The GPU Wars: A Star Wars Story

The GPU Wars: A Star Wars Story
The great GPU wars continue. Intel Arc arrives as "A New Hope" in December 2024, only for NVIDIA to immediately crush that hope with RTX 5070 in January as "The Empire Strikes Back." Then AMD swoops in with RX 9070 XT in March as "Return of the Jedi." Just another predictable chapter in the never-ending saga where your wallet is the true casualty. The Force is strong with price gouging.

Behold the evolution of versioning sophistication! From the barbaric simplicity of "1, 2, 3" (did we even have computers back then?), to the refined elegance of "1.0, 1.1, 1.2" that makes project managers feel professional, and finally ascending to godhood with "8086, 80286, 80386" – where you're not just versioning software, you're naming it after the silicon it runs on. Nothing says "I've been in this industry since punch cards" like referencing Intel processors from the 1980s. The true power move isn't semantic versioning – it's naming your releases after increasingly obsolete hardware.

The Clown Makeup Of Hardware Recommendations
The slow transformation into a full clown as you try to sell AMD products only for customers to walk out with Intel and Nvidia instead. It's the hardware equivalent of recommending Vim to a new programmer and watching them install Visual Studio Code. The pain is real when you give honest tech advice but customers just follow whatever their favorite YouTuber said last week. That 14700K + 5070Ti combo? Doesn't even exist, but they'll swear their cousin's roommate got one on sale.
