Tech Innovation Curves

Five of these panels show the typical innovation S-curve where technology evolves from primitive (MS-DOS, Internet Explorer) to peak performance (Windows 95, Chrome). Then there's music... where we apparently peaked at Napster and it's been downhill ever since. The real innovation was clearly the ability to download entire discographies without paying a cent. Progress isn't always what corporate overlords want you to believe it is.

Being A Linux User Is Hard

Linux users watching through the blinds as Windows gamers get excited about Battlefield 6. Just another day in the "I use Linux, by the way" club, where gaming support remains the eternal unicorn. Sure, Proton exists, but we all know it'll be six months before it works without corrupting your entire home directory. Meanwhile, we'll just be over here compiling our kernel... again.

The OS Freedom Spectrum

The eternal OS personality divide in four panels: Windows users: "Can I uninstall Edge?" Windows: "ABSOLUTELY NOT! THE FABRIC OF REALITY WILL UNRAVEL!" Linux users: "I'm going to uninstall the bootloader." Linux: "Whatever floats your boat, champ." And that's why Linux users have that smug look. They're not superior—they're just allowed to shoot themselves in the foot with military-grade weapons while the OS gives a thumbs up.

It's Just Like Using Them On A Browser

Microsoft's grand app store strategy: wrap websites in a trenchcoat and call them native apps. The shocked cat perfectly represents devs discovering that Microsoft Store "apps" are just Chrome windows in disguise. Electron apps without the dignity of being upfront about it! The ultimate "we have native apps at home" moment. Next-level efficiency or peak laziness? The line between progressive web app and glorified bookmark continues to blur...

The Real Malware Was The Security Software We Installed Along The Way

The eternal irony of "antivirus" software that behaves suspiciously like the very thing it's supposed to protect you from. McAfee and Norton have evolved from useful security tools into resource-hogging subscription services that bombard you with popup notifications while slowing your system to a crawl. The "Change My Mind" meme format perfectly captures the hill many developers and IT professionals are willing to die on. And honestly, who hasn't experienced that moment when your CPU usage spikes to 99% because Norton decided NOW was the perfect time for a "quick scan"? The real malware was inside your computer all along—you just paid for it voluntarily.
