Perhaps she owns a shitload of stock in the RAM and AI companies, is making mega bank off of this shituation, and is delighted to be reminded of it? Or maybe she's just super high. Who knows!

Some sort of psychological disorder? I’ll bet she takes him home to add to her skin collection.

Oooh, RAM, not Ram. I was wondering why anyone would want to talk about American pickup prices.

If you want to pick up girls, try eating a whole pineapple. Just hold it in one hand and bite through the armor plating. Girls love that

They stole it because an original meme was too expensive.

You just gave a manosphere YouTuber an entire episode of an idea. I hope you’re happy with yourself.

Because he's so smart and charming and knowledgeable about the issues that matter, so she's completely enraptured by him.

Just the other day I was explaining how when you buy a 2 metre HDMI cable it tends to be only 1.8 metres long, because it's likely based on a historical measurement of "six feet", and basically all the women nearby were completely seduced and pretty much wanted to marry me on the spot.

Because the flirting is working?

Like a male bird showing off an ornate and colorful tail to attract a mate, the male nerd demonstrates his earning potential by being excessively nerdy.

People around here acting like being a nerd doesn't attract women.

Your other recent comment shows this to be a lie. We have no need for lying operators of repost accounts here. Be honest.

Almost like the point of memes is to be shared by the populace right?

Ah, that must be my problem! All I ever tell them about is how DisplayPort 2.1 is good for future-proofing but 1.4 is probably good enough for most uses at this point in time, and how I hope it someday replaces HDMI as the default standard.

Didn't realize chicks only go crazy for HDMI specs...

It is probably a person who has a Reddit account and reposts memes they like from there so Lemmy has more content.

It might also depend on the specific women involved.

Displayport fangirls are out there, mate. You just need to find them.

Yeah yeah, I know they're not a monolith. The thing is, "out there" doesn't help me. People say "DisplayPort women exist," but any time I take a look around all I see is everybody flaunting their HDMI knowledge, and no matter how many times I bring up DisplayPort, I get no bites! Not even a nibble!

Try and find somewhere with a video wall, made up of multiple screens - perhaps some sort of trade expo, shopping centre (mall), public 'big screen' or an art gallery.

Those looking at the front of the screen, where the image goes, those are your HDMI girls. Those looking at the back of the screen, seeing how it's powered, connected, wired up etc, those are your displayport girls.
