Microsoft admits 8GB RAM is fine for Windows 11, after years of pushing 16GB as the baseline
Reply in thread
8GB is enough for Windows 11. Issues only arise if you open any applications while Windows is running.

I don't engage with algorithmic content. I used Reddit through RSS and I browse Lemmy the same way.
The problem with doing that on Reddit is that there was so much trash in my feeds I ended up developing my own filter system to make scrolling through it manageable. It got to a point where it felt like I was spending more time blocking content than engaging with it. Lemmy's smaller population means I'm spending less time reading and commenting, and spending more time doing other things with my life.

Switching from Reddit to Lemmy did wonders for my mental health. Less time doom scrolling, more time to engage with my hobbies

You have control over what you see in your feeds. I was talking more about the volume in content on my feeds here. Could've worded my post better.
I'm spending more time away from social media.

But there's nothing stopping you from creating a believable rule set for your magic system. There's a reason why Fullmetal Alchemist is so good.

Thunar also calls them folders in the properties window.

Back in the thick of it, it was easy to get sucked into the hype when game graphics tech was progressing so quickly...
These days I mainly emulate older games. Fun games are fun.

You can no longer Google the word 'disregard'
If you type it in, the AI won't do anything, but web page results look fine under that?

I'll try something different next install, I swear.
I tried lots of DE's when distros started switching to GNOME 3.
Now I just run Xfce on everything.
