Ram Shortage...

1 hour ago 161.2K views 0 shares

The great PC gaming love triangle has shifted, and honestly? It's giving character development. Back in 2020, PC gamers were out here side-eyeing their RAM while GPU manufacturers were living their best life, charging kidney prices for graphics cards during the crypto mining apocalypse. Fast forward to 2026, and suddenly RAM is the hot new thing everyone's fighting over while GPUs are collecting dust on shelves. Plot twist nobody saw coming: AI workloads are absolutely DEVOURING RAM like it's an all-you-can-eat buffet. Those fancy LLMs need 192GB just to load their morning coffee preferences. Meanwhile, GPU prices finally chilled out, so now we're all broke from buying RAM sticks instead. The hardware industry really said "you thought you were done spending money?" and switched the bottleneck on us. Truly diabolical.

Discord Having A Very Disappointing Fall-Off Right Now

So Discord has fallen from grace SO HARD that people are actually fleeing back to TeamSpeak like it's some kind of underground bunker from 2009. TeamSpeak! The platform that looks like it was designed in Microsoft Paint and sounds like you're communicating through a tin can telephone! The sheer AUDACITY of Discord to mess up so badly that developers and gamers are literally dusting off their TeamSpeak servers and pretending the last decade didn't happen. It's like watching someone abandon a Tesla to go back to riding a horse-drawn carriage because at least the horse doesn't force you to watch ads or sell your data to crypto bros.

Discord Moment

Remember when Discord was just a simple chat app for gamers? Yeah, those were simpler times. Now it wants your driver's license, your passport, a blood sample, and probably your firstborn child just to verify you're human. Meanwhile, TeamSpeak is still chilling in the corner like that reliable old friend who never changed. No fancy video selfies, no ID scans, no existential privacy crises. Just pure, unfiltered voice communication. Sure, the UI looks like it was designed in 2003 (because it basically was), but at least it's not asking for your government-issued identification to let you yell at your squad mates. The evolution from "pretty good chat app" to "please submit your biometric data" is peak modern software development. Feature creep meets surveillance capitalism, wrapped in a sleek dark mode interface.

Oh honey, the AUDACITY of people who think they can just recreate Spotify in 7 minutes because "coding is easy" and then have the NERVE to question why anyone would waste years getting a Computer Science degree. Like, sweetie, one SQL injection later and your entire "Spotify clone" is serving malware with a side of exposed user passwords. The creator's response? Just a casual "Wdym" (what do you mean) - the most devastating two-word murder in programming history. Because nothing says "I have no idea what I'm doing" quite like thinking you can speedrun a multi-billion dollar streaming platform while completely ignoring little things like... oh I don't know... SECURITY? The delusion is ASTRONOMICAL.

Agentic Money Burning

The AI hype train has reached peak recursion. Agentic AI is the latest buzzword where AI agents autonomously call other AI agents to complete tasks. Sounds cool until you realize each agent call burns through API tokens like a teenager with their parent's credit card. So now you've got agents spawning agents, each one making LLM calls, and your AWS bill is growing exponentially faster than your actual productivity gains. The Xzibit "Yo Dawg" meme format is chef's kiss here because it captures the absurdity of meta-recursion—you're literally paying for AI to coordinate with more AI, doubling (or tripling, or 10x-ing) your token consumption. Meanwhile, your finance team is having a meltdown trying to explain why the cloud costs went from $500 to $50,000 in a month. But hey, at least it's agentic , right?

This Is A Joke About Holy C

Programming C++

The evolution of main function signatures, from basic to absolutely transcendent. Starting with the peasant-tier function main() , ascending through int main() (slightly more enlightened), reaching void main() (controversial but galaxy-brained), and finally achieving divine consciousness with U0 main() . For the uninitiated: U0 is HolyC's void type, the programming language created by the late Terry Davis for TempleOS—an entire operating system built by one man who claimed to be building God's temple. U0 represents the ultimate return type: nothing, because when you're programming for divine purposes, what even is a return value? You don't return to the OS, you return to the heavens. The ascension makes perfect sense: regular developers use functions, smart developers return integers, galaxy brains use void, but only the truly enlightened use U0 and compile their code in 640x480 16-color glory while talking directly to God through random number generators.

Finally decided to go full minimalist and build a PC without any RGB nonsense? Welcome to inner peace. No more dealing with iCUE eating 2GB of RAM just to make your keyboard rainbow puke. No more software conflicts between five different RGB ecosystems that refuse to sync. No more wondering why your PC takes an extra 30 seconds to boot because Corsair's bloatware is having an existential crisis. Just pure, clean, black components doing their job without demanding you sacrifice system resources to the RGB gods. Your CPU usage dropped by 5% and your sanity increased by 500%. Who knew that NOT having rainbow vomit everywhere would feel this liberating? Thanos here perfectly captures that moment of zen when you realize your PC is now just... a computer. Not a disco ball. Not a Christmas tree. Just a machine that compiles code without trying to sync with seventeen different RGB profiles.

C Cpp Programming In 2050

C++ Programming

The C++ standards committee is literally speedrunning version numbers like it's a competitive sport. We've got C++26, C++29, C++32, C++33, and then there's ISO C just chilling in the graveyard like the ancient relic it is. While C++ is out here releasing a new standard every time you blink, poor old C is still stuck with C11 and C17, basically fossilizing in real-time. By 2050, C++ will probably be at version C++127 with built-in time travel features, while C developers will still be manually managing memory like it's 1972. The generational gap between these two is absolutely SENDING me—one's evolving faster than a Pokémon on steroids, the other's preserved like a prehistoric mosquito in amber.

Just One More Nuclear Power Plant And We Have AGI

AI companies pitching their next model like "just give us another 500 megawatts and we'll totally achieve AGI this time, we promise." The exponential scaling of AI training infrastructure has gotten so ridiculous that tech giants are literally partnering with nuclear power plants to feed their GPU farms. Microsoft's Three Mile Island deal, anyone? The tweet format is chef's kiss—the baby doubling in size with exponential growth that makes zero biological sense perfectly mirrors how AI companies keep scaling compute and expecting intelligence to magically emerge. "Just 10x the parameters again, bro. Trust me, bro. AGI is right around the corner." Meanwhile, the energy consumption is growing faster than the actual capabilities. Fun fact: Training GPT-3 consumed about 1,287 MWh of electricity—enough to power an average American home for 120 years. And that was the small one compared to what they're cooking up now.

There Are Wrong Choices

Someone tries to be diplomatic with the whole "all languages are valid" speech, and programmers collectively decide that's heresy worthy of immediate execution. The beautiful irony here is that while the dev community loves to preach inclusivity and "use the right tool for the job," the moment someone mentions their stack, the pitchforks come out. PHP devs get roasted. JavaScript gets mocked for its type coercion. Python gets called slow. C++ devs are accused of loving segfaults. Nobody is safe. The truth? We're all just one bad take away from being crucified in the tech Twitter wasteland. Choose your language wisely, because the internet never forgets—and neither do your code reviewers.

Deduping For Faster Justice

Someone finally decided to apply software engineering best practices to a criminal investigation. Converting a list to a set for O(1) lookup time? Chef's kiss. Nothing says "we're serious about justice" quite like eliminating duplicate entries with a simple data structure swap. I can just imagine the meeting: "Detective, we need to search through thousands of names!" "Have you tried... deduplication?" "Brilliant! Promote this person immediately!" The real question is whether they're using a HashSet or a TreeSet. Performance matters when you're fighting crime, people. Also, did nobody think to normalize the data before storing it? Guess they didn't have a DBA on the investigative team.

When your network engineer friend says they can "totally do UI design," you get a building that looks like someone took the OSI model way too literally. Those windows are arranged with the precision of a perfectly routed network topology—functional, efficient, and absolutely soul-crushing to look at. The architect clearly optimized for maximum throughput and minimal latency between floors, but forgot that humans have eyes. It's giving "I organized my CSS with the same energy I use for subnet masks." Every window is perfectly aligned in a grid pattern that screams "I understand packets better than pixels." Somewhere, a frontend developer is crying into their Figma workspace while a network engineer proudly explains how this design achieves 99.99% uptime for natural light distribution.
