!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Memory leaks happen. I had one recently where the game crashed and I happened to have a system monitor open on the other screen.
My setup has 64GB of RAM. The game as it crashed was consuming 50+GB of RAM, leading me to believe it was eating up every last bit before finally biting the dust because the computer effectively cut it off from taking anymore and forced the game to close because it reached its threshold.
Granted I was using heavy cheats like god mode, infinite ammo, etc. lol
No swap space?
