First Upgrade: 32 GB Ram

That moment when you finally build your first gaming PC after years on console, and suddenly there's a portal to another dimension of configuration options. Look at Morty freaking out over all those settings! His brain is executing a panic.exe while Rick's just standing there like "Yeah, welcome to PC gaming, where the frame rates are uncapped and the graphics settings actually matter." Console gamers: "Press X to play." PC gamers: "Let me just tweak these 47 graphics settings, configure my RGB lighting, update 3 different drivers, and troubleshoot why my second monitor keeps flickering when I launch Steam."

The internet is just a glorified Jenga tower of tech stacked on top of each other. At the very bottom, we've got ASML making the chips that power everything. Then Intel, AMD, and Nvidia making processors while hardware companies like Apple, Dell, and HP build machines around them. The Linux Foundation quietly holds everything up while DNS systems point traffic where it needs to go. Meanwhile, unpaid open source developers are literally carrying the weight of modern digital infrastructure on their backs. AWS and Cloudflare are making billions while V8 and WASM engines power "something happening in the web." And let's not forget Angry Birds flying around Microsoft's chaotic contributions to this technological house of cards. Remember: the next time your app crashes, it's probably because someone removed the wrong block from this precarious tower of dependencies that absolutely nobody fully understands!

When you're about to drop $415 on a Dell Workstation but then notice it's model 5070. That's not a PC, that's a glorified HTTP error code with a graphics card. Somewhere, a server admin just felt a disturbance in the force and doesn't know why. At least it's not model 404 - then you'd never find it after ordering.

The sacred resurrection of ancient tech! Floppy disks—those square relics that Gen Z thinks are just 3D-printed save icons—sacrificed themselves to digital obsolescence only to be immortalized as the universal "save" symbol. Their physical form perished so their spiritual legacy could live on in every toolbar across the digital universe. Next time you click that little square icon, pour one out for the 1.44MB martyr that died for your sins of not backing up your work.

Nothing breaks the laws of physics quite like desperate gamers with credit cards. The meme ranks the "fastest things on earth" with cheetahs and airplanes being respectable contenders, even the speed of light making a decent showing... but then there's the unholy velocity of scalpers snatching up GPUs before you can even finish reading the product announcement. For those who've spent the last three years trying to upgrade their graphics card without selling a kidney, this hits harder than a compiler error on deployment Friday. The red progress bar being completely filled just adds that extra twist of the knife.

The innovation we've been waiting for since 1981! Someone took a PC, made it smaller, and called it PC 2. Revolutionary stuff. Next they'll tell us it runs Windows 11 without crashing for a whole day. The tech industry's idea of a sequel is just making the same thing but in cube form. Square design, brave choice - because corners were the main problem with computing all along.
