I've been lazy to update about Mei-chan, but since I'm logged in, I might as well update.
Firefox continually crashed to the point where I decided to do a clean install of openSUSE 13.2 to see if it was some sort of weird segmentation fault, but after a couple days, Firefox crashed again.
I figured it had to be the faulty address(es) in the RAM, and looked for some possible meanings of inconsistent memtest results, but didn't really find anything conclusive that I could apply. What I decided to do, however, was to poke around with the RAM settings in BIOS - compromising with turning off the "RAM compatibility" setting and manually setting the RAM speed to DDR2 400.
So far, Firefox has been stable, but if it happens again, I have a plan to take half the RAM out from Mei-chan and give it to Lie-chan - giving Lie-chan's RAM to the Dell and hoping the Dell can use it. Hopefully I won't have to go through that headache.
