Antix made my old Chromebook’s usable. Old tech is fun.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Antix is the last one standing on the support of old hardware, also gentoo Debian and tumbleweed is good ones since they support WIDE range of architectures

It's not that hardware isn't capable, it's just manufacturer isn't willing. Or rather willing to not.

How goes the saying? 32 MB of RAM and always swapping?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I've heard Emacs as eight mb and constantly swapping (I use Emacs BTW)

I make sure my own web game can run smoothly on crappy hardware. It runs well on my gaming laptop downclocked to 400MHz with a 4x slowdown set by Chrome. It also loads in a couple seconds with a typical crappy Internet connection of 200kbps and >10% packet loss. However, it doesn't run smoothly on my Snapdragon 425 phone or my old Core 2 Duo laptop. Is this my game or just browser overhead?

I 100% agree. But, where Linux?

Can current Windows even work with 2GB of RAM?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

In 1000 years this meme/tweet/post will be what my entire generation's existence will be known for. Noone will remember the politics, the disasters, the geopolitical events good or bad, they will remember our entire world and existence ad the only time that technology advancement was driven by the big tech mafia trying to see how far it can get it's dick in your digital footprint.

It's the new cops v robbers or bootleggers v prohibition race. Our tech is getting faster to out run the corporate fuckin maleare but the faster we go the more they stuff in so to the avg user they're ended with paying $6k for a GPU/cpu combo that runs at the same efficiency as my school library's c9mputer did running ms-dos running Oregon Trail in 1995. You are so confined by only having access to functions with massive fuckiing app buttons that even logging in as a guest user req you to memorize every CLI ever made.

It's become my defining "I don't want to live in this world anymore"

You have my vote.

that's why I've been doing most of my gamedev stuff on an old craptop from 2016.
performance issues become apparent immediately

Can you even run Windows with just 2gb?

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yes it can!

Tiny11 is a stripped down custom build of Windows 11, which only requires 8 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM.

Someone even got it to run on 200MB of RAM.

I like how KDE has been getting faster and faster as time went on. Like Lisa Simpson's perpetuum mobile.
