Time Has Been Flying Since 2020

The eternal tech support paradox strikes again! Every programmer has experienced that moment of internal conflict. First comes the righteous indignation: "I write code, I don't fix printers!" Then the pause... because let's face it, we do know how to fix that printer. Not because our CS degree covered "Advanced Printer Troubleshooting 101," but because we've spent years debugging cryptic error messages and reading obscure documentation. The printer is just another poorly designed system waiting to be conquered. We'll fix it, but we'll be silently judging the manufacturer's UI choices the entire time.

The irony of NVIDIA DLSS in a nutshell. Left side: crystal clear landscape. Right side: same landscape but blurry as hell with the NVIDIA DLSS logo proudly stamped on it. Apparently "next-gen gaming" means trading actual clarity for the privilege of your GPU fans sounding like they're preparing for takeoff. Remember when we optimized games instead of just smearing vaseline on the screen and calling it "enhanced"? Those were the days when 60 FPS didn't require a second mortgage. Now we're paying premium prices for the honor of squinting at fuzzy textures while our electricity bills fund a small nation.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of desktop elitists watching laptop peasants dare to *checks notes* ENJOY COMPUTING ON THE GO! 😱 The sheer AUDACITY of someone coding without a 50-pound gaming rig and seventeen monitors! Desktop warriors clutching their RGB pearls while laptop heathens frolic in coffee shops with their puny machines, writing the same code but with the outrageous benefit of SUNLIGHT and HUMAN INTERACTION! The HORROR! Next you'll tell me they don't even have custom water cooling systems that require a second mortgage! The nerve of some people, honestly!

The eternal struggle of PC builders trying to maintain neutrality in the GPU holy wars. Pressing both the "Not being a fanboy of Nvidia" and "Not being a fanboy of AMD" buttons simultaneously is the computing equivalent of Switzerland – theoretically possible but practically impossible. Meanwhile, everyone's wallet is crying in the corner as both companies charge "totally reasonable" prices that mysteriously keep climbing. The true enlightenment is realizing you're getting gouged either way, but at least you can pretend to be above the fanboy fray while secretly having strong opinions about DLSS vs FSR.

The diagram shows what our wrists were anatomically designed for (grabbing rats) versus what we're forcing them to do (clicking mice). No wonder carpal tunnel is rampant. Evolution didn't prepare us for 8 hours of Jira ticket updates. Maybe the real ergonomic solution is just releasing small rodents across our desks every morning.

Top panel shows assembly code with "is0dd" function checking if a number is odd by bitwise operations. Bottom panel shows someone who skipped all that and just lit up LEDs on a breadboard. Why write complex bitwise logic when electricity already knows if a current is odd or even? The universe's physics engine doesn't need your fancy algorithms - electrons have been doing modulo operations since the Big Bang.
