That’s an interesting selection of two countries to pick

The backup itself was only ~8gb.

I basically never used swap until I used some script that was supposed to de-duplicate text messages from SMS backups.

Turns out feeding it a 100,000 message archive spanning back 15 years will somehow eat up ~80GB of RAM. I doubt it should, I guess it probably just wasn’t optimized for such a large amount.

So I made a 64GB swap file and it completed fine.

No

You ask your LLM of choice to look it over, completing the shit-cycle

It’s a mix - some functions are emulated but the CPU functions can be largely just passed through

you can’t prove they did.

I mean, depending on the scale you probably can with investigation.

The highest level employee/officer who had knowledge of it should be held responsible

Isn’t PS5 x86?

On a normal PC that’s more like specialized virtualization rather than emulation. It should run decent.

have no problem hanging out for 15+ min at a station, but I won’t do it every 2-3 hours because that’s all I’ve got.

And there’s me planning a 2000mi road trip in my '22 Bolt next month lmao. It’ll add several hours to my trip as each stop is 30min-1hr

(The old model Bolts charge pretty slow compared to most modern EVs - 50kw max.)

If I had a Hyundai or something similarly fast charging it would cut my trip by ~5 hours each way. But I almost never take trips over 300mi by car. A few times a decade, maybe.

Tbh the outside of my home is publicly viewable anyway. I can’t think of why I’d care much.

I will say at least with those you can still sell them, trade them, whatever. Unlike digital games.

The difference is more that they’ll be useless in 25 years or whenever Nintendo pulls the plug on the download servers.
