I'm sorry but the whole point of **pipes** is split the task into separate (concurrent) CPU process
Example
cd ~/logs; tail -f *.log|grep -n 'error'|awk '{print $1}' &
[1] 1501967
]$ ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
1501965 pts/0 00:00:00 tail
1501966 pts/0 00:00:00 grep
1501967 pts/0 00:00:00 awk
1501975 pts/0 00:00:00 ps
2144057 pts/0 00:00:00 bash
As leant in 1980s
6 clusters...
"NHS London provided strategic leadership for all of the NHS health services in the capital. NHS London overall responsibility for the performance of 31 Primary care trusts, in 6 clusters, 20 acute trusts, three mental health trusts and the London Ambulance Service. A further 16 trusts in London are self-governing as foundation trusts."
And yet ChatGPT totally failed with the most obvious of junior-school question "which is heavier a pound of feathers of a pound of gold".
It seemed to not care gold is measured in Troy weight. It at the very least needs a things-Giles-Brandreth-knows module, or perhaps The Chip Book Of Fascinating Facts from 1980.
I see with my 13 extensions, this is a much better way to operate.
The alternative that the ones you don't use appear in the three dots menu, which is OK until you have quite a few in there and it doesn't really feel like good UI.
Also, really like to know that I can see which ones (here it's Adblocker Ultimate, Google Dictionary, Google Translate, JSON Viewer) are active on the page I'm looking at.
Google does seem to blow hot and cold over "pins" in the UI, so interesting to see them in the Chrome UI.
- free MS RDC on Google play is really great on everything including Chromebook devices.
- free MS RDC in Apple store works really well.
The free Windows version - - does everything really well (as you might expect after 17 years of upgrade) including cut/paste of files to the desktop.
The problem was that Novell Netware ran like a demon and Microsoft replacment didn't. You couldn't set up a Netware server unless there was enough RAM to cache the bitmap of the allocation map for the drive.
Also, Netware didn't waste CPU cycles on a graphical interface, so the time to transfer data from the disk to the network card was always as fast as it could be.
Any objectve comparison between a Netware network and a Microsoft one (using a Network Analyser) would always show that the MS one was ... poor.
But poor old Novell didn't really get that Microsoft were activily working to kill them off.
