Is Mayonnaise A Roguelike?

The EXISTENTIAL CRISIS of staring at two buttons labeled "Ray Tracing" and "Path Tracing" and having ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE what unholy difference exists between them! 💦 Meanwhile, your GPU is SCREAMING in the background as you toggle between settings that might as well be labeled "Make Computer Hot" and "Make Computer SLIGHTLY HOTTER." The audacity of game developers to assume we know what these rendering techniques do beyond "pretty graphics go brrr" is just... *chef's kiss* MAGNIFICENT.

OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of game developers in 2023! 💀 There you are, innocently browsing Steam for some summer gaming bliss, when suddenly—BAM!—you're slapped in the face with system requirements that might as well say "Sorry, peasant, go buy NASA's supercomputer first." Your pathetic little potato PC is sitting in the corner, practically weeping while the shiny new games flaunt their need for 32GB RAM, the latest GPU that costs more than your rent, and storage space that could fit the entire Library of Congress. Meanwhile, your 5-year-old graphics card is having an existential crisis just trying to render the game's TRAILER. The gaming industry has basically created a caste system where your hardware determines if you're royalty or a street urchin begging for frames per second!

The duality of programmer perfectionism is a beautiful thing to behold. Top left: spending 47 hours meticulously organizing virtual factories in Factorio with conveyor belts that would make Marie Kondo weep tears of joy. Top right: obsessing over system architecture diagrams until your eyes bleed because "IT MUST BE PERFECT." Meanwhile, bottom left: the actual code you're paid to write has security so weak it might as well be a "Please Don't Hack Me" sticky note. Password literally hardcoded as "Password"? *chef's kiss* Bottom right: villain from a silent film declaring "MY JOB HERE IS DONE" because hey, it compiles and passes that one test you wrote! The optimization is clearly happening in all the wrong places. But the code runs in production, so... ship it!

The mighty Nvidia, creator of graphics cards that cost more than my car payment, boldly declares "I fear no man" only to COMPLETELY LOSE IT at the sight of its own creation - the GTX 1080Ti! 💀 Why? Because this legendary GPU was TOO GOOD for its own good! Nvidia accidentally created such a beast that people REFUSED to upgrade for YEARS! The 1080Ti was so powerful and well-designed that it made future releases look like overpriced disappointments! It's like baking a cake so perfect you can never bake again without everyone saying "but remember THAT cake?" Talk about shooting yourself in the foot with your own excellence! 🔫👣

The digital hoarding phenomenon strikes again! That sweet dopamine hit from clicking "Purchase" during Steam sales is vastly superior to the actual commitment of downloading and playing the games. My Steam library has more unplayed titles than a bookshelf at an illiterate's house. It's basically a digital museum of good intentions at this point. The backlog grows faster than technical debt in a startup with no code reviews.

When your Notepad app somehow needs 8GB of RAM just to display "Hello World" but some absolute madlad is out here trying to run GTA 5 on a PlayStation 3 with the processing power of a calculator watch. The duality of modern software development is absolutely UNHINGED. On one side, we've got bloated Electron apps that could probably run a small country's infrastructure but instead just... open text files. On the other side, game developers are performing literal black magic to squeeze every last drop of performance out of hardware that should've retired years ago. It's giving "I spent six months optimizing my sorting algorithm to save 2ms" versus "I just downloaded 47 npm packages to center a div." The contrast is *chef's kiss* levels of absurd.
