If the RAM can be added (isn't soldered in), then RAM is relatively cheap. My view is always get as much as you can.
Go take it out on somebody who deserves it. Maybe one of them damned roosters.
I need to check out more details.
Some RAM will come with it, but many (not all) can be upgraded. My current PC came with 16GB, and I immediately upgraded to 32GB (I run virtual machines, so more is better). My point for you was that one that comes with 8GB isnt' a problem, if it's upgradeable to at least 16GB, as that's a relatively inexpensive upgrade if you decide you want it later.
Sorry to hear Buka, hope you feel better soon. But wow, me too today! My litany of injuries and strains are bad today, and funnily enough AH that is exactly what I was planning on for today, epsom salt bath and a tea! We must all be in sync.
As I remember it, the PR-24 was great for a blocking tool but not much else. It was most often used as a conventional stick for strikes. We did learn some strikes using the handle but they never felt right or powerful to me.
Is RAM still the cheapest upgrade you can do to a PC? The more the better.
on a PC, I'm sure.
I'm far from expert with a tonfa (essentially the same weapon), but I think there's more force generated with a proper swing using the side handle (it adds a pivot to the swing, for more speed). It's probably as good as a regular baton for striking if you use it as such, but a 2-handed swing actually reduces the speed - it's neither heavy enough nor long enough to benefit from the second hand.
Except where they are soldered, it's not that big a deal. Dell, for instance, still considers RAM a user-upgradable part. It's usually a thousand or so tiny screws to remove the back (though I had one Dell that actually had little slide locks - I miss that computer), then just pop them out and pop the new ones in. Anyone who is comfortable tinkering with computer hardware would get it done in 5 minutes. (NOTE: I don't recommend it for anyone who isn't comfortable tinkering with computer hardware - the tiny parts make it seem complicated, and those screws are easy to lose.)
I thought at one point you were going back to school, man. Stinks you're in a job you don't enjoy. There are many 2210 series jobs open in the federal government. Not sure what you might qualify for, but might be worth looking on usajobs. 0105 series also has some IT specialists from time to time.
I have my POUND class on Mondays - so that's kind of a bath day for me by default. After I come crawling out of class, drumsticks in my teeth, my tongue flung over my shoulder, a regular shower is just not a safe proposition because it requires standing.Sorry to hear Buka, hope you feel better soon.

I actually have designated every Monday as International Rest/Bath Day for me, has become a nice little self-care relaxed day
I think those are symptoms of a severe mud deficiency.
Hahaha XDI have my POUND class on Mondays - so that's kind of a bath day for me by default. After I come crawling out of class, drumsticks in my teeth, my tongue flung over my shoulder, a regular shower is just not a safe proposition because it requires standing.
That is really, really fascinating to me. I only was introduced to ki when I trialled an aiki karate style last year, and it blew my mind, as I came from years of doing a very hard external style to this. For sure I think it's such a worthy thing to keep within a curriculum, but of course like you said without getting too woowoo and getting ungrounded. A balance is always good. But I reckon it would have a boatload of applications outside of class for sure.
