Before I try this how do I undo it?

2018-08-21 12:59:09 UTC  

there's a close button in the top right, only click that

2018-08-21 12:59:13 UTC  

^

2018-08-21 12:59:32 UTC  

you don't want to mess with the developer console because you'll get HIV.js

2018-08-21 12:59:41 UTC  

kek

2018-08-21 13:00:24 UTC  

Got it. Just tried it. Looks interesting. No idea what any of it means. Left it the hell alone

2018-08-21 13:00:35 UTC  

I once saw a calculator, a fucking calculator, made in Electron- like, it had even less features than the calculator built into Windows, like why

2018-08-21 13:00:43 UTC  

lmao

2018-08-21 13:00:45 UTC  

amazing

2018-08-21 13:00:49 UTC  

why would anyone want a calculator that uses a literal gigabyte of RAM

2018-08-21 13:00:52 UTC

i can't post images, but if I could, I'd show you a screenshot of my task manager right now where Discord is using literally 1.3 GB of RAM

2018-08-21 13:01:17 UTC  

1.3 GB

2018-08-21 13:01:19 UTC  

for a chat client

2018-08-21 13:01:22 UTC  

like i said ... most people building these apps, have no idea about performance

2018-08-21 13:01:59 UTC  

calling it lightweight was an absolute joke and Discord are a bunch of pseudo-intellectual crooks, this is so sad, alexa can we all use qTox

2018-08-21 13:02:00 UTC  

around 500MB for me

2018-08-21 13:02:28 UTC  

which yeah, is insane

2018-08-21 13:02:33 UTC  

Even 500MB is a lot, considering how old some peoples' machines are.

2018-08-21 13:02:38 UTC  

its a trade off

2018-08-21 13:02:53 UTC  

209.2MB for me

2018-08-21 13:03:05 UTC  

for reference, Teamspeak only uses around 25 MB for me

2018-08-21 13:03:07 UTC  

my machine has 16GB i dont care about RAM, but if it starts hogging CPU

2018-08-21 13:03:35 UTC  

OH YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW BAD DISCORD'S SCREENSHARE IS FOR YOUR CPU

2018-08-21 13:03:42 UTC  

they're doing VIDEO ENCODING and DECODING on the CPU

2018-08-21 13:03:49 UTC  

what the ACTUAL FUCK

2018-08-21 13:03:58 UTC  

like the Slack client used to open a window/thread (cant remember the details) for EVERY org you were in

2018-08-21 13:03:59 UTC  

HAHA 100% CPU USAGE HERE WE COME

2018-08-21 13:04:02 UTC  

Incredible.

2018-08-21 13:04:24 UTC  

i have six cores and I still want to actually kill myself whenever I use screenshare on Discord

2018-08-21 13:04:38 UTC  

yeah my machine is a bit of a potato otherwise, and when i play games and use discord chat, my FPS is shit. if i turn off discord, its all fine

2018-08-21 13:05:07 UTC  

According to my partner who is a games animator Unity up until very recently used the CPU for everything pretty much

2018-08-21 13:05:39 UTC  

Pissed him right the hell off

2018-08-21 13:05:46 UTC  

and as for idle CPU usage by discord, it's using 15% for me and literally nothing else is using that much CPU right now

2018-08-21 13:05:56 UTC  

not even doing anything and it spikes up to 25%

2018-08-21 13:06:09 UTC  

isn't discord cloud based?

2018-08-21 13:06:14 UTC  

about 1% for me

2018-08-21 13:06:17 UTC  

obv

2018-08-21 13:06:35 UTC  

as we've been talking out before, Discord's based on Electron

2018-08-21 13:06:42 UTC  

aka aids.js

2018-08-21 13:06:59 UTC  

whether it's cloud based or not doesn't matter
