopped down by removing windows aero / transparency features among some other memory hogs, plus if it has an nvme or sata SSD then virtual memory can do some fast enough heavy lifting. That being said, I think the last OS Microsoft made that could run functionally on 4gb without significant virtual memory useage is Windows 8 and I wouldn’t wish that experience on you, nor recommend it for security reasons. If you use Linux you probably won’t need to upgrade for a long while with that easy workload.

    My pi 5 acts like a normal decent computer on Linux builds but windows would crunch it.

    Edit just to say that the main task you need to worry about is likely decoding. If whatever APU or GPU you have doesn’t have a built in ASIC for modern hvec then I could see it lagging significantly regardless of OS and memory size. You also mentioned browsing, which means I wouldn’t recommend staying with the last MacOS you can get for security concerns. Linux seems like the obvious choice.
