    Sounds like the way around this is to make swap space take up the drive up to 24 GB. Then trim the swap space as you need it.

    I know it says “to enable” but let’s be real here. It’s going to be a placebo switch.

          Europe keeps on proving that we can in fact regulate these companies, and it’s fucking pathetic how the US and Canada don’t.

        If it’s anything like the “sign into your Microsoft account to continue” bullshit, there will be no cancel button. You’ll need to cast an archaic spell where you summon a spirit from the Netherworld, who then just gives you a 60 minute lecture on enshitification and why you should install Arch.

      I’m pretty sure Windows doesn’t have fixed-size swap. It uses pagefiles.

      Edit: apparently pagefiles can be given a static size as well.
