You forgot that beauty - "undefined behavior"!

Memory-safety can guarantee only so much safety! C++ can still blow up in your face, even with all the alleged memory-safety built into C++, thanks to all the UB traps in C and C++.

Rust is the closest language that has no such "gotchas".

Meh, I never need more than 2G usually and that too only when Firefox is running.

The Windows XP and Windows 7 I have are also from my university, from a long long time ago.😃

I have probably a couple of more Linux/BSD VMs than here (with some with GPU passthrough and one or two for ARM crossbuilding and so on) but only 2 Windows VMs - the only 2 I have legitimate licenses for.

But am I normal? Most would disagree. 😅
