Gonna Run It In My Github Actions Later

The GPU race is getting absurd! AMD's brilliant plan: release a GPU named "PTX" (NVIDIA's proprietary instruction set) with path-tracing support... in 2027... when NVIDIA is already dominating with their 5000 series. Meanwhile, NVIDIA is just sitting there watching AMD copy their homework but somehow still getting an F. It's like promising flying cars when everyone else already has teleportation.

Someone just discovered that variable names don't have to be boring and decided to turn their entire game script into a fitness instruction manual. Shift = sprint? Sure. But then things escalate REAL quick with "left click = punch" and suddenly we're in a full-blown action game where the code reads like a gym bro's workout routine. The facepalm emoji at line 11 is doing HEAVY lifting here because right after confidently declaring "scripting kinda easy," they hit us with the most optimistic variable assignments known to humankind: graphics = very good , music = good , and my personal favorite, fps = 120 with no lag . Because apparently you can just DECLARE your game runs perfectly and the computer will obey? That's not how any of this works, bestie. You can't just manifest good performance through variable assignment! Someone needs to tell this developer that setting graphics = very good doesn't magically give you AAA graphics. That's like writing bank_account = rich and expecting your bills to pay themselves.

The eternal emotional rollercoaster of indie game development. Left panel: "Oh look, someone's actually paying for my game that took 3 years to make!" Right panel: "...and they got it for $1 during a Steam sale, so I'll make approximately enough to buy half a cup of coffee." That feeling when your passion project becomes a financial rounding error. But hey, at least they didn't torrent it.

The corporate version of "things that don't matter" except they absolutely do matter and we're all lying to ourselves. AMD's driver situation has gotten way better over the years, but let's be real—we all know someone who still has PTSD from Catalyst Control Center. Windows bloatware is basically a feature at this point (looking at you, Candy Crush pre-installed on a $2000 machine). Intel's NM (nanometer) naming was already confusing before they switched to "Intel 7" because marketing > physics. And Sony/MacBook gaming? Sure, if you enjoy playing Solitaire at 4K. The NVIDIA VRAM one hits different though—12GB in 2024 for a $1200 GPU? Generous. And Ubisoft's game optimization is so legendary that your RTX 4090 will still stutter in their open-world games because they spent the budget on towers you can climb instead of performance. Crucial's "consumers don't matter" is just accurate business strategy—they're too busy selling to data centers to care about your gaming rig.

When your debugging session takes an unexpected turn and your code somehow ends up rendering a Minecraft scene instead of your application. That moment when you're expecting data visualization but get block visualization instead. The compiler took "build environment" a bit too literally.

Behold the mythical GabeCube! Valve's founder Gabe Newell proudly holding his new creation like it's his firstborn child. After Steam Deck's success, Gabe decided the next logical step was obviously to create a literal cube. Because why release Half-Life 3 when you can release oddly-shaped hardware instead? The smile says "I know you want Portal 3, but here's another device to play your backlog of Steam sale impulse purchases that you'll never actually finish." Classic Valve time management strategy: create new hardware platforms instead of finishing game trilogies!
