So we've reached the dystopian future where owning your own hardware is a crime and the AI overlords enforce subscription models for everything. The meme hits different because it's basically where we're already headed—every game company salivating over "games as a service" while you're just trying to play something offline without internet connectivity checks every 5 minutes.

The "You're sheltering Nvidia Gforce RTX 5090 32GB aren't you?" line is *chef's kiss* because in this hellscape, having actual gaming hardware becomes an act of rebellion. Like hiding Anne Frank but it's your GPU. They've turned PC gaming into a thought crime where local storage and offline play are contraband.

Remember when you could just... buy a game and own it? Yeah, your kids won't. They'll be paying $29.99/month for the privilege of streaming games at 720p with 200ms latency while corporations monitor their every keystroke. Fun times ahead.
