The Goalposts Never Stop Moving

When your dating life and file system both have compatibility issues. FAT32 is a file system with a 4GB file size limit that most developers have moved on from years ago - just like this guy's dating prospects. Nothing says "I'm still running Windows XP" quite like proudly declaring your love for obsolete storage formats while staring pensively at your multiple monitors.

The dream of coding on a 1.5-inch screen has arrived! VS Code squeezed onto a smartwatch is the ultimate flex for those who think mechanical keyboards aren't uncomfortable enough. Imagine debugging that production issue while grocery shopping—"Hold on, let me just pinch-zoom into line 457 to find that missing semicolon." Your wrist cramps aren't a bug, they're a feature! The best part? You'll spend 99% of your time just trying to tap the right button without hitting three others. Pair programming now means asking someone with smaller fingers to help.

Your laptop isn't preparing for takeoff—it's just trying to run npm install. At 25,500 RPM, that fan isn't cooling your CPU—it's auditioning for NASA's next rocket engine. The cores are hitting 65°C while idling, which means opening Chrome would probably trigger your home's fire alarm. Remember when we used to put laptops on our laps? Now they're basically portable space heaters with keyboards attached.

When your RAM arrives and you're so desperate for that performance boost that you can't even wait to get inside the house. Just rip open that cardboard beast right there on the doorstep like it's Christmas morning and you're five years old again! The delivery guy probably hasn't even pulled away yet and you're already installing those sweet memory sticks on the cold, unforgiving concrete. Is it professional? No. Is it sanitary? Absolutely not. Do we understand the primal urge to download more RAM IRL? 100%. Sometimes the build just can't wait, and honestly? Valid.

The eternal struggle between man and Molex connector. Those 4-pin power connectors have the grip strength of a hydraulic press and the stubbornness of a legacy codebase. They sit there, mocking you, as your fingernails break and your palms bleed trying to disconnect them from your motherboard. And just when you think you need actual boxing training to defeat this inanimate object, you realize you could have just used a small tool instead of treating your PC build like a street fight.

Congratulations! You've just witnessed a technological funeral without even sending flowers. Remember when we'd spend hours burning installation CDs, driver discs, and backup DVDs? Now we just click "download" and forget physical media exists. That beige CD drive is basically a museum piece now—like finding a dinosaur fossil in your desk drawer. The silent tragedy is that some poor Verbatim disc factory worker probably shed a tear the day cloud storage took over and nobody noticed. Pour one out for those 700MB circular heroes that got us through the pre-broadband dark ages.
