With the ongoing crisis over the world, the pc components shortage isn’t a big problem. But if we make memes about the war and files, paid PR bots are reporting and commenting shit and the post will be deleted. We people must not see those things as a joke and make memes to farm fake internet points. E files are totally normal now and people are commenting like that as nothing. I humbly request everyone to not make fun of those things and try to understand the situation yourself more than knowing from someone’s perspective.
It’s only some humans, who have made this choice for all the rest of us.
Also “RAMS”?
And every other human let other peoples do their chocises for them.
You don't think PC or AI use one RAM do you?
Are you smoking marijuanas?
One Marijuana = one prison so that would be a lot of nos
A lot of Nitrous Oxide?
I mean it's just weird to use it as a plural unless you're talking about an excellent album
Mass nouns are very hard for nonnative English speakers. The examples that I find really annoying are "softwares" and "codes".
E(mails). Community supports. Livings. Literally.
To say nothing of "the above" or "the below"; but, unlike French, there is no governing body to decide what is "new ad-hoc fun expression that breaks established rules and grammar but is popular on tiktok so we'll keep it" and what is "wrong. You fail."
Sorry. Those of us who learned our 'much' from our 'many' in 3 languages find little excuse for this. :-\
All Latin languages have mass nouns and most others do, too. Who refers to water as a plural? Air? What they lack is pattern recognition. "Everywhere I see this word, it's singular, but I don't notice things no matter how often I see them so I'm putting an s on the end "
The issue here is more likely having no idea what RAM stands for and thus not knowing that it's a mass noun in the first place.
My Malaysian colleagues seem to have a heck of a time with mass nouns. The talk about staffs taking leaves and leaving feedbacks. I would correct them but it feels like a losing battle.
