Chrome is still a memory hog on macOS compared to Safari
I have a 2019 iMac with a 3.6GHz i9 CPU, 64gb of RAM, and 8gb of video ram- so quite a powerful system.
I was using Chrome for quite a while, but I noticed I was hearing the iMac's fan a lot. I installed the program MenuBar Stats which gives all sorts of system info- CPU and RAM usage, reading on the almost 30 temperature sensors inside the machine, and of course, fan speed.
Well, the fan would often go to 100%. The CPU temp would soar to 165-170º.
Then I switched to Safari. Not only did everything load faster, but the fan stopped coming on. The programs that were operating at the same time, worked faster. The CPU temp rarely goes about 145º.
Chrome simply sucks. -
Epic Games behind anti-Apple App Store legislation in North Dakota
<<Anderson told The New York Times that, although North Dakota is a conservative state, it's also "where Teddy Roosevelt came from, and there's no bigger trustbuster." She did concede that the bill may not have the votes to pass.>>Someone should inform Mr Anderson that Teddy Roosevelt was born and raised in New York. -
Apple TV+ review: 'The Snoopy Show' brings back the Peanuts of the past
Just watched episode one. Now, I'm just about a month shy of my 59th birthday, so I grew up with The Peanuts. The show is just great. It brings back lots of memories...and all the Peanuts books I had as a kid. (Truth is... I do have the entire 26 volume The Compleat Peanuts with every single strip Charles Schulz ever did rom Fantagraphics publishing.) -
