I guess, but it sounds like a very dumb word so I would use it to describe anything good or serious

To each their own I guess

DuckDuckGo has been giving me poor results lately - especially when I look for news, everything is a redirect to Bing now - so I instead use Brave Search. It’s kind of disappointing since DDG had always worked great for me

Yea they are so weird and annoying

So, why is electron a bad idea?

I wasn’t talking about that, but the weird history shame/cancellation movement

for me, for example, it means “people who are all over their head with cancel culture”; it also means people [who use the word] are probably a bunch of far right crazies.

So overall I guess it’s a way to describe the two far ends of the same thing

People don’t become like this,

TIL

Is this page listed as well?

micropenis!

I hope I will duck off before we go full dystopian

Stormtroopers are robots!

Jokes aside, you don’t have to have everything explained to understand something. Yes, they didn’t show the bodies but you with a little use from logic you can see that Leia complaining about her pacific, weaponless planet being blown means it’s not desert. Same goes for the Death Star on which you see there are people until a few seconds later where it blows up. Same goes for everything.

Sure, maybe a kid won’t pick it up but that doesn’t mean Star Wars was light hearted in the OT

Mine stayed the same lol, I was scammed

2 millions troopers died on Death Star!

-something… uh…. A big number

What were we talking about again?

that would change nothing to you. Unless they are seriously consuming a lot of memory and filling up processes while not needed, then it’s fine. Otherwise it means the app was developed by a bunch of monkey, but that could happen - maybe even more likely - with native software as well.

Tldr: to the end user it changes literally nothing nowadays, to the companies and the devs it changes quite a lot. And to some degree, end-users won’t have to deal with shitty ugly apps (unless the designers are jerks, in which case you are probably working in the same company as me)

Your kernel allocates all the ram anyway lol, it literally changes nothing to you

I use both daily, never noticed a problem. MacBook Pro M1 with 8GB ram. Eight!

Making a normal app costs much more than making an electron app, so I press X

Have you ever had, in good conscience, a problem caused by an electron app using too much resources?

Because we are, again, in 2023: the standard is 16GB of RAM, with CPUs much more powerful and with a lot of more cores and thread per cores than the past. Complaining about a PC resources being used when these doesn’t actually create a problem is like complaining about GUI being bloat; or JS/CSS being bloat.

This of course doesn’t mean electron is perfect, cause it clearly isn’t, but it’s a good enough solution that can be iterated upon (see Tauri) and improved (the DX on electron is shit). Nor that every app should be in electron.
