This is a test scenario.
I get this same problem with 32 GB of ram, Minecraft, Windows VM, Chrome, Firefox, and Thunderbird running.

I lose control of my desktop at this point and usually end up having to give it a solid 6 second power button restart.

I hate it and wish it would give me a chance to kill something to save the rest.

1) Magnetic forces, Plasma, and high electrical systems are in a great position to cause nuclear fusion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
2) The spectral readings of the elements are a result of the atoms emitting light due to being excited and releasing that energy. It is the electrical grid of the galaxy that lights up the star's matter. There is nothing to explain away, just a different way of explaining why what you see is happening. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Comment Gopher was my second step/ (Score 1) 225

Gopher was how I expanded out on the internet beyond paying crazy fees to send internet email over Compuserv. A few local bulletin boards offered access. I was in high school, so I didn’t have anybody around to tell me what the point of Gopher was, so it was like browsing a very nerdy newsstand. Today I often miss Gopher, because it had no images, no video, no Flash, no insane page layouts trying to sell me clickbait.
