Why The Fuck Is VS Code Out Of Mana

VS Code crashed with reason 'oom' (out of memory), but someone clearly spent too much time in RPG land and read it as "out of mana."

The error code '-536870904' is just the OS being cryptic about memory violations, but honestly "out of mana" is a better explanation. Maybe if you close some of those extensions you installed and never use, VS Code can cast "IntelliSense" again. Time to download more RAM... or actually close something for once.

Sure, Tony Stark built an Arc Reactor in a cave with scraps, but even he couldn't allocate 280 freaking terabytes of RAM. That's not a Raspberry Pi project—that's a "sell your house for server farm" project.
