Sony Why Rule

Turns out those childhood shape sorters weren't just toys—they were USB insertion simulators. We spent years shoving squares into triangular holes only to grow up and still need three attempts to plug in a USB. The universe's most sophisticated training program, and we all failed spectacularly. At least modern USB-C is reversible, so now we only need two attempts instead of three.

SWEET MOTHER OF STORAGE NIGHTMARES! Windows 11 on 45,686 floppy disks?! Just IMAGINE the absolute hellscape of sitting there, feeding disk after disk into your computer like some deranged digital hamster for what would literally be WEEKS of your life! You'd be gray-haired and developing carpal tunnel syndrome by disk 387, contemplating your life choices by disk 12,493, and probably dead of old age before you even reached the halfway point! And don't you DARE sneeze near disk 32,651 or you'll have to start ALL OVER AGAIN! Modern operating systems have gone from megabytes to gigabytes to "let's just consume your entire existence" bytes!

When your PC is so dusty it qualifies as an archaeological dig site, but you're still like "yeah, perfect candidate for Linux." Nothing says "I believe in resurrection" quite like installing a penguin-powered OS on hardware that looks like it survived the Dust Bowl. The irony is that Linux will probably run better on this fossil than Windows would on a brand new machine. That's not dirt—it's just extra thermal insulation!

That moment when you realize the "Protective Boot" isn't some fancy security feature but just the plastic cap on your Ethernet cable. Spent 30 minutes googling how to configure it in Cisco IOS only to discover it's literally just keeping dust out of your connector. Network engineers with CompTIA certs sweating nervously right now.

The duality of every programmer when family asks for tech support. First panel: confident, top-hat wearing gentleman pondering a printer issue like it's beneath his intellectual capacity. Second panel: same gentleman gleefully announcing "NOT A CLUE!" with the enthusiasm of someone escaping a trap. Third panel: the crushing realization that he's now obligated to try anyway because he's "the computer person." Being able to build microservices architecture doesn't mean I know why your printer is making that weird grinding noise. It's like asking a neurosurgeon to fix your kitchen sink because "you're a doctor, right?"

Ah, the classic "innovation" that makes you want to throw your PC out the window! Nothing says "technological progress" like needing three hands and the patience of a saint to remove a RAM stick without snapping your motherboard in half. It's like they specifically designed it so you'd need to perform finger gymnastics while silently praying you don't accidentally launch your expensive memory module into orbit. Whoever decided one clip was "sufficient" clearly never had to troubleshoot RAM issues at 3AM with a flashlight clenched between their teeth. This is why computer builders develop forearm strength rivaling professional arm wrestlers.
