Guess it was a bad time to download more RAM

See zram and zswap.

Fuck, me too.

Huh, TIL!

Gentoo? With 4GB of RAM? That sounds like a challenge!

I’m far from being the meme police, but I don’t think this is the template you’re looking for 🤣

Not that this is significantly better (or even funny), but this is a bit closer to how the template works:

The idea is that the cheeto represents a lazy or poor attempt at preventing whatever is coming in the top panel.

Huh? Is this implying that first past the post is a flimsy defense against an upcoming conservative majority?

It’s also 36 years old. I think we can cut it some slack 🤣

Hey, IRC was federated before federation was cool.

Gentoo nerds represent!

Let me preface this by saying I’m pretty anticapitalist, but I think the idea is that you create a new product or expand into a new industry. You can maintain growth for a long time that way.

The tip of the gun also appears censored. This is probably some misguided attempt to appease some algorithm somewhere.

Doesn’t this scene end with a perfectly painted room?

I literally switched to Racoon because of that post. Is it a community project now, and if so, link?

Well today I learned!

There is one “inherent use” (if I’m understanding that term correctly) of bitcoin, and that’s to pay for space in blocks. Again, that only gives bitcoin value if people want to use bitcoin, so take that as you will.

So… That isn’t exactly true. You’re correct that there’s a limit to the total and circulating number of coins, but if the world suddenly decides 1 BTC = US$0, it doesn’t matter if there are less coins tomorrow than today. Both days, each coin is still worth zero.

All that to say, there’s no guarantee that a bitcoin’s value will increase over time.

A penny saved is still a penny saved. I’m not saying it would amount to much, but it is non-zero.
