10 MB!? What kind of bloated code is that! WordPerfect and Lotus 123 used to fit on a single 720 KB double density 5.25" floppy! The command.com DOS 6.22 operating system was less than 64 KB. Assembly language FTW!
Make programming great again.
No really, large harddrives, huge amounts of ram, etc.. they are all great but it has made programmers lazy.

who the fuck is supposed to be buying what all these fake programmers are coding?
Not I, said the pig.
