totally serious tinfoil territory 

tinfoil theory: they still sell devices with 8G ram so that people will get pissed how slow it is (because it's swapping all the time while the browser allocates another gigabyte) and then buy a new one.

@bonifartius Pretty much all our job laptops/computers have 8GB ram now. Until still fairly recently we had to make do with 2GB. I even had to whine to our IT dept to upgrade my RAM already and they upgraded it to a whopping 4GB :P But all the 2018+ computers now have 8GB, which is fine for normal office work, yay. :P

Of course, I have a special laptop (since I don't do standard office work) and made sure it's got a nice 16GB. ;)

@trinsec i can't even remember the last time i used a computer with 2G ram :)
