Premium Cooling For Budget CPUs

Programmers will spend $150 on a gaming mouse with 15 programmable buttons but only use it to click "Run" and "Copy/Paste Stack Overflow solutions." The irony of owning hardware with more features than your actual code is *chef's kiss*. Sure, those macro buttons could automate your workflow, but why do that when you can just continue your sacred ritual of "ctrl+c, ctrl+v, pray it works"?

Ah, the eternal CS vs. Engineering rivalry. Patrick thinks he's found the perfect burn—CS majors are just programmers who run screaming at the mention of actual hardware. Meanwhile, the CS major is having an existential crisis at the mere utterance of "circuits" and "CPUs." As someone who once spent three hours debugging code only to realize my monitor wasn't plugged in properly, I feel personally attacked. Hardware is just software you can't Ctrl+Z when you break it.

Ah yes, the classic inventor's shortsightedness. Charles Babbage built the first mechanical computer but thought it was just a fancy calculator. Meanwhile, Carl Benz over there invented the automobile but probably figured it was just a horseless carriage for rich people. Both completely missed that they were fundamentally changing civilization. It's like inventing time travel and using it exclusively to make sure your coffee never gets cold. The real genius is often the second person who says "wait a minute..."

Remember when NVIDIA and AMD used to compete for who could give us better value? Now they're joining forces in a sacred pact to empty our wallets with overpriced 8GB GPUs. It's like watching two ancient enemies realize they can make more money as a cartel than actually competing. The budget gamer sits in the corner, crying into their 5-year-old graphics card that's somehow worth more now than when they bought it.

Nothing says "I've made terrible life choices" quite like debugging BIOS code at 3AM and suddenly realizing you're staring at a boot menu that says "Hard Dick Drive" instead of "Hard Disk Drive." The best part? This isn't even a typo you can blame on autocorrect. Some sleep-deprived firmware engineer had to manually code this masterpiece, then it passed through QA, got shipped to thousands of computers, and nobody noticed until users started giggling like 12-year-olds during system setup. Legacy hardware: where professionalism goes to die.

The joke that never gets old, unlike your GPU! When Nvidia "displays their entire stock" of RTX 3080s in 2020, they're literally showing the ONE card they had available. Four years later and we're still experiencing the same supply chain theater - fancy press releases followed by six months of "out of stock" notifications. Scalpers continue to be the real GPU architects, designing elaborate systems to separate you from your money while you desperately try to run Cyberpunk above 30fps. The crypto bros may have moved on, but somehow graphics cards remain as elusive as documentation that actually matches the codebase.
