I do sometimes reflect on how 64MB of memory was enough to browse the Web with two or three tabs open, and (if running BeOS) even play MP3s at the same time with no stutters. 128MB felt luxurious at that time, it was like having no (memory-imposed) limits on personal computing tasks at all.

Now you can't even fit a browser doing nothing into that memory...

HN works under Dillo and you don't needs JS at all. If some site needs JS, don't waste your time. Use mpv+yt-dlp where possible.
