    It’s not an expectation, it’s a reference.

    A 30 year-old reference used to rationalize a logically fallacious argument.

    And whatever your opinion may be of my weather app, a video editor from 30 years ago is no longer “professional grade”. Oh, and 30 years ago, avid was the professional editing. Suite of choice, followed closely by da Vinci resolve and Final Cut. No professionals used premier. I know, because 30 years ago, I was editing video professionally.

    You clearly have some axe to grind, otherwise you wouldn’t be here on a post about a Windows Weather app that uses five times as much RAM as a macOS weather app and still be whining about the macOS weather app, constantly shifting the goalposts 30 years into the past in order to do so, and having to make up stories about how “young” I must be just to rationalize your shitty attitude.

    Take it from someone in their late 40s: grow up.

      Why so emotional? We are talking about the memory usage of a weather app.

      My point is that 250 MB is a terrible amount of memory for such an application, and that such software isn’t updated for memory regardless of the platform. Yes, the Windows one is the most terrible of all.

      The fact that you are a video editor is not relevant, nor is the fact that you are older, but it is interesting to read about your past nonetheless.

      Just to fact check you: Davinci Resolve didn’t exist yet at the time of Premiere 6, and both Final Cut 3 and Avid required 256 MB of memory, roughly the same as the weather app now.

        lol, you’re the one throwing a tantrum over a weather app, using logical fallacies and insults to do so. what a joke.

        go touch some grass kid. you’re blocked.

          Well, I apologize if saying that the remark about you being inexperienced triggered you. Though I must say your first reaction, literally laughing out loud at my contribution is also not the pinnacle of empathy.

          This topic is about memory usage so let’s stick to that. And blocking is up to you, as it affects your experience and not mine.
