Everything

The audacity of this random user telling AMD—the literal creator of Ryzen processors—that "Ryzen >> amd" is peak hardware comedy. It's like telling Tolkien that hobbits are better than the guy who invented them. The official AMD account's simple "WHAT" response perfectly captures that moment when you're so baffled by someone's technological illiteracy that your brain temporarily stops functioning. Even the compiler couldn't parse that logic.

Windows 11 shows up with a novel novel-length list of requirements that would make NASA blush, while Linux just sits there with its cute penguin face basically saying "Got electricity? Cool, we're good to go." After 20+ years in tech, I've seen Microsoft turn simple OS upgrades into hardware shopping sprees more times than I care to count. Meanwhile, Linux is over there running on everything from supercomputers to your abandoned toaster. The "optional" electricity bit is just *chef's kiss*.

A masterful historical burn. The meme references Marie Antoinette's infamous "let them eat cake" quote when told the peasants had no bread, showcasing her disconnection from reality. Similarly, suggesting Macs as an alternative to expensive GPUs is equally out of touch—like recommending a $2000+ computer known for mediocre gaming performance to someone who can't afford a graphics card. It's the tech equivalent of suggesting caviar to someone who can't afford ramen.

Ah yes, the "nice setup" people. First they lure you in with their fancy battlestations on r/programming, all RGB lights and ultrawide monitors. Then you notice it—they're using a $3000 rig with no mousepad, dragging their $150 gaming mouse directly on the desk like psychopaths. It's like seeing someone drive a Ferrari with the parking brake on. The longer you work in tech, the more you realize these are the same folks who use production as their testing environment.

The gaming industry in a nutshell: Cyberpunk 2077, a game from 2020 with futuristic graphics that would make your bank account cry, running at a buttery 100 FPS with an RTX 5090 (a GPU that probably costs more than your car). Meanwhile, Borderlands 4, allegedly coming out in 2025, will somehow manage to look like it was rendered on a toaster from 2019 and still make your high-end rig struggle to hit 45 FPS. Game optimization is clearly an art form that some developers treat like abstract expressionism – nobody knows what the hell is going on, but we're all supposed to nod and pretend it makes sense.

OH. MY. GAWD. The absolute TRAUMA of 2000s computing! When your computer wouldn't start and you'd literally KICK THE POWER BUTTON with your TOE because you were too lazy to bend down! 💀 Remember those tower PCs where the power button was conveniently positioned at FOOT LEVEL? As if the engineers were secretly testing if humans could evolve into tech-savvy flamingos! The sheer DRAMA of balancing on one leg while your other foot performed delicate computer surgery! And don't even get me STARTED on how we'd blame the "boot code" when really it was just our barbaric toe-poking habits that probably corrupted half the hard drive! The dark ages of computing, I CANNOT EVEN! 🦶💻
