Alternatively you can open about:config and limit memory usage there. For example limit in-memory cache.

EDIT: it seems firefox doesn’t allow to set RAM limits yet, only cache sizes

systemd-run? Wtf?

Do vmtouch -t /

funnily that is/was one of the Lemmy creators: Nutomic :)

Plot twist

and I don’t mean, following what the computer science methodology tells you, I mean having an idea of the best way to translate an idea into a logical solution that can be applied in any programming language,

But that IS computer science.

devs who use macs

Do they exist? Are you sure they are devs?

Didn’t even know it

For me “The Critical Flaw” of rust is its compiler. And requirent of 12 GB of disk space to compile just the frontend of compiler. Even GCC will all frontends(C, C++, Ada, Fortran, Modula-2, JIT) requires less space.

But joke is probably about “rewrite in rust” culture.

Yeah. You can run Prefix even on Android. And then there is project SharkBait.

Portage Prefix is a thing too

Did first 8 plans fail?

Very interesting thing. Linux Namespaces were inspired by it.

You use SteamOS btw?

Let us not talk about situations where CHAR_BIT != 8 that’s not POSIX anyway.

Yeah, let’s not talk about 20-bit one’s complement ints.

man strncpy

If n is smaller than the string length (as in: distance to first null byte) then you’re bound to have garbage in your return destination

Wha? N is just maximum length of string to copy. Data after dst+n is unchanged.

In retrospect null-terminated strings were a mistake, but so were many other things, at some point you just have to accept that there’s hysterical raisins everywhere.

All hail length-prefixed strings!

Meanwhile mathematicians working on cryptography: the universe will die before you get even 10% chance of cracking encryption.

Security by obscurity is no security.

Got crowdstruck

Oh no. You tell them forbidden knowledge of reading manual.

strncpy becomes stringnumbercopy. You can see why short version is used.

Nvidia doesn’t let Linux to have good drivers. They go out of their way to not let to write completely opensource drivers.
