If Only It Were That Simple

Remember when "burning a CD" meant laser-etching data onto a shiny disc instead of committing arson? Nothing makes you feel like a digital fossil quite like explaining to Gen Z that we once had to wait 20 minutes to copy Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory" onto a circular piece of plastic that would skip if you breathed on it wrong. And no, you couldn't just "AirDrop" it—you had to physically hand someone your mix like a technological caveman. Those were dark times... with progress bars.

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...

The poor machine is SCREAMING in binary as you surgically remove chunks of its consciousness! It's like performing brain surgery on someone who's fully awake and watching you do it through a mirror. The computer's last thoughts: "WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?!" Pure technological torture wrapped in a four-panel tragedy!
