A Senior Sys Admin Selects A Monitor That's Ripe

A Senior Sys Admin Selects A Monitor That's Ripe
Ever wondered where ancient CRT monitors go to die? Apparently, they form mountains for sys admins to climb! This poor soul is navigating the graveyard of 90s technology like he's shopping for avocados at Whole Foods. "Hmm, this one's still too hard, this one's too soft... ah, this beige beauty feels just right!" Meanwhile, his company probably upgraded to flat screens in 2005, but he's still hoarding these relics because "you never know when you'll need a 30-pound monitor that can double as a space heater." The ultimate tech hoarder's paradise—where e-waste management policies go to cry.

WinRAR Is The Absolute Legend

WinRAR Is The Absolute Legend
Oh. My. God. Someone is actually walking around with a WinRAR bag! The AUDACITY! This is like spotting a unicorn in the wild - someone who actually PAID for WinRAR after those 40-day trials that we've all been ignoring since the dawn of time! I'm DYING! 💀 This is the equivalent of finding someone who reads the Terms & Conditions or doesn't use Stack Overflow to copy-paste solutions. Absolute madlad deserves a monument for single-handedly keeping WinRAR in business while the rest of us have been clicking "remind me later" for two decades straight!

I Believe In 90s-2000s Internet And Technology Supremacy

I Believe In 90s-2000s Internet And Technology Supremacy
Behold the digital archeology exhibit of peak internet culture! That silhouette is bowing to the holy relics of an era when Clippy was your most reliable therapist and your MySpace Top 8 determined your social worth. Remember installing Windows from 12 separate CDs? Or when Flash games were the pinnacle of procrastination technology? This was computing before everything became a subscription service with rounded corners and minimalist icons. Back when "this is not a virus" was definitely a virus, MSN status messages were Shakespearean poetry, and Neopets taught an entire generation about digital pet neglect and basic HTML. The raw, unfiltered chaos of early web design was beautiful in its ugliness—like finding art in a dumpster fire.

I'm PS/2 Ports Old

I'm PS/2 Ports Old
When someone asks my age, I don't give them a number—I just show them PS/2 ports. If they recognize these ancient keyboard and mouse connectors without Googling, we're from the same tech paleolithic era. These circular relics with their color-coded pins were the USB of the '90s, except they required perfect alignment and a small prayer to connect properly. Nothing says "I witnessed the dial-up apocalypse" quite like remembering to check which color goes where. Kids these days with their USB-C will never know the satisfaction of that perfect *click* when you finally got it right after three attempts.

Grandpa Python: The OG Coding Language

Grandpa Python: The OG Coding Language
Turns out Python's been silently judging Java for being the "new kid" all along. While everyone's busy arguing about which language is better, Python's sitting there with its reading glasses on like "I remember when you were just a glint in Sun Microsystems' eye." Four years might not seem like much, but in programming years? That's basically a generation gap. No wonder Python looks at Java's enterprise features and just mutters "kids these days with their fancy garbage collection and verbose syntax."
