"when I was a youngin' I upgraded the family PC from 4MB to 8MB of RAM, and replaced the Intel 486 sx25 CPU with a Cyrix DX2/66; and it made my eyes bleed less than looking at the price of DDR5 RAM".

Thankfully all the hardware that runs this shitshow was spec'd out long before the RAMpocalypse. Some of it is even DDR5; the main DB server I could probably sell half the memory for more than I paid for the whole system.

Fucking AI jerks.

Oh I thought that was in reference to RAM Trucks.
Either way, the chicks dig it, in my experience anyway.

It's where you use a DDR5 RAM stick to cut up your coke to show how loaded you are.
