  • What's best these days? 16Gb slow memory, or 8Gb fast

    Jump

  • I'm not really doing anything where FPS is an issue, the only slowdown I notice at the moment with 4GB of ram is that it swaps out when I'm doing something sticky in Gimp ... though reducing swap use can only be good for my SSD

  • Well, I'm currently using a 12 year old Thinkpad with 4GB of ram without problems, so I'm not entirely swayed about 8GB not being enough

  • Yeah, I just wasn't sure if Linux would need any swap for the sort of things I'm doing if there was 8Gb available.

    I do notice the swapping on my current machine when I'm fiddling with photos, but that has 4Gb and otherwise works quite nicely

  • Yeah, I just wasn't sure if Linux would want more than 8GB for the stuff I'm doing. There's a 20%ish difference in clock speed, though I know that doesn't necessarily line up with a speed difference there would be some

  • I have a period tracking app, and log when I randomly burst into tears over every stupid thing for a day or two. It's about once every four weeks.

    I don't cycle my HRT or anything.

  • Thanks, yeah I'm not doing anything strenuous. Just having more than the 4GB in my current machine will make the biggest difference.

    The mismatched ram has been working ok for several months for my partner, and they push the machine pretty hard.

  • The reason I wasn't sure is that I have 4GB in my 12 year old Thinkpad, and it seems to do ok most of the time, lol

    But I know everythings just going to get heavier and less optimised, so the more the merrier ... thank you

    Thanks for the example from real world use

  • Results vary greatly. I know some women who enjoy it and things work well on a mechanical basis ... for me, it was painful regardless of what went in how.

    I did dilation regularly for a year, tried small flexible dildos, everything. Even a finger was painful.

    So I gave up and let it atrophy. 15 years later and I can come just fine from external stimulation, and since I'm not into men I've never felt like it holds me back.

  • Before surgery gatekeeper: Oh once you settle in, you won't need to dilate, just enjoy time with your boyfriend regularly.

    Me: Yeah. Boyfriend. Which is a real thing that I totally have.
