Want that cool image as a background? Whoops.

Want to use that image with that nifty ML tool you downloaded? Uh oh.

That random web service at least five years old with an upload field for an image? Roll the dice; win on snake eyes.

Want to use that picture as an avatar in a forum that isn’t that popular? Hmmm.

How about that WordPress blog of yours? Hopefully on 5.8 or better; otherwise unsupported natively.

Would you like thumbnails on these downloads in your favorite Linix distro? Uh, maybe; Ubuntu didn’t get it until 22.10.

How about Windows? Well, 11 is fine, but 10 needs an extension.

None of this can’t be overcome with some effort, but it’s kind of painful right now.

I’d rather see the savings in the army of Javascript I apparently need today for the ‘modern’ web experience. Image files have gotten lots of love, but hey, here’s a shitty 27 year old language designed for validating form input!

Ah, yes, what a nice way to be sliced into a thousand pieces at once if you trip. Even more fun if they get knocked out of their retention mode.

Is there a rubbing alcohol dispenser that sprays from the adjacent room after you go through? In case the first set of blood-curdling screams aren’t loud enough.

This won’t hold true if your RAM gets to the limit, and you end up creeping into swap space. If you do, everything becomes a potentially streamed asset! While certainly not ideal, you’ll feel it harder on a HDD vs. SSD. Remember, you need at least 16GB of RAM for this monster, which these days is basically standard on most PCs (and about 70% of all Steam users as of August have no more than 16).

Maaannnn… I got another steering wheel. Anyone willing to trade for an ignition system? I’ll settle for two NPCs who will get out and push!

Yeah, and this only gets worse with bigger monitors. Want to use that 43" TV as Monitor #3? Wigglin’ isn’t going to help.

Real users give up and start using keyboard shortcuts to move crap around until they find it again.

Or just get a wireless gaming mouse with adjustable DPI, crank it up to 11 billion, and try to catch it doing near lightspeed as it goes through all four monitors at once. The only drawback is that, according to physics, it will likely have experienced time dilation, which means your mouse cursor has aged significantly in the short time it was in flight.
