No. This makes no sense. Are you seriously saying if you saw an order for 18,000 waters pop up on your monitor you’d just say “that’s fine” then spend the next three days straight filling cups?

If I were the manager of the store, I’d hope my employees would have the bare minimum critical thinking skill to ask someone first.

At the store I worked in, everyone would be given at least 12 hours notice of a catering order. We’d have everything prepped ready to go, and expect the order when it arrives. If one popped up without notice it’s definitely a bug, and we’re definitely not making it.

I get the reference!

Same. People age quite differently. I didn’t start puberty until I was 16. I didn’t get attracted to girls until I was 17. Much later than my friends.

I got a job at a pizza shop when I was 20, and I made friends with the 15+16yo employees there, I got along much better with them than people my own age. I can see how that’s was potentially creepy, looking back on it, but it seemed normal enough at the time, those people were my good friends.

I matured very slowly. I didn’t graduate uni until I was 29. I’m now 39, physically I look like I’m 30, mentally and psychologically I feel like I’m 30.

I noticed the same thing, and you could see it a bit in this (OP) video too.

I think this one is partly regional and partly traditional.

Destin probably always called his father sir, and he probably has the same expectation of his children.

He is also a staunch Republican, and a Trump supporter. I like some of his videos, but most of them are cringe if you’re actually knowledgeable about the topic he is covering. He researches a topic just enough to come across as the smartest person in the room, while dumbing down concepts and talking down to the audience like we’re infants. You can tell his target audience are poorly educated and easily impressed people from rural America.

Kind of. Think of the RAM allowance as a “maximum” limit, not a reserved allocation. The VM host might have 64 GB RAM, and perhaps allows 20 VMS running in it at once. Each VM can allocate up to a max of 8GB from that host. Not everyone is running their VM at the same time, even if they are, not everyone would be running at their limit of 8GB of memory. If it does happen that 20 users are trying to use 8GB at the same time on one host, then it’s the same as anytime an OS runs low on RAM, it would start paging out to disk, everything would slow down for everyone. If that happens too many times, they could shuffle some users’ VMs around to balance the loads across hosts.

Can someone explain to me why it always seems like everyone on lemmy are in one of these two categories:

1: “I remember my first computer used ferro-magnetic beads that we glued to lengths of string. We could store nearly 10 bytes in one string”.

2: “My first computer was an old iPad that only had 64GB storage, couldn’t even store my photo album.”

It’s like everyone is aged either 89 or 19, nobody in between.

Probably because the RAM was pooled, but storage was not. So your RAM allocation is part of a larger pool that is shared between all currently logged in users. But your storage is allocated/reserved up front, and is used only by you.
