My old laptop took a shit, so I ended getting a Chromebook because that’s all I could afford. God dammit I fucking hate Google. This bloated piece of shit is slower than anything I’ve owned in the last 15 years. It can’t handle Facefuck and YouSlop being open at the same time.
Did somebody say 'RAM' ?

When I got my hands on one it disgusted me to see Google recommends throwing them in a landfill once they end support. I didn’t know people were just throwing these away. I mean how many got saved by someone with the tech literacy? 5%? Less?

You can always install a new OS and never use chrome, should help a bit

My chromebook exclusively runs firefox on arch Linux btw. I play steam games on 8gb of ram too.

Not on all, but most. Sometimes you have to remove the battery to get make the boot writable, then install something else, and reinstall the battery. Tricksy stuff.

It’s just Gentoo on the most boring profile chromium.org/…/install-software-on-base-images/ (not on “Googlebook”/“Aluminium” OS, that’s Android)
Try running
emerge firefox-bin, thenfirefox, go to extensions, get UBlock Origin and Decentraleyes, then see if Facefuck is any faster. Speaking of, why are you still on Facefuck? You are like the 1 human remaining there. Get off and it will be 0 for once.Smeagol666@crazypeople.online 2 hours ago
I’m old and all my old-ass relatives are still using Fuckerberg’s creeper app.

My heart goes out to all the corporate employees stuck using these pieces of shit.
I got moved to a team important and vocal enough to get thinkpads a year ago and it’s a night and day difference.

Using the RAM is far better than it sitting unused

I mean, why wouldn’t you?
The man’s simultaneously a joke and one of the few people colluding to (whether intentionally or not) crash the world economy once the AI bubble inevitably bursts.
I’d almost go so far as to say it’s your DUTY to ridicule him at every opportunity!

No. Shifting blame from the corporation onto the consumer is bad, actually.

Firefox does this now too. Takes up so much RAM it often times closes our some of my ram intensive games

Feels like websites should start listing system requirements. Why can my laptop run songs of syx with 10,000 citizens but it can barely navigate news websites? Why does Steam take up more resources than a game? Everything that views web content is bloated except for things like Lynx.
