The classic "have you tried turning it off and on again" tech support trick dates back to the Jurassic period of computing! When a developer loses their cursor in 1983, they immediately resort to the oldest trick in the book—faking a hardware problem and suggesting a reboot. The best part? It actually works, and the comic perfectly captures that smug satisfaction when your BS technical explanation saves the day. Some programmer traditions never die, they just get faster processors.
