I think power draw is a better measurement for efficiency.
Making it more practical. Most people have more RAM than they need, but everyone is limited by battery capacity on laptops.
I suspect that packaging has a lot to do with it. I also value power draw as a better metric for determining efficiency compared to RAM usage.
"Canada" - love it!
I found a lot of the same. For me I resolved this by changing a few things.
- Abandon KDE plasma and Gnome.
- Avoid Snaps like the plague.
Linux mint Cinnamon draws 5w on idle only laptop. Ubuntu stock draws 8w. Manjaro plasma uses around 7w.
They are jealous of the Russian oligarchs like Putin. They want to be like him.
Reagan's policies laid the foundation for the capitalist fascism we see today. Since then American politics has been taken over by corporate interests.
The short answer is always: "it depends" :)
Ship designations are more based in function, than displacement. Frigates were traditionally designed to operate independently from fleets, where destroyers are generally escorts for fleet vessels, like transports, cruisers and carriers.
Cruisers were traditionally designed with specific missions in mind, air defence cruisers(Ticonderoga), anti-ship cruisers (Slava), etc
But cruisers are going out of fashion, with navy's opting for more capable Frigates and Destroyers over time, which is why the displacement has been growing.
I would support a law that requires software companies to open source software that they discontinue support on.
That way, companies that disappear don't have their customers at risk.
And software companies will support software for longer.
