My desktop machine has 32G of RAM

My desktop machine has 32G of RAM. I use it mostly for SSHing into remote servers and using Slack. It's kinda tight on memory.

It's astounding how much RAM a glorified IRC client takes up...

I thought for quite a while that my primary work system was getting to be a little bit underpowered and needed replacing soon. Then I quit a job that required me to be logged into Slack all day. Turns out everything is fine.
