We Teach A Million Languages In 3 Months

We Teach A Million Languages In 3 Months
Ah yes, the classic "$800,000 bootcamp" that promises to transform you into a software engineer in just 3 months by teaching you *checks notes* approximately 87 programming languages, including some that barely exist anymore. Nothing says "legitimate education" like cramming Fortran, COBOL, and Assembly alongside React and TypeScript into 90 days. The "if you can't find a job you can spit on our faces" guarantee is the cherry on top of this scam sundae. Spoiler alert: The only thing you'll master in 3 months is how to lose $800K faster than a startup with free snacks and ping pong tables.

Pay-To-Prompt: The Ultimate Career Opportunity

Pay-To-Prompt: The Ultimate Career Opportunity
Ah, the pinnacle of career advancement! Not only do you get to work for free crafting AI prompts, but you also have the privilege of paying $500 weekly for the honor. It's basically like an expensive gym membership where instead of building muscles, you build... absolutely nothing for yourself. The modern tech equivalent of "pay-to-play" has evolved into "pay-to-work." Next up: oxygen subscription services where breathing at your desk requires a premium tier membership.

Has Your Credit Card Been Stolen? Let Me Help You With That!

Has Your Credit Card Been Stolen? Let Me Help You With That!
OMFG, the AUDACITY of this banner! 💀 It's basically a phishing scam disguised as a security check - the digital equivalent of a mugger asking if you've been mugged recently and offering to hold your wallet for safekeeping. The irony is so thick you could spread it on toast! The bright green background with that reassuring checkmark is just *chef's kiss* perfect psychological manipulation. "Has your credit card been STOLEN?" they ask, while literally attempting to steal it themselves. It's like watching a vampire run a blood donation drive. I can't even!

When You Get Aliexpress CPU

When You Get Aliexpress CPU
Ordered an Intel i9 for $29.99 with "free shipping" and got this masterpiece of engineering. That's not thermal paste under the plastic wrap—it's the tears of whoever tried to compile React on this thing. Comes with exclusive features like "runs at 0.01 GHz" and "melts when you open Chrome." The rubber bands are actually the most advanced component here—they're holding together both the CPU and your shattered dreams of running anything more complex than a calculator app.

Found 2080 For Less Than 10 Bucks! Still Intact!

Found 2080 For Less Than 10 Bucks! Still Intact!
The GPU shortage has driven us to new lows. Someone thought they scored an RTX 2080 graphics card for under $10, but ended up with... toothpaste. The "Power Shield" is protecting your teeth, not your frame rates. At least your breath will render in 4K while you're sobbing over crypto miners buying actual GPUs at 300% markup. The only ray tracing this provides is the trail of mint as you spit it into the sink.

Check Whether Your Private Key Is Used

Check Whether Your Private Key Is Used
THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of this website asking you to paste your private key to "check if it's already taken"! 💀 This is like a burglar politely asking if you'd mind leaving your house keys under the doormat so they can "make sure nobody else has a copy." HONEY, the moment you paste that SSH key, it's not private anymore - it's basically a VIP party invitation to your entire server! The green "Success!" message is just the chef's kiss of evil genius. "Congratulations! Your digital identity has been successfully compromised! Would you like fries with that?"

When Localhost Isn't As Safe As You Think

When Localhost Isn't As Safe As You Think
The classic "hacker tells victim to check out malware on localhost" trap. Except this time, the victim smugly navigates to localhost:8080, thinking they're immune... only to discover the malware actually runs locally. It's the digital equivalent of saying "your shoe's untied" and somehow still getting someone to look down despite them wearing sandals.

The Real Software Engineering Certification

The Real Software Engineering Certification
Nothing says "I'm a real software engineer" quite like random people asking you to hack Instagram accounts. The true initiation ritual isn't getting your degree or landing that first job—it's when your aunt's neighbor's cousin's dog walker thinks you're basically Anonymous because you can fix the Wi-Fi. Welcome to the club. Your complimentary caffeine addiction and existential dread are in the mail.

Simple Utility To Check If Your Credit Card Is Hacked

Simple Utility To Check If Your Credit Card Is Hacked
Ah yes, the classic "let me check if your credit card is compromised by... *checks notes*... asking you to enter all your credit card details." The irony is thicker than legacy code documentation. This scam software brilliantly solves the problem of "is my credit card in a hacker's database?" by ensuring it definitely will be after you use it. Congratulations, your card wasn't in any hacker database until you voluntarily uploaded it to one. It's like asking a fox to guard your henhouse and then being surprised when chicken is on the menu.

The Three Stages Of Developer Support Hell

The Three Stages Of Developer Support Hell
The evolution of asking for coding help in three stages: 1. Programming communities : "Have you tried Googling it?" *downvotes your question for being a duplicate from 2013* 2. Linux community : "I see you're struggling. Here's a 47-page manual and a cryptic one-liner that will either fix everything or format your hard drive. Figure out which!" 3. Web3 communities : "Hey fren! I can totally help! Just connect your wallet to this definitely-not-suspicious smart contract I made at 3am!"

The Sheer Joy Of Dealing With It Department 404

The Sheer Joy Of Dealing With It Department 404
When free money meets corporate trickery! 💸 This poor soul got BAMBOOZLED by their own IT department who set up a fake phishing test disguised as a $20 voucher email. The classic "too good to be true" trap that we ALL would've fallen for! Now they're stuck in mandatory security training purgatory, probably watching those soul-crushing videos about not clicking suspicious links... while dreaming about what they could've bought with that non-existent $20. The skull emoji says it all - they're DEAD inside! This is the corporate equivalent of your parents saying "just kidding" after promising you ice cream. 😭
