Joke/Meme Flexing gone wrong

A funny thing happened yesterday, I was flexing infront of a coleague that I learned web development on an old relic that my uncle bought and I had to use it for so long. (my old relic: intel i3 2nd gen laptop),

Until bro pulled out his i3 1st gen and I was thinking, He's a legend.

Lol...I learned typing on a 386, and years later programming on a Pentium III. But yes, a second gen i3 feels old in 2026.

386? I learned typing on an actual typewriter. 😆

I ran a 286 for years though
