How do you fancy knitting your programs into rom?
"LOL memory" a.k.a. "Little Old Lady memory"...
Amazing.

And, of course, some lune has to build his own version in his basement...

This looks as simple as it gets...

4 resistors & 3 transistors for a 3 input NOR...
Not in 1960s RTL they're not...
It's easy to forget how difficult some of this stuff was from the perspective of Gigs of ram & billion transistor chips...
That being said, those ancient RTL chips were a lot more radiation hard than anything since.
