While You Were Arguing, Microsoft Was Building

Left Ctrl gets all the attention with a forest of microphones while Right Ctrl sits there wondering why it even showed up to work today. Just like in real life where everyone uses Left Ctrl+C/V/Z but Right Ctrl might as well be decorative plastic. The keyboard equivalent of that coworker who gets paid the same as you but does 5% of the work.

The eternal Microsoft licensing labyrinth claims another victim! Anyone who's survived a Microsoft audit knows this pain - trying to decipher their deliberately cryptic licensing rules is like trying to solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded while someone keeps changing the colors. After days of reading contradictory forum posts, conflicting official docs, and getting different answers from every MS rep, this admin finally reached enlightenment: "Screw it, I'm doing it my way." The beautiful simplicity of "one server, one license, two VMs" is the IT equivalent of finding inner peace. The best part? That defiant "Here are my 4 licenses for 4 servers with 8 VMs" stance. It's the sysadmin equivalent of telling the IRS "here's my math, fight me."

Microsoft wants $80 for Visual Studio? *dramatically removes sunglasses in horror* But wait! Subscription services for games? Xbox Game Pass? Ubisoft+? PlayStation Plus? Even the ESA (Entertainment Software Association)? *puts sunglasses back on coolly* The duality of developers: outraged at paying for coding tools while happily throwing money at gaming subscriptions. The compiler judge you silently.

Ah yes, the "Never Obsolete" computer with a blazing fast 566MHz processor and a whopping 64MB of RAM. Currently being used as a $2000 paperweight or a museum exhibit of technological hubris. That 56k modem is probably still faster than some hotel WiFi though. The real irony is that the sticker outlasted the computer's relevance by approximately 23 years and 364 days.

The ultimate corporate irony. McAfee, the company that's supposed to protect your computer, managed to crash the entire world with a botched update in 2010. Then their CTO bounces to start CrowdStrike—which is now a cybersecurity giant worth billions. For those who don't know the backstory: that 2010 update misidentified a critical Windows file as malware and deleted it from thousands of computers worldwide. Corporate networks collapsed. Hospitals went offline. Absolute chaos. Fast forward to today, and CrowdStrike is doing the exact same thing but with fancier marketing slides. The circle of tech life continues...
