Look What They Took From Us

Look What They Took From Us
The great port extinction of our time! This meme perfectly captures the devolution of laptop design from "Swiss Army knife of connectivity" to "hope you enjoy carrying dongles for the rest of your life." Modern laptops went from having every port imaginable to basically two identical USB-C ports that require you to carry an adapter the size of a small country. Minimalism is great until you need to connect literally anything. The bottom MacBook is practically begging "please sir, may I have some more ports?" while the top one is like "we heard you like dongles, so we removed everything else."

This meme is a hilarious play on words with "OnlyLAN" (a parody of OnlyFans) where someone is holding up an Ethernet cable in front of a hotel building like they're connecting to it. For the networking nerds out there, this is peak humor! Instead of subscribing to content creators online, this person is making a "physical connection" to the building - literally plugging in via LAN (Local Area Network) instead of using WiFi. It's that classic IT joke format: "I don't need cloud services, I prefer my connections to be physical and direct!" The visual gag of holding up an Ethernet cable to a distant building perfectly captures that "I'm technically connected" energy that network engineers live for. The "toyoko-inn" hotel chain visible in the image makes it even funnier - like you're paying for premium access to this specific hotel's network. Exclusive content indeed! ๐Ÿ˜‚
