As others have suggested: this is a test for military technology. When the enemy has jammed your fixed beacons you can't work out your position from them. Probably nobody will do this on a train (and they have other technology anyway), but for an airplane this is a real problem.
I captured max RSS size while running benchmarks as a rough approximation, but it's not exposed anywhere. If you go to the repo, you can run `./bench/compare -f rss_mb -lT bench/amd64/*.json` to see a table in the terminal. No big surprises there, Java engines (Rhino, Nashorn, GraalJS) are most memory-hungry.
Absolutely agree. The idea that private corporation manage our digital payments is crazy if you ever imagine that happening to physical payments. Imagine if bank of america got to decide if the dollar bill your trying to use is too damaged. That should be between me, the recipient, and a public body
That high bar is GNOME having an uppity whenever a Wayland protocol is suggested they don't like, that even if is accepted, if Mutter doesn't implement it then its dead in the water given its the de facto default compositor on unfortunately what people consider "Linux", aka Ubuntu.
e.g. DRM leases that only got changed because Valve has the bigger underwear. Expecting games to implement DBUS (incl. when running under Wine) to access VR headsets just for GNOME is nuts.
The government model needs a change that stakeholders who ship devices to the end users that rely on them have more of a say, whether that's Google, Valve etc. Valve is now backing and pushing KDE into average joe end users is a telling.
