HTML: The Silent Epidemic

HTML: The Silent Epidemic
Well, that explains why my doctor keeps asking if I've been "exposed to HTML" during checkups. And here I thought my code was just dirty because of poor indentation. The real kicker? These are the same people who'll confidently tell you they "know computers" before asking you to fix their printer.

When Your 2TB Dream Drive Is Actually 7GB Of Disappointment
Ah, the classic "2TB for $7" eBay special! What we're seeing here is the digital equivalent of buying a "Rolax" watch from a guy in an alley. The VP's bargain USB drive claims to be 2.1TB but the validation software reveals it's actually 7.3GB - about 0.35% of the advertised capacity. These scam drives are modified to report a fake capacity to your computer while actually containing a fraction of the storage. They'll happily let you "save" files beyond their real capacity, but those files just vanish into the digital void. Like trying to pour a gallon of water into a shot glass and wondering where it all went. Nothing quite says "executive decision-making" like a VP who thinks storage technology follows the same pricing model as ramen noodles. At least the validation software delivered the bad news before any important company files went to digital heaven!

Next week: Elon discovers that computers use electricity and declares it a conspiracy.
