VMs will crash because of running out of RAM.

It sounds like that’s exactly what’s happening with your setup, however you probably don’t need to buy more RAM to fix it.

Type free, or free -h, into a terminal to see how much RAM and swap space is being used.

Yeah. All the FUD about Huawei really solidified in my mind how stupid the average internet user is these days.

It’s like, everything they were bitching about has already been confirmed to be happening with US companies thanks to PRISM and the Snowden leaks.

We need to keep in mind that businesses like Apple are already charging the most they think customers are willing to pay.

Tariffs will hurt their bottom line by causing them to lose more in sales than they can make up for by raising unit prices.

Slavery never went away, they just added extra steps.

You shouldn’t have subscribed in the first place.

Is babbel free software?

Using apple products is a humiliation ritual.

Is it free software?

Good riddance.

These companies need to stop pushing ‘features’ nobody cares about and then complaining they need more funding.
