Another YouTube "epic reaction" video! I can't wait to see how this three-plus-hours-long one differs from the 37 billion other epic reaction videos!

Yeah, I was gonna say... it's probably not Gnome itself that's the memory hog, it's almost certainly the demands from the web browser and / or email client. *

We have a computing lab which runs Linux + Gnome. Students are in the GUI almost all the time, but they're mostly running various engineering applications - they're not checking their personal email, and typically they're not randomly browsing the web. If there's only one or two students on there (remote access does get used a lot), htop typically shows < 2GB of memory usage - and almost no load.

* Not that I particularly want to defend Gnome; I think, design-wise, it's become a rather user-hostile window manager.

I think I understand why he never got anywhere with these. And no, it wasn't because of the web...

Apparently Waze exists for the sole purpose of avoiding speed traps.

I never knew that... guess I've been using it wrong all these years. I use it to minimize the time I spend on my daily commute.

I mean, that's what people said about Michelle Obama when she proposed a lot of this stuff a decade or more ago...

"Skyrocketed" above 5%, you say?

"As this shocking graph indicates..." (sorry, I couldn't find a larger image)

Their toilet isn't working.

I was thinking along the same lines...

I'd say let the CEO do it. And when it goes south - which it will - make sure the CEO is held personally accountable for any misdiagnoses and deaths.

Wow, some pythonistas are sure touchy about their dog-slow language...

An oldie but goodie.

Back in my day, when my daughter was a kid, it was easier to keep tabs on what she was doing and who she was talking to. There were no iPads or smartphones. Our single computer was in the living room, so it was easy to keep tabs on what she was doing. ...Although half the time she wanted me helping her with whatever she was doing anyway. I got pretty good at those Disney games like Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin.

Well, the humans who are doing the laying off are themselves "blaming" AI, so...

They probably wanted a scripting language that wasn't a total dog when it comes to speed.

Microsoft's apps were bloated pigs long before Electron was a thing. I'm old enough to remember hearing these sorts of complaints regarding Office 2000... and even earlier.
