Someone took RAM sticks, heat pipes, and what appears to be a power button to craft the most terrifying weapon known to IT: a literal memory upgrade sword. Because when Chrome tabs get out of hand, sometimes you need to take matters into your own hands. The question "Does anyone want RAM installed in them?" hits different when you're holding a blade made of DDR4. It's the ultimate solution for when someone says "just download more RAM" – no, Karen, I'll STAB you with more RAM instead. Props to whoever built this absolute unit of hardware repurposing. Your computer might be dead, but at least it died with honor as a legendary weapon. Plus, that power button on the hilt is *chef's kiss* – because every good stabbing needs a proper boot sequence.

Remember when lumber prices went absolutely insane during the pandemic and plywood became more valuable than gold? Now in 2026, RAM prices have apparently decided to cosplay as housing market circa 2008. The joke here is the absurd inflation trajectory—what was once a pandemic-era construction material shortage has evolved into RAM sticks becoming the new currency. Eight sticks of 16GB Kingston RAM for a Corvette? That's 128GB total, which at today's inflated prices might actually be a reasonable trade. The "No low-ballers. I know what I have" is the chef's kiss—the universal Craigslist battle cry of someone who's absolutely delusional about their item's value but also... might be right this time? In a world where your gaming rig costs more than your car, trading RAM for vehicles is just sound financial planning.

Ken Olsen, CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation, confidently declared in 1977 that nobody would ever need a computer at home. Fast forward a few decades and we're literally panicking when our phone battery drops below 20%. We've got computers in our pockets, on our wrists, in our fridges, and probably embedded in our toasters at this point. The irony here is chef's kiss level. The guy was literally selling computers while simultaneously predicting they'd never be a household item. It's like a car salesman saying "nobody will ever need personal transportation." Digital Equipment Corporation eventually went bankrupt in 1998, probably around the time people were installing Windows 98 on their home PCs and playing Solitaire instead of working. Fun fact: Today we have more computing power in our smartphones than NASA used to land on the moon. So yeah, Ken... we found a few reasons to have computers at home. Like doomscrolling Twitter at 2 AM and arguing with strangers on Reddit about whether tabs or spaces are superior.
