Wrong frameworks?
The story is very short. Some modern apps are just a resource vampires. Like for example Slack (which I don't regularly use) or Telegram (which I do). Let's see idle use:
- Telegram consumes 1% CPU time (14 minutes in total for 3 days) and 68Mb RAM
- WinWord with 2 docs opened consumes 0% CPU (0 (zero) minutes 34 seconds in total for 3 days) and 43Mb RAM
- Telegram consumes 1% CPU time (14 minutes in total for 3 days) and 68Mb RAM
- WinWord with 2 docs opened consumes 0% CPU (0 (zero) minutes 34 seconds in total for 3 days) and 43Mb RAM
What. the. hell.?
P.S. Just compare it to now RIP Google Talk app which consumed 1-3 Mb RAM (and had voice calls!).

Intel cpu temperature indicator fun
Since I started to use core2duo I always thought that my cpu temperature is around 60-70 C (which is very high for idle of all is ok with cooling system). Yesterday I converted audio (flac to aac in virtualbox's ubuntu using soundconverter and a plenty of other packages that were needed to be installed in process after decrypting lots of error messages. Don't even like to write about details. No adequate manuals or instructions, shit. Seems that lawers of RIAA tries hard to make linux community to exclude sound encoders from distribs and even partially from main repos. And seems they have luck yet.) I saw "temperature" indicator drop down to 54C.
This is a classical example of UI "mode" in terms of Raskin: I have 4 indicators on IDU panel: cpu thermal margin, ICH temp, motherboard temp, MCH temp. BUT: only last 3 are actually temp in C above 0. The first one is temp BELOW CPUs' critical temp.
