So, someone asks "why would anyone need 8GB of memory". I describe one situation where I need that amount of memory. Can the downvoter please explain why this comment is objectionable?
Edit: my question is not rhetorical, I really would like to know.
- masklinn 15y agoCan't say i found anything objectionable to your comment (while I'm not doing that kind of stuff, in my day-to-day web development I have to juggle with virtual machines and 8GB RAM is also a bare requirements to be able to work correctly without the machine swapping to death), so I put you back above threshold.
- MatthewPhillips 15y agoI didn't downvote you but I would guess it was the hyperbolic wording of "insanely low" and "unusable".
- masklinn 15y agoHow is it hyperbole? If the machine can not support the workloads it will be put under, how is it not unusable for him?
- deong 15y agoAlso not a downvoter, but it's hyperbole because he didn't qualify it by saying that he has very particular needs. It would be like saying, "the Ford Excursion is an unusable piece of junk due to the lack of interior space...I can't even fit my 42 foster kids in it for a trip to Disneyland."
