Can't relate, just upgraded my laptop from 32GB to 64GB since VScode would keep closing due to OOM. What? Oh, no, it's not vscode's fault.....I keep like 5 Firefox windows with 30+ tabs open, like a fucking maniac..... Close them? What do you mean "close" them?
Only 30 tabs, you need to bump those numbers up!
I had around 1500 open tabs in Firefox. It was fine. I figured enough was enough and closed them all. Now I close all tabs at the end of the day before shutting down.
What is "shutting down"?
Wait, do people shut down their computers when they're done using them?
I know I did on the desktop PC we had at home when I was a kid... But now the desktop doubles as a homeserver (and does that more than it does gaming lately) and the laptop just goes to sleep rather than shutting it down.
I have a separate home server, so I don't have a reason to not shut down my desktop PC. No reason for it to be using electricity while it's doing nothing.
I shut down my laptop because suspend/sleep support on Linux still isn't great.
