Data-compression Memes

Oh honey, someone just discovered the DARK MAGIC of file compression and decided to traumatize us all with this visual metaphor! The top panel shows your innocent ingredients—lemon, butter, cheese—living their best uncompressed life, taking up all the space they want like divas. Then BAM! Bottom panel hits you with the WinRAR treatment where suddenly everything's been VIOLENTLY SQUEEZED into a tiny archive that's somehow still all three things but also... not? The butter didn't even make it, sacrificed to the compression gods for that sweet, sweet file size reduction. It's giving "I need to email this 500MB folder but my attachment limit is 25MB" energy. The lemon stayed though—compression algorithms really said "citrus rights!" 🍋
