      You can fill this RAM easily by running an LLM.

        Lol. I did try that. All the processors lit up to full for 2 min so it could understand highly nuanced and intricate questions like “What is the capitol of France?” I’ll ask it more questions when I need the room warmed up.

      I just built a desktop with 64gb of RAM. I could get by on 16 easily. Should I seek treatment?

        Nah, install a terminal multiplexer instead.

    That’s quite the URL. Is it named after one of Elon’s kids?

    Annoyingly long post totally misses the point of using tmux and chalks it up to “elitism”. So who’s really acting like an elitist contrarian??
