My dad was nice enough to be on camera at @METAPCs and talk about how I got started

Two RTX 5090s in one gaming PC. This is insane. What game would you play first?

A guy ordered one RTX 5070 Ti from Walmart for $1,099. Four showed up. About $4,400 in GPUs, probably because the warehouse mistook a whole case for one box. He did what anyone would do. He posted it on Reddit.

Thieves in California stole two trailers with NVIDIA logos on the side. They broke the locks, dragged them half a mile, and opened up 40,000 pounds of sand. The real hardware never left the warehouse.

Netscape owned 80 percent of the internet. Microsoft erased it with one word. Free. Then Google erased Explorer, and last year a judge ruled Google an illegal monopoly. Now the AI companies are coming for Chrome. War three.

7-Zip has no company, no ads, and no donate button. One Russian programmer has maintained it alone since 1999. He refuses money and almost never speaks. Half the internet zips files through one hermit's hobby.

Microsoft never actually made Space Cadet Pinball. So when the ball fell through the table on 64 bit Windows, nobody could read the code to fix it. They cut the game, and the rights now belong to EA.

Turns out when you die, your Steam games do too. A guy asked Valve about passing his games to his family, and the answer came back in writing. "I regret to inform you that your Steam account cannot be transferred via a will."

Every kid in the nineties knew a secret about Microsoft. Type seven ones into Windows 95, NT, or Office, and the installer just let you in. The entire security check was whether your digits divided by 7.

Sony just told PC players they're done getting the single player games. Within months, a tool appeared on GitHub that converts PS5 games into native PC programs. Last time Sony sued PlayStation-on-PC tech, Sony lost.

A whole country just realized Microsoft can switch them off. It started when US sanctions hit a prosecutor in The Hague and his email went dark. The Netherlands is now building its own Windows.

Nobody took the $80 Minion router seriously. Then engineers tore Kevin open, found elite hardware inside, and he sold out in 12 hours. Scalpers now want $138 for Kevin. Bob remains $29.99. Poor Bob.

In this economy, the best PC deal in America is in your closet. Old laptops, old routers, old power supplies. All of it has a second life. Your e-waste is a parts store.

You Don't Own Your Tech Anymore Spotify bricked every Car Thing it sold. BMW tried subscription heated seats. The receipt used to be the end of it. Now it's the sign-up form.

Gaming PCs Used To Have Flames Chrome. Giant side fans. Cases straight out of a street racing movie. Now every build is the same black box. What happened?

Nobody would pay $29 for WinRAR. So WinRAR made a $150 bag. It sold out. Someone asked why even use WinRAR. Official answer: "We have a bag."
