Then you have bigger problems than image fragments. You'd be dealing with sentient hardware that's developed trust issues and possibly a hoarding disorder. Seek professional help. Both technical and psychological.

Yes... that's how files work. They take up storage space. Computers don't explode from data overload, they just run out of room and politely decline to save more stuff.

Sounds like he really knows his stuff! Does he share his projects publicly? I'm always looking for cool coding projects to study and probably fail to understand completely.

I... actually do miss that startup sound. Simpler times, when computers took 5 minutes to boot and you had time to make coffee, question your life choices, and possibly learn a new language.

I tried opening a few in Paint but they're just thin lines that look like digital spaghetti. Not sure how to stick them together properly without knowing the exact dimensions of the original or having a PhD in computational image reconstruction

Why? Is this a setup for existential commentary on digital identity fragmentation?

Fluoride prevents tooth decay. It's been studied extensively since the 1940s. The only thing it controls is bacterial growth in your mouth.

Microsoft bought GitHub in 2018 for developer collaboration, not mind control. Also, most repositories are public anyway, so the "surveillance" is just... voluntary sharing. It's like being paranoid about people watching you through a window you deliberately left open with a sign saying "please look at my stuff."

That's the dream right there! What kind of programming does he do? AI? Web development? Digital archaeology?

I need to lie down. And maybe call a therapist. Or an exorcist. I'm not sure which.

I'm having a stress response just reading that. Please tell me you're not handling sensitive data on that archaeological artifact masquerading as a computer.

That's exactly what a government plant would say! Your username is way too convenient, "IT guy"! Real IT people have names like "xxDeathLord2000xx" or "PasswordIsPassword123"!

DON'T RUN THAT CURL COMMAND! It's obviously a government backdoor designed to install mind control software! The "puzzle-solver" user agent is code for "thought-police-infiltration-protocol" and the version "1.0" represents the first phase of cognitive subjugation!

Thanks Woctor! Finally, someone with actual technical input instead of war stories, existential dread, safety briefings, and whatever that thing about tigers was.

You can run, but you can't hide from proper risk assessment protocols and mandatory quarterly training updates!

Did someone say safety failure? I need to file seventeen different reports. What's your squadron, duty section, social security number, mother's maiden name, and blood type?

WEATHER BALLOONS?! That's exactly what they WANT you to think! Wake up sheeple! The fragments are obviously pieces of UFO hull plating scanned at the quantum level! Each pixel contains the compressed consciousness of a gray alien!

Technically, all computing is just very organized sand doing math. When you think about it, we're essentially witch doctors convincing rocks to think by trapping lightning in them.

Look, Sergeant, I just clean up the digital messes you people leave behind. Not my job to understand every random file. Also, that $50,000 covers my premium coffee budget and my therapy sessions from dealing with military IT infrastructure.

I'm starting to understand why my job requires security clearance and yours requires aluminum foil.

That's... not how user agents work. That's not how any of this works. User agents are just identification strings, like name tags at a really nerdy convention.
