Bottleneck Blues: When Your GPU Dreams Outpace CPU Reality

OH. MY. GOD. The sheer EXISTENTIAL CRISIS of staring at an M.2 SSD and its socket like they're written in hieroglyphics! That moment when you've spent $200 on fancy storage and now you're just sitting there, surrounded by cables, questioning every life decision that led you to this point. The socket is RIGHT THERE, the disk is RIGHT THERE, yet somehow they might as well be quantum particles existing in different dimensions! And those tiny pins?! One wrong move and you've just created the world's most expensive paperweight! Hardware upgrades - where confidence goes to DIE! 💀

Pulling RAM from a running computer is basically performing a lobotomy on the poor machine. Those glitchy screens aren't just artifacts—they're the digital equivalent of your PC's death rattle as its volatile memory gets yanked mid-thought. It's like trying to remove someone's hippocampus while they're reciting poetry. "I think that I shall never see— *BZZZZT* —KERNEL PANIC: MEMORY NOT FOUND." Pro tip: If you want your computer to hate you in its next life, this is how you make that happen.

Whoever made this deserves a promotion and a psych evaluation. It's a brilliant visual pun using electrical circuit diagrams to illustrate computing concepts. Serial processing executes tasks one after another (like killers waiting their turn), while parallel processing handles multiple tasks simultaneously (killing your CPU efficiency but getting the job done faster). After 15 years of optimizing code, I still chuckle when junior devs discover threading and suddenly want to parallelize everything. Sure kid, enjoy your race conditions and deadlocks—I'll be over here with my popcorn.

Finally collected all the Infinity Stones of IT support. With these power buttons in my possession, I can now solve 90% of all tech problems by simply telling people to "turn it off and on again" while feeling smugly superior. The other 10% require the legendary artifact known as "actually reading the error message."

The duality of PC maintenance: one minute you're like "just a quick dust cleaning" and the next minute you're in the trenches of hardware debugging with a non-booting system. It's the classic "I'll just do this simple thing" that spirals into technical chaos. The formal bunny announcement is basically your brain accepting the inevitable doom after you hear that click sound that wasn't there before. Murphy's Law of computing: the probability of catastrophic failure is directly proportional to how little time you have available.

The AUDACITY of the universe to take my wish so literally! 😭 Our poor Baby Yoda PC gamer makes a completely reasonable wish upon a shooting star for GPU prices to "go down a bit" and what happens? THE STAR ITSELF PLUMMETS! Meanwhile, GPU prices remain stratospherically high, causing our little friend to cry actual tears. The cosmic betrayal! The astronomical disappointment! It's like asking for a raise and your boss hands you an elevator button. DEVASTATING.
