Your Laptop Predicts Your Fate

Remember when game devs hand-crafted assembly code to squeeze every cycle out of the PS2? Now they just throw more lights at the problem and hope DLSS will save them. Modern devs staring at their RTX 5090 wondering why their unoptimized mess runs like a slideshow. "But I added ray-tracing!" Yeah, and your grass simulation is calculating the aerodynamics of each individual blade. Maybe learn to write a shader that doesn't require NASA's computing budget.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? Oh wait, you can't! Someone's kid built a "gaming PC" out of cardboard and paint. Complete with rainbow fans, a fake SSD, and what appears to be the Windows logo drawn by someone who had Windows described to them over a bad phone connection. The real kicker? It'll probably run Crysis better than my actual machine.

The great CPU architecture debate, summarized with minimal effort. On the left, x86-64 represented by a mathematical graph. On the right, ARM represented by... an actual human arm. And there in the corner, RISC-V illustrated with what appears to be lines of cocaine. The perfect technical comparison doesn't exi—

THE AUDACITY! Someone's out here trying to run Cyberpunk 2077 on what's essentially a digital fossil! 💀 Imagine blaming game developers for your prehistoric Dell Optiplex that was outdated when Obama was first elected! It's like showing up to an F1 race with a horse and cart and wondering why you can't keep up. That poor machine is begging for retirement while this person is demanding it render 4K explosions. The only thing that computer can run smoothly is Windows XP and maybe—MAYBE—Minesweeper if you're not too aggressive with the clicks.

That moment when you enable Secure Boot and your fancy RGB gaming PC refuses to boot up. The top panel shows Tom and Jerry eagerly pressing the power button, full of hope and excitement. The bottom panel? Pure panic as they realize they've just bricked their system. Secure Boot is like that friend who promises to protect you but then locks you out of your own house. Pro tip: always have a backup plan before messing with UEFI settings, unless you enjoy the thrilling adventure of rescue USBs and BIOS resets!

THE AUDACITY! The literal creator of Git and Linux - revolutionary tools that power our entire digital universe - has a modest standing desk and basic setup. Meanwhile, some random tech influencer who probably can't write a for-loop without Stack Overflow has a nuclear-powered RGB spaceship with enough monitors to surveil a small country! The irony is SUFFOCATING me. The person who built the foundation of modern computing doesn't need 47 fans glowing like a radioactive Christmas tree to validate his existence. True genius requires only a functional workspace and ZERO rainbow lighting.
