Massive memory pressure issues in c/firefox@lemmy.ml
[–] Meltrax@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I do too but I feel there should be the ability to manage tab memory in a more intelligent manner than just "gobble gobble".

Massive memory pressure issues (lemmy.world)
 

For reasons I have been unable to decipher, FirefoxCP Web Content is munching all the memory on my machine that it possibly can. I have gone through every about:config setting I am aware of or was able to find information about. Tabs should be unloading, memory settings should be deliberately restrictive, etc. However, my laptop is absolutely crushed by my browser.

I'm running the latest version of Firefox. I have UBlock Origin running but that shouldn't be this much of a lift. This is a 2020 MacBook Pro with an M1 chip and 16GB of RAM (I have no control over this. It's a work laptop. No, I can't just ask for a different laptop. Yes, I have tried.)

If anyone knows of tips or tricks I can use to hopefully restrict Firefox's memory usage ceiling, I'd be greatly obliged.

"They" (we) aren't being killed en masse.

Yeah, I feel like violence is evangelized online in odd ways.

The class that suffers the most in violent uprisings is the lowest class. By orders of magnitude. For every member of the bourgeois that is taken down, tens or hundred or thousands of every day people are injured or killed.

Super strength. I'm just always strong. Cool.

If shit is present tense, and shat is past tense, is there no future tense of the word shit? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] Meltrax@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Shall and will can be interchanged.

"Are going to" is slightly different. Still future yes, but is usually used to indicate intention rather than decisions.

"I will shit soon" and "I am going to shit" both mean basically the same thing but the connotations of those sentences are slightly different.

Vacuum sealers aren't too expensive. Sounds like if you've been struggling for years, you're overdue to just get one and be done with it.

Nouns don't need tenses.

Shit in the future and shit in the past.

Similar to many verbs that need an object, you add "will" to the present tense.

He will run. She will jump. You will shit.

Weird vibes here. This is a beta test for a feature update to the actual browser, the part we like using. Not some AI bullshit, the actual browser.

Try it out. See if it's good. Provide feedback if it's bad, that's the point. This isn't even an announcement for a change, it's an announcement for an opportunity to test a potential change. Just be happy they're working on the actual thing they should be, and provide constructive feedback.

Couldn't you achieve the same effect by just having a PiHole?

Syncing local server with seedbox (lemmy.world)
 

I torrent to a seedbox, and said seedbox has great access tools and you can install plenty of useful applications like Resilio Sync, Syncthing, etc.

My local server is running Fedora Server OS. I'd like to get an automated 1-way sync up and running, but I'm having a lot of trouble. I was using Syncthing in the past, but it's really not meant for one way syncs and caused some issues. I've been trying to set up Resilio Sync, but on Linux I cannot figure out how to get access to the web UI. Resilio's own documentation is frustratingly obtuse - it's great for setting up the service under systemd but then basically has nothing about how to actually get webui access from another machine on the local network, excrot for a reference to a command that doesn't actually exist.

If anyone either 1) knows how to set up Resilio Sync on a Linux machine such that I can hit the web UI from another machine on my local network or 2) had a better way to set up 1-way sync between my seedbox and my local server, I would love to learn!
