There's a machine at work with 96 GB of RAM, but it was built for a specific purpose that needed that much.

Unless you are doing image editing, there is no human justification for 16 GB for a normal home user. Nothing you are doing will benefit from that much RAM.

>>8336327
>RAM disks and caching

Caching doesn't stop the hit from the first time you read the data. For movies and similar things, this doesn't help at all, and those are the only things (that a home user will deal with) so large that you couldn't keep them entirely cached in RAM with much less than that.

As for RAM disks -- okay, that's an actual reason. (I assume you have some application that would benefit from it, which most people don't. Perhaps you're running a web-facing database of some kind.) That, and if you want to run a bunch of virtual machines.

Tell that to the extremely expensive alienware builds.
That dell is on special, and the parts just so happened to match up this time.

Plus, it looks like you actually can tell them what to put in the dell. When you can do that, yeah, it's generally not much more expensive, because you really just pay a bit for labor, they don't really mark up anything. But if you buy a PC with pre-defined parts, they'll mark everything way the fuck up and choose a price that looks neat and tidy to a normal. like $999.

Why pay for labor though if you can do it yourself? And everyone here should be capable of that.

Because presumably you only have that money from doing something yourself.

If you earn more on average from whatever it is you do so that you don't actually save any money from building a PC because the time you spent doing it would have been better compensated by your job, then go ahead and pay for it. But considering they charge $50 for labor when it takes 30 minutes, this shouldn't be the case for most.

Not all food is created equal.

The cheapest you can get food will be from just eating grains, basically pure energy, with little to not protein and no essential fatty acids/micronutrients. If you take a multivitamin you can take care of two of those, but you will still be pretty shit protein-wise. Unfortunately, protein is the most expensive macronutrient, you need to fork it out get it, even if it's just canned tuna.

That's 3 dollars a day.

Forgot to mention, if you don't get enough protein you're going to die eventually as your muscles and organs are catabolized for essential amino acids, so unless you account for protein you can't call the cheapest you could eat on temporarily a permanent solution.

Like I said, that's why I asked. Beans and rice are cheap, but that doesn't mean you're spending $21 bucks a week on only beans and rice... Are you?

If you check store ads they have very good deals for both vegetables and meats. Personally, I buy my meats and produce from the Mexican market because they're both incredibly cheap there. All you need to do is prepare what's on sale into a meal. No need to barely get by from eating grains, multivitamins, and canned tuna.

Dude here, it takes about 10 minutes to chop it up stick in in the freezer, 2 minutes to put it in freezer bags, 10 minutes to peel vegetables. The parts that I use for soup I stick in a pot with carrots and other vegetables, salts etc... that cooks for about 3~4 hours, less if you use express pots but I like it slow it has better taste, while this is happening you have free time go play battlefield or something.

After that when the soup is finished you have cooked chiken meat to eat, plus vegetables, you can eat if with some sauce. You take the soup and pour it into a separate pot and filter it. That takes about 5~10 minutes.

Later to make egg+corn meal pastry it thats like 5 minutes, the dough that you grind thats like more thats like 10~15 minutes + it has to dry.

So all in all you prepared soup for a whole week ( like 5 liters) in about 30 minutes of work + 4 hours of cooking. You made the pastry for the said soup in less then 10 minutes.

BIG FUCKING WASTE OF TIME, and all this while watching TV in your kitchen. Hell you can even watch wahtever if you have a laptop.

Hey assranger, why don't you lick my butthole? Just because you're too poor to buy food like everyone else who doesn't live in Africa, doesn't mean we're all outrageously poor here.

Just what do you guys spend your autism bucks on anyway? Figures? Faggots. Anyone who buys plastic renditions of anime characters for hundreds of dollars probably shouldn't be talking about how anyone else spends their money.

Oh yeah, but a lot of those can be unnecessarily large too. You don't have to load *all 16 gigs* into RAM at once.

I do use guitar samples, some synth samples and quite a few VSTs though. But the point is the majority of music producers won't need crazy amounts of ram, only if you're trying to get as close to really big complex orchestral stuff with as possible without having a big complex orchestra.

Ableton Live *still* doesn't have 64 bit support so it doesn't use more than 4GB either.

>orchestral stuff
Those guys. I can remember an orchestral library being fucking 160GB.

Food and Internet. What else would I need? Do you think I want to work or something?

So you're just mad at people spending their money on things beyond food and internet, because you're not able to yourself.

Or maybe it's a philosophy that that's all you really need, and if you're working hours to provide you with money that pays for more than just that, you're wasting your time. But just because they have money to blow, doesn't mean they worked for it.

He lives off of autism bucks, he doesn't work.

I think people on welfare should have to sign a contract. This contract states, that as long as they live on welfare, they have to forfeit any ownership of their organs, and hospitals may make a claim for any given non-essential organ or portion of an organ (An eye, a kidney, parts of the liver, skin grafts, etc) to give to one that is not living on welfare.

You're retarded. Because I like to save money doesn't mean I don't have it.

You're saying that on /jp/, of all places? People only earn their money because they're forced to. Sure you could punish the people who are perceived drains on society, but what about the lucky people who have wealth beyond any possible living means, and didn't really work very hard to get it? They're part of the problem too.

That wasn't my reasoning.

You asked why you would buy anything other than food and internet, I reasoned that therefore you have no use for money that exceeds what you pay for those two things. Why would you save money you never intend to spend?

That money will get spent sooner or later. As for me, to be able to live without working later of course; retirement money is shit. Or other wiser people may want to invest in something. Why would you make money just to spend it immediately in something so short term? If you work, make money for your life, not only for today.

But this discussion is shit anyway, we will never know who was right at the end.

People say that you need a lot of memory when working with Photoshop. I have 4GB of DDR3 and make stupid images with billions of layers all the time, yet I never run out of memory.

At times like these I feel like buying more RAM just because the cool kids are doing it.

Are you really taking that post seriously?

Though, you faggots that get money for having social anxiety or whatever really are worthless, and should be used for something. There's a big difference between having a terminal, debilitating illness that requires state-aid, and being a whiny pussy who is afraid to go outside.

If you don't plan to live without working then get out of /jp/.

How the fuck did you get to that conclusion, of course not.

>>8337072
Yeah same as music. I admit that when computers had 256MB of RAM you couldn't add more than 10 VSTs in the DAW without it crashing, but now that I have 4GB I could add 50 VSTs and it will work, and I never need that much even.
