i'm gonna make an os where every single program can only use 128mb ram

no more no less

design around _that_, google

@squirrel we had them: that's what smartphones used to be.

they sucked

@nick i don't think you're old enough to have had a smartphone with less than 512mb ram kid

go back to your xcode ide

@squirrel there was a pretty narrow window when true smartphones had 256MB of RAM or less, but I owned a Palm Pre & iPhone 3GS (256 MB RAM each). They sucked.

I don't know why you assume I use Xcode. Do you "know my type" who "doesn't know real programming" and expects that I'm reliant on Interface Builder or something? Please tell me more about pointers and bitwise operations so I can learn the magic of C89.

@nick can you understand that windows 98 ran on less than 128mb of ram

@squirrel yeah, and it's altogether a worse user experience than something more modern. can you understand that 20 years of hardware advancements have enabled better computing experiences for people around the world?

@nick i know people who can't afford a computer with more than 2gb ram

now get off my mentions

@squirrel if you asked, I'm sure they would rather run programs permitted to use more than 128 MB of ram.

Good day.
