i have been using some variant of *nix as my daily os since 1998 or something and, still, every time i run 'tar czf' i yell 'compress zee file!' in a harsh german accent in my head.
@ghorwood Now when I enable zram, I'll be throwing up horns!!
@numodular does not zram come enabled on modern distros out of the box? ugh. now i have to go check.
@ghorwood Lol, some do. But I just installed MX Linux on a machine and it gave a choice for zram and swap.
@numodular 'zram or swap' as in a file on disk, or 'zram or zswap'?
@ghorwood I believe the former, although I may have missed the z in zswap.
