Computer tricks Memes

Who needs sketchy "Download More RAM" websites when Windows lets you create a 600GB paging file? For the uninitiated, a paging file is Windows' way of pretending your slow hard drive is actually RAM when you run out of the real thing. It's like replacing your sports car with a tricycle but insisting it's the same thing. The joke here is that someone's setting up a massive virtual memory file and calling it "600 Gb of RAM for free!!?" – as if they've discovered some brilliant hack, when they're actually just creating the computing equivalent of writing IOU notes to yourself. Your computer will technically function, but it'll run with all the speed and grace of a sloth swimming through molasses. But hey, at least the Task Manager will be impressed!

The eternal tech support cycle in four panels. Someone asks how to do something on PC, the "expert" smugly responds with keyboard shortcuts (Alt+F4), and then... silence. Why? Because Alt+F4 closes your active window/application immediately. It's the digital equivalent of telling someone the best way to clean their car is with sandpaper. The third panel shows the moment of realization that they've been bamboozled into closing whatever they were working on. Classic programmer hazing ritual that never gets old... unless you're on the receiving end.
