  • Before you upgrade, see how much you’re utilizing swap space.

    Type free into a terminal to see this.

    If you don’t see swap space, or if it looks under-utilized, you can increase the capacity and how much it’s used.

    See how much it’s used with cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness. 60 is the default, anything less than that means swap space isn’t being used as often, anything greater means it’s being used more often.

    I recommend just asking AI on how to increase swap space if what you see is not enough.















  • Pretty sure your concept is flawed from the start.

    It might sound nice as a ‘what-if’ scenario, but as soon as you get into any of the details, it falls apart and hopefully shows us why games and stories are typically focused on the people doing something.

    Now, if you want something a bit more likely to succeed, you can make a “Damsel in Distress Simulator.” From the get-go, you can start to think of gameplay mechanics like combing your hair, talking with guards, taking care of birds, etc etc. The ideas just flow, instead of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.

    In fact, this could loop around to your idea of helping the rescuers by opening up opportunities for the princess to sabotage her captors. You can have a Majora’s Mask-like timer which keeps track of how far the knight is from saving you.
