Expensive tech Memes

Spent your entire paycheck on that "developer-grade" laptop only for it to transform into a jet engine the moment you hit compile? Nothing says "money well spent" like a machine that's simultaneously melting your thighs and preparing for takeoff. The fans spin so hard you could probably generate enough electricity to power a small village. And yet somehow, despite sounding like it's about to achieve liftoff, it'll still take 45 seconds to compile your "Hello World" program. Aerospace engineers should study programmer laptops—they've mastered the art of maximum noise for minimum performance.

The existential crisis of high-end hardware is beautifully captured here. You spend $3k on a beastly rig with enough processing power to simulate quantum physics, only to use it for... streaming cat videos and incognito browsing? The robot's initial philosophical questioning followed by the devastating realization is basically every developer who convinced themselves they "needed" 64GB RAM and a 12-core CPU for "compiling" and "virtualization." Meanwhile, we're all just Rick at the breakfast table, casually exposing the uncomfortable truth while Summer judges our life choices.
