Gonna need a great big citation on that, superchief. I recently had to upgrade a friends' kiddos' PC because Discord simply could not function with a MERE 8GB of RAM.

I have an old laptop with 8GB of RAM and an ancient CPU that I haul around with I when something small for basic work. I can run Discord, Visual Studio Code, and Chrome just fine.

Something else was going on with that PC.

Or the kid did an excellent job of socially engineering his parents into an upgrade.
