    branfrd got a reaction from 1988fido in Floatplane App   
    So I've decided to create an app for us Floatplane Club members. It definitely needs a lot of work, but it's a start. Any feedback is much appreciated.
     
    Download Link: floatplane-0.0.1.apk
     
    Reuploaded, because APK was signed only with V2 signature which is only supported in android 7.0.0 and newer.
     
    Download Link: {REMOVED}

    I've been meaning to post about this earlier, and I didn't see where anyone else had posted about this. Having sold a ton of computers, I can tell you that customers were very confused when I told them that the computers didn't actually have 24 GB's of RAM.

    This is sickeningly misleading and the vast, VAST majority of people will fall for it. Hell, the majority of people don't even really understand the difference between RAM and storage, which I think too many of us more "techy" people forget. Most people are completely ignorant to how computers work, even on a basic level, so they compare numbers they don't understand. They'll read "24GB" and compare that to another all around better system but that system will only say "16GB", so they'll fall for the trap.
     
    This is full of shit, and I'll be adding it to the long list of reasons why I hate Dell and HP. But it's not like it's surprising.
