My dude’s… I don’t even game and I’ve been maxing out every system for the last 10 years.

You should probably stop downloading trojan horse crypto miners.

I think that he means that he's added the maximum amount of memory that his hardware supports, rather than that he's been keeping his GPU computation capacity filled.

You know, that does make sense.

[–] sramder@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Yeah… I’ll keep that in mind 🤣

Excel really does need 32gb.... at minimum.

That I believe… it’s always been a little piggy, but you can do some creative shit with it especially if you’re bad a SQL, which I am 😝

Easy way to $100k is learning pivot tables and SQL.

Doesn’t quite go as far as it used to 😉 But for the record my goal back in the early 00’s was to break 85K :-)

I college in 2004 I won the stock market game in my Econ class. The professor gave me a Hundred Grand bar as the prize saying I'd be making that some day. I messaged him 2 years ago say I finally made $100k but it doesnt quiet feel like the same.

Also, if I invested $33k in Amazon then it be worth $2-million.

Nice! Really makes me regret community college… I think they charged me $1.25 for every one I consumed, roughly a 125% mark-up… wish I’d just bought one share 😉

Or stayed in CA doing IT 😌
