She is a hard core pro-cosplayer

What the Sam Hill is that?

-Cosplay?

It's like adult dress-up ;
@Dashrender Might be able to provide a better answer than I can, seeing how he does it:
but basically, You dress up in costumes based on your favorite characters in Comics/Cartoons/Fantasy Movies

Oh. OK. Never heard of that before, I've seen those folks dress up like Vikings and Civil War people and Star Wars, didn't know it had a name.

It's like this massive mainstream "nerd chic" thing, at least here in the states. It's the popular thing to do. Google "cosplay", when not at work. It's the biggest, trendiest thing for the past several years. It's a huge part of what is fueling the Instagram explosion (and vice versa.)

And people dress up as absolutely everything. Niche cartoon characters, inanimate objects, famous people, anything.

This is not a term I accept applied to myself. thanks.

For those that didn't follow, it's "Cosplay" that Dash doesn't apply to himself. Not dressup that he was saying.

Correct

I mean... that by definition is Cosplay...

Yes, but he can still not like the word.

Ubuntu 1904 with dynamic memory between 256 and 1024. I suspect that it’s 2 issues.
1 I think I need to staticky set the amount of RAM
2 a config issue as I haven’t changed a lot from default.

What hypervisor are you using? On Hyper-V, I normally set my startup RAM to 2048MB, minimum RAM 2048 MB and maximum RAM 2048MB. On KVM, current and maximum is set to 2048MB.
