The eternal battle between Linux update strategies, beautifully illustrated by someone who's clearly spent too much time staring at a terminal.

Top panel: "Here's how to keep Linux updated for normal humans" - followed by a list of options that would make any sane person question their life choices. Manual updates that will eventually kill your system? Hard pass.

Bottom panel: The character suddenly perks up at options that would make any system administrator weep tears of joy. Immutable systems with automatic updates? Rolling releases with daily snapshots?

It's the perfect encapsulation of how Linux users gradually transform from "I just want my computer to work" to "I need my system to update itself 47 times daily while maintaining perfect atomic snapshots with zero downtime." The addiction is real.
