I feel like there's a really good joke here but I do not see it. Please elaborate.

Maid building PC meme from CPU fan perspective 1000011581

[-] Secret300@sh.itjust.works 29 points 11 months ago

But like. Is this just a picture or is there a video? Asking for a friend

[-] doctorn@r.nf 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

...and a stranger.

I am this stranger. ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] CannedTuna@sh.itjust.works 22 points 11 months ago

I mean, I get it, but what is this from?

[-] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 15 points 11 months ago

Ah. Got it!

[-] Rand0mA@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

There isnt. This latest generation of teens/young adults like to dress up like some anime hussy maid and run arch linux with full RBG and a plushie they probably fuck

I was confused for a moment, because intuitively a CPU fan would look in the same direction as it blows air, so it should look into the heatsink. The fan looking away from the heatsink seems weird to me.

Or the owner installed the fan in the wrong direction.

You've been doing it wrong your whole life.

[-] akash_rawal@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Hmm... Maybe I should adjust my priorities.

[-] yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 14 points 11 months ago

This took me way longer to understand than it should have.

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 16 points 11 months ago

Yeah, I don't get it and I've been thinking about it too long now.

The meme is not sufficient in itself to make sense. It only works in the context of weibos fawning over japanese maid cosplay mixed with PC building... From the early 2000s from the look of the computer

Having worked with maids in real life, no fucking way I'm letting anyone with a electrostatic feather duster near a ungrounded circuit board, especially if their wearing polyester uniforms with insulated platform shoes...

[-] virku@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Thanks! I have never been a part of anime related communities/subcultures so I would have never picked up on that.

[-] yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 5 points 11 months ago

See the picture I attached. Now pretend you're horizontal on the floor looking up at the maid building the PC. You are the CPU fan looking up

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 9 points 11 months ago

Wait is that seriously it?

When I first saw it I thought it was that some brand makes their fans in Japan, or "maid in Japan". And I thought that was a kinda lame joke. But it works a lot better than a reference as obscure as thisโ€ฆ

I saw the original posted too many times to not come up with a response, I thought they were mostly here on /c/linuxmemes but maybe not. Usually captioned "average Arch user". ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] Hominine@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yeah, like the FPS style porn, I get it.๐ŸŽฎ

[-] doctorn@r.nf 1 points 11 months ago

I'd be looking up otherplaces if given the chance... ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] ringwraithfish@startrek.website 3 points 11 months ago

Can you enlighten the rest of us simpletons?

[-] ichmagrum@feddit.de 5 points 11 months ago

Where did that come from, anyway?

[-] f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

I thought, at first, that it had something to do with the Evil Maid threat vector.

[-] doctorn@r.nf 14 points 11 months ago

I actually assumed there was a new asian band called Chinese Persons Unlimited or something... ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] xia@links.hackliberty.org 5 points 11 months ago

Meme-foul... using title as words on the image... 50-yard penalty.
