Someone really said "I need more RAM" and went straight to the 1960s computer museum clearance sale. Look at that glorious stack of punch cards sitting there like ancient scrolls of forgotten code! Each hole punched with the precision of a medieval scribe, storing maybe what, 80 bytes per card? You'd need roughly 137 BILLION of these bad boys to match a single 8GB RAM stick. But hey, at least when your program crashes, you can literally see which card caused the segfault and just... throw it in the trash. No memory leaks here—just physical holes leaking air! The ultimate in debugging: if it doesn't work, just punch different holes.
