  • 2 years was a long time to wait to use the extra memory that Linux could use out of the box.

    For 8 years, Linux had the same limitations as Windows. Then for 2 years it was ahead. Pae could always be turned back on with a boot switch. Going back 25 years to criticize Windows is kind of weird but you do you.

    (I run Linux on a variety of PCs, SBC’s, and VM’s in my house. I just get annoyed by unjustified Linux fanboyism.)





  • The Manhattan project took 2.5 years. It involved mining 18.8 million pounds of uranium. 10 Cyclotron factories of 20 cyclotrons for 22,000 workers was built in 6 months to separate the uranium.

    It boils down to collecting all the building equipment from around the world and sending it to where you want to build the pyramid.

    50,000 people cutting stone while 50,000 heavy construction equipment operators move the stones would take 2 months.

    So it’s really down to resources. If it was a Manhattan Project level of resources thrown at building a Pyramid, I’d wild guess 3 months.
