No Cycle Left Behind

When your monitor claims to run at 169,998 Hz but the human eye can only see up to 60 Hz anyway. Congratulations, your friend just bought the Ferrari of monitors to drive it exclusively in school zones. That's like buying a quantum computer to run Minesweeper or hiring a Michelin-star chef to make you toast. The marketing department must be high-fiving each other for convincing someone they need refresh rates measurable only by scientific equipment.

Nothing says "secure facility" like threatening execution-style murder for unauthorized access. Guess regular locks were too mainstream for the sysadmin. The warning sign perfectly captures IT's subtle approach to security: "Touch our precious servers and get kneecapped." And they wonder why no one volunteers to help during server migrations.

Back in the 60s, programmers were literally PUNCHING CODE into cards by hand! 🤯 The person in the image is holding up punch cards with the caption "COMPILERS TOOK MY JOB" - it's basically the original "robots are stealing our jobs" but for coding! Before compilers existed, humans had to manually convert code into machine-readable formats. Then BAM! Compilers showed up and were like "I got this" and an entire profession vanished faster than free pizza at a hackathon! Those punch card operators never saw it coming!

Your GTX card that ran Cyberpunk just fine suddenly becoming a prehistoric relic the moment RTX 5090 drops. The tech industry's planned obsolescence at its finest—where your perfectly functional hardware gets dinosaur-shamed by some kid with daddy's credit card and rainbow RGB lighting. "Oh, you're still using a GTX? That's cute. My new card can render individual pores on a character's nose at 500fps while making breakfast."

Microsoft just invented the server rack again, but with a fancy cloud name. Remember when we moved everything to the cloud because on-premises hardware was "obsolete"? Now they're selling us the same hardware back as "Azure Local" with a premium price tag. Next revolutionary product: a keyboard you can actually feel when typing.

Python's Global Interpreter Lock strikes again. Your beefy 16-core processor reduced to a single-core experience because GIL only allows one thread to execute Python bytecode at a time. It's like buying a Ferrari and being told you can only use one cylinder. The rest are just... decorative.
