That's odd. I believe 7 ultimate has a ridiculous upper limit on RAM, like around 200Gb or some such.

Perhaps a conflict with the existing RAM?

Windows and CPU-Z both register it as being there, just Windows not wanting to use it. I'll attempt to reinstall it just in case I am dumb.

Edit: Was very slightly off. Working like a charm now.

My sad for today is that I've just spent a few hours watching street food videos from Vietnam, which somehow ended up leading to restaurant food at a Sichuan place in Hong Kong.

...I'm in Norway. We don't have street food. Our Chinese restaurants are places where you can order a plate of foil-baked salmon with boiled potatoes. For the low price of almost a day's wages.

You can't see it, but my stomach is crying.

Put some sour cream on the potato for dairy, and yeah.

Exactly. It's archetypical Norwegian fare, put on the menu solely so that the locals won't panic when seeing all this "foreign food" listed there.

Every Chinese restaurant I've seen so far has been anything but... they're Norwegian restaurants with soy sauce (Kikkoman... Always, always Kikkoman). Good luck even finding a dish that actually includes tofu.

I've been fasting for about 28 hours now, and I guess I feel pretty hungry, but anything I can think of to eat feels like a waste of a perfectly good fast.

Hm. Is steak an option? That and salmon are my usual go-to 'celebration' food options.

I bake salmon covered in panko breadcrumbs that have been covered in olive oil so they are slightly moisturized and also i mix minced garlic in with the breadcrumbs.

That's my big fancy happy food.

I know a guy who came back from an enforced hunger exercise in the military. For his first meal back at base, he went for a slice of bread with cheese on it.

Made it about halfway through the slice before his stomach balked at having food in it again and he had to run out of the mess to puke.


Alternatively, haleem is a traditional end-of-fast dish. I mean, sure, it takes 7-8 hours of cooking with intermittent stirring, but that just adds to your fasting high score!

Do you get 3 characters to sign your name with if you get a high score in fasting?

Dunno if this is grounded in reality, but I wouldn't want a steak after a fast.
Prolly fish.  Much easier to digest, I can barely handle small amounts of steak.  My stomach doesn't like beef.
Fish and a small amount of sweets, simple carbs.
Work up from there.

My diabetic family has me intensely aware about calorie intake.  How the simplest carbs can be absorbed through the tongue, in an emergency, and others can maybe be too much if you eat too many and let them digest.  And then they get grumpy

How am I not diabetic.  Why was I chosen.
(mildly sad)

(maybe I have the dominant genes)

Nothing's better after a fast than a slow!

I seem to have this amazing ability to listen intently to what people are saying to me, and then have absolutely no idea whqt they actually said, like theyre speaking another language. Like im completely deaf for the five seconds it takes for them to finish their sentence.

Especially over the phone. I have to ask customers to repeat themselves multiple times. Everybody hates talking to me.
