A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

more common when dealing with servers. they just have to work harder
It's still not that common to have one die. Servers have ECC memory which can get you by longer even as a DIMM starts to die. It's also rarely run at speeds consumer RAM is run at.
The thing with server memory is when you get to point where you have hundreds of servers and each one has 12 to 24 DIMMs the chance you have a bad one somewhere increases.
Some servers have ECC. If you get a cheap one (like a Hetzner auction server), it's less likely to have ECC. ECC protects against bitflips, but it won't help if the RAM is starting to die. ECC isn't magic - it just has an extra 8 bits of parity data per 64 bits of data. It still uses the same type of RAM chips.
nah for sure, but i'd give a bet ruud was running on consumer hardware which has far less fault tolerance built in
