It’s probably some crazy ancient manufacturing equipment. This is basically what factories look like. Spit, glue, tape, and hacks.

This was from the CNC subreddit

https://old.reddit.com/r/CNC/comments/1awg376/whats_the_code_to_buy_more_ram/

Maybe that thread has specifics.

Looks like an industrial control system. Back when extra RAM was a premium not only hardware wise but also software licensing.

Enterprise equipment still has this stuff all the time.

Want to double the speed? The hardware can do it, but software says no.

RAM as a subscription service. When enough slaves people keep buying enough overpriced shit, we’ll get there in no time. Let’s buy another apple product, another Microsoft OS, another car with subscription functions, watch the 100th hero movie, pay every month for dozens of “services” and keep on consuming blindly. Just don’t. And learn instead how to use stuff properly. It’s not hard, it’s even fun when you start to own more. Start with rooting your phone for example.
