Desktop Optional
Windows 11 shows up with a novel novel-length list of requirements that would make NASA blush, while Linux just sits there with its cute penguin face basically saying "Got electricity?

Meanwhile, Linux is over there running on everything from supercomputers to your abandoned toaster. The "optional" electricity bit is just *chef's kiss*.

And It Is Reaching EOL
The meme shows a character rapidly aging after learning Windows 10 was released in 2015. It's the perfect visual representation of how software lifecycles hit different in tech years. Microsoft announced Windows 10 is reaching End of Life (EOL) in October 2025 – meaning an OS that feels like it just came out yesterday is already being put out to pasture. Nothing makes developers feel their own mortality quite like realizing the "new" operating system they reluctantly upgraded to is already being shown the door. Time in tech is measured in dog years, apparently.
