That is not what I am seeing on my system... Either way, for an application that should do almost nothing, it is an insane amount of wasted resources.

I find it astonishing that the JetBrains Toolbox, a toolbar menu app that does mostly nothing, is the #2 app in terms of memory usage on my macOS, using a staggering 439MB. I am sure it is due to its usage of Compose / Kotlin, but still...

@proton.me Although the latest Android Proton Mail app is a big step forward, it is VERY annoying to have to scroll through a list of deleted messages in a long thread of deleted messages just to see the new one I just received. It doesn't do that on the web. Please fix!

Expedition 33 is such a good game, I wished I could wipe my memory clean so that I could play it again not knowing what to expect and experience it all over again.

Jamba

Today Steinberg released the latest VST3 SDK (3.7.14). There are hardly any changes (few bug fixes). I updated Jamba to use it.

I am sorry but I cannot play "Star Wars Outlaws" on my #PS5Pro with the recommended Quality/60fps/PSSR settings. It just looks too soft and the constant shimmering is unbearable. Instead I use Quality/30fps/FSR3 which looks so much better. Another letdown for the #PS5Pro ...

After more than 135h of playtime, seeing all 5 different major endings, I still have a hard time putting down Cyberpunk 2077. It is now definitely in my top 5 games of all time, if not my top 3.

Played on PS5Pro in quality mode (30fps).

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.

It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

I played the previous version of Monster Hunter and, although I know that a lot of people like this kind of game, I really didn't like it. I found the main gameplay very repetitive.
