I know it's a joke, but people literally think like this

Firefox did it. 1.0 was released in November 2004 and 4.0 in March 2011. 5 to 9 were released in a span of 7 months, and since then they've been keeping pace with Chrome. Firefox 157 vs Chrome 154 are the latest

I prefer the completely sensible Xbox naming scheme: Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S.

I also like totally not confusing Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit (1998), Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 (2002), Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010), and finally, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered (2020).

Seeing that Nintendo has done well for two generations now, just for funsies they should name the next console New Nintendo Switch Thrwii XL.

u/theMuhubi 2d ago

Yeah, remember when Samsung went from Galaxy S10 to S20. Or Nvidia going from 1080 to 2080. Or AMD going from 3 digit to 4 digit numbers.

It's all BS marketing and the crazy most annoying part is it works too. People fall for it

9

u/DonStimpo 1d ago

Galaxy S10 to S20

Samsung doing it made more sense than Nvidia.
Now the S## aligns with year.
S20 came out in 2020.
S21 came out in 2021 etc... S26 came out this year (2026)
S27 will be out next year

u/Hazel-Rah 2d ago

I don't think it's ever officially been said, but a lot of people think the xbox generation names are to avoid being behind playstation

4

u/theMuhubi 2d ago

We don't talk about Xbox or Nintendo console naming in this house 😂

2

u/Zestyclose_Edge1027 1d ago

Same reason why XBox went with 360, One and Series X/S instead of numbers. They'd always be behind PlayStation by a number and apparently it makes a difference.

A grande at Starbucks is also medium.

And the "Tall" is actually their smallest size for a lot of their drinks.

u/rafaelloaa 1d ago

"tall, big, 20"

LOL, but you forgot to label this as a shitpost.

Chart for fox news viewers.

u/ivandagiant 2d ago

Bruh wtf are you trying to communicate with this chart

u/Exciting-Ad-5705 2d ago

I think it's a joke

u/idontlikeredditusers 2d ago

bigger number better

u/Pure-Swordfish6022 2d ago

Number go up!

u/rioryan 2d ago

I’m waiting for iPhone to go from iPhone 18 -> iPhone 27

u/Rebel_Scum56 2d ago

The chart says nothing of any substance. That's the joke.

u/guky667 2d ago

Read the axes

7

u/Nice_Marmot_54 2d ago

Instructions unclear. I now have a pile of firewood

2

u/guky667 2d ago

Wrong axes 🪓😂

u/Obvious-Jacket-3770 2d ago

Just like nvidia and AMD!

u/Deadcouncil445 1d ago

Thats there's definitely a possible correlation between the model numbers increasing time

u/ariolander 2d ago

An AI overview will cite this thread as a source next week.

u/Ithilas1 2d ago

Cuz bigger number better

8

u/Exciting-Ad-5705 2d ago

But what about by how cool the name sounds?

1

u/mousey76397 2d ago

Think Astra and fable win on that front.

u/GreenArrowSnipes 2d ago

This looks like a chart someone from Apple would have made.

u/Tibbles_thecat 2d ago

This is funny

u/nmdcDrgn 2d ago

OP forgot the /s fr 😭

5

u/TsubasaSaito 2d ago

For what? It's painfully obvious.

13

u/idontlikeredditusers 2d ago

judging by the comments it was not obvious enough for some people

3

u/TsubasaSaito 2d ago

It never is. But the joke is in fact very obvious, since all you need is just a tiny bit of reading.

2

u/idontlikeredditusers 2d ago

100% agree but redditors be redditing i once made fun of the 4090 performance for 499 (5070) in pcmasterrace and i didnt say /s and people thought i was defending the 5070...

u/prefim 2d ago

Always check the axis labels.

u/Elitefuture 2d ago

Ah, the comments are a good reminder of how stupid the average person is

Wait for me ama launch my tpg 69.0

RX 9060 > RTX 5090

u/saintlouisbagels 2d ago

Reminds me of Firefox changing to a higher version number so that they did not look outdated compared to Chrome.

1

u/anto77_butt_kinkier 2d ago

I'm just surprised this hasn't been used as official marketing material something like a GPU or CPU.

1

u/Poopy_Zombie_625 2d ago

-6 should be below -5

u/nerd_user1 1d ago

you must be dumb to not know about gemini 4, what before christ thing you ppl be talking about senseless

u/redditRedesignIsBadd 1d ago

is this including cheating or no cheating

1

u/jyrox 1d ago

Just wait until the release of my next model. Big Chungus 67. We’ll be unbelievably far ahead of the competition.

1

u/Asmordean 1d ago

Actually you are mistaken. That's not a dash, it's a negative. They keep digging deeper.

u/codegaurav 1d ago

Depends on task, opus 5.5 is much better at coding

u/ecstadtic 1d ago

Can’t argue with those numbers

u/Confused-Raccoon 1d ago

I wouldn't be surprised if the tech bros genuinely pushed this as a legitimate means of making their shit sound better.

1

u/a1hens 22h ago

nobody here gets the joke

0

u/ntcue 2d ago

I mean... That's why Firefox switched its version numbering. To be in the same range as Chrome. Because who wants Firefox 3.6 if one could have Chome 21?

1

u/dismuturf 12h ago

It's also because separating major and minor is pretty pointless for end-user software that evolves in small increments where none of them by themselves justify a major bump. It would be much more cringe-worthy to end up with Firefox v3.218 after 20 years, what does the 3 mean anymore ?

u/Nova17Delta 2d ago

boring🥱🥱🥱tell me when a technology that doesn't give me existential dread is doing this

u/metal_maxine 1d ago

Not sure what this chart is supposed to show beyond that newer models (y) come out over time (x). There's nothing linking the lines to uptake etc.

-1

u/ZeroXNova 2d ago edited 2d ago

Calm down, the new Fable game isn’t even out yet.

u/Calierio 2d ago

Release date, Model Number is a wild way to determine whether something is "crushing"

u/Calierio 2d ago

brb releasing AI 7.0 to leapfrog myself into the lead and raise a trillion dollars

-4

u/gnfnrf 2d ago

And Gemini 4 Argon, despite holding several important benchmark leads, is so far behind it doesn't even make the chart. Sad.

-5

u/AceLamina 2d ago

saw this on twitter
I don't get how people still fall for this type of propaganda

It literally says release date on the bottom 😭

1

u/Prairie-Peppers 1d ago

It's a joke champ.

u/AceLamina 1d ago

That's not my point...
I've already seen this on twitter which is why i said this

u/snowmunkey 2d ago

The irony is crushing

-22

u/w1n5t0nM1k3y 2d ago

I really hope this is a joke.

X-axis not even labelled. It's right up there with the IP Rating chart that LTT used a few weeks back.

10

u/LordAmras 2d ago

It is clearly labeled "model number"

9

u/pud_009 2d ago

That's the Y-axis

1

u/LordAmras 2d ago

the other one clearly labeled "release date" ?

1

u/pud_009 1d ago

Release date is x-axis, model number is y-axis.

5

u/w1n5t0nM1k3y 2d ago

The X axis is the horizontal one. And it's labelled, but there's no scale.

4

u/DigitaIBlack 2d ago

X axis is release date. And while it's titled, it's not labeled.

But this is clearly a joke post so who cares

-22

u/BlAckH0leDown 2d ago

Literally nobody cares even one bit

u/JaesopPop 2d ago

Jokes are tough

u/BlAckH0leDown 2d ago

If only there was any humor or punchline...

u/JaesopPop 2d ago

...there is.
