No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

+1 For meshroom Used it with side hobbies. Was fun! ๐
You can run AI Models in it. Probably ones with 70b or up to 60b of you want to do other stuff while running them.
I built my PC recently and splurged to get about 100gb of ddr5, thinking it was going to be a waste of money.
I couldn't have been more wrong, there are occasionally times when I'm almost running out of memory. How? Multiple desktops, each with tons of programs and stuff open, including probably like several hundred Firefox tabs open at the worst of times.
Basically, extra ram has allowed me to kinda postpone the responsibility of having the close programs, maintain cleanliness, etc. I still have to stay organised using desktops so I don't go crazy with the number of things I have open, but I'm the limiting factor here, not my computer. And that's a super liberating feeling.
TL;DR: you can NEVER have too much ram.
Does it have RGB? If not just bin it. It is worthless anyway.
im sorry but you can't do anything with it i guess you're fucked
Same thing you can do with half a hole. Fix it to keep your mind from wandering.
Depends.. If it's DDR5 it might not work with the other stick.. I was unable to add on another 64GB to my desktop a last year and had to eventually just buy a whole new 128GB set.
You could build another computer/server and self host things..

Depends a lot. If you are going from 2 ram slots in use to 4 ram slots in use, usually the max clock speeds go down a lot. So the performance will decrease for just about everything you do, whilst the use case for such a setup is very limited.
I have a couple of extra ram sticks to get from 32 to 64gb when I need it. I bought them because I was debugging a rather memory intensive tool. Not only did the tool run in debug mode, which added a lot of overhead. The memory profiler needed to be able to make memory snapshots and analyze them. This just about doubled the memory requirement. So with 32GB I often ran out of memory.
However my Ryzen 5950X does not like 4 sticks of ram one bit. Timings need to be loosened, clocks need to be reduced and even then the system would get unstable every now and again for no reason. So I pulled out the 2 sticks going back to 32GB as soon as the debugging job was done. They are in a drawer in an anti static bag, should I need them. But for day to day 32GB with 2 sticks is a much better experience.
And that was with the same RAM on all 4 sticks?
Yes 4 identical sticks, same brand, same series, same type, same physical chips on the stick.
Unused RAM is wasted RAM.
More than I could do on my Apple IIe at 64k.
Run Minecraft and YouTube twice over.
Figure once over is why I moved to 32, so twice over might need more.
I have 64 and am about to upgrade to 128GB
I run windows in a VM. Nothing heavy, just to test some things on the shitty windows systems
I run multiple databases, MySQL, PostgreSQL, redis, MongoDB, memcached, all with extra memory available, for development
I run a large array of services directly and in docker containers. Transmission web, the ARR suite, jellyfin, next cloud, immich, onlyofffice, various PHP apps, the list goes on.
8GB is the bare minimum if you only browse 16GB Is the bare minimum if you also run other apps 32GB Is a good amount to work with 64GB is a requirement if you do development or have a lot of services 128GB is a normal amount for a developer
