Tech advice Memes

That guy who made a 10-year-old video begging you to buy just ONE stick of DDR5 RAM? Yeah, he was a prophet and nobody listened. Now you're stuck paying the price of a used car for memory modules while he's somewhere saying "I told you so." The real tragedy is that 4.5M people watched this wisdom and collectively thought "nah, I'll wait for a sale." Spoiler alert: the sale never came. DDR5 prices went up faster than your technical debt, and now that single stick costs more than your entire first PC build. Time travel is real, it's just locked behind YouTube recommendations trying to warn us about our future financial mistakes.

You spend years being the designated "tech person" in your friend group, fielding questions about why their printer won't work and explaining that no, you can't hack their ex's Instagram. Radio silence for months. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, they emerge from the shadows with actual tech curiosity! Your heart swells with pride. Maybe they want to learn programming? Build a website? Understand how databases work? Nope. Gaming PC. Because of course they do. The one thing that has absolutely nothing to do with your software engineering expertise but somehow you're still expected to know the difference between a 4070 Ti and a 4080 Super. Welcome to being the "computer friend" – where your CS degree qualifies you to be an unpaid hardware consultant apparently. At least it's not another "can you fix my phone" request, right? Right?

The PC building evangelists strike again! That special breed of tech enthusiast who somehow turns "I built my own computer" into a personality trait. They lurk in forums, waiting to pounce on any innocent parent asking about buying a pre-built gaming PC for their kid. Look, not everyone wants to spend their weekend watching 47 YouTube tutorials on proper thermal paste application or risk destroying a $500 graphics card because they got too enthusiastic with static electricity. Sometimes people just want a computer that works without becoming an honorary electrical engineer. Pre-builts exist for a reason. They're the "I just want to eat the damn cookie" option in a world full of people insisting you need to mill your own flour first.

OH MY STARS AND MOTHERBOARDS! He-Man is out here dropping tech wisdom bombs like it's the apocalypse! 💀 Non-upgradeable RAM is the VILLAIN of the computing universe! When that memory is soldered to the motherboard, you're basically TRAPPED in RAM prison for eternity! No upgrades! No escape! Just you and your pathetic 8GB until the end of time! By the power of Grayskull, heed this warning from our muscular tech advisor or face the HORROR of desperately trying to run Chrome with 47 tabs while your soldered RAM screams for mercy!
