In the late 90s and early 2000s, I could not have imagined a scenario where an editor takes up 200+ MB! The entire Office 97 suite was well under 192MB closer to 130MB! Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed was under 370 MB.
Memory usage now is also insane.
Office 2000 would run on 32MB of RAM and run really well on 64MB! Now a single tab on Firefox or any other browser on a static website takes up well over 400MB.
A single tab showing Facebook on my laptop takes up about 390MB! Even Hackernews website takes up 36MB!
I too want to go back to the days when things were a lot simpler.
For me the power of Object Pascal and Delphi was the ability to create reusable components that could be easily installed into the IDE. These components had powerful property sheets which could be used to set the values for their various properties etc.
Lazarus does fill that gap but somehow doesn't quite have the same feeling as the original Delphi.
The Free Oberon IDE looks like Turbo Pascal development enviroment from the late 80s and the early 90s. I wonder if it would have the concept of reusable components.
I just wish there were opensource OSs (not AOSP) like this for smartphones with full support for GPS, gyro, maps etc. But I guess that is not going to happen with all of the binary blobs.
You mean the experiments where they said there wasn't enough data to show that what-cannot-be-named may have adverse effects?
Now those adverse events are showing up but you will still insist that it cannot possibly have anything to do with what-cannot-be-named without even checking
Interesting project! It is the first time I am hearing of it. I understand that the LSP support is in progress. It would be great if an IDE similar to Delphi could be developed as well - but I know that is a HUGE ask.
However, this is not about age verification or protecting children. That is just the excuse they are using.
If Meta, Google etc could easily have algorithms in place for determining the age of the person seeing the video - apart from having the override capability via a parental login as you have stated.. but these platforms have consistently refused to limit the type of content they are showing to children.
What a stupid move! way to make things worse for yourself! Some people have such low impulse control it is just unbelievable the sort of damage they can do to themselves and others.
