That's the "wizard" that installs all your software
- Lmao you finally helped me understand a meme I saw the other day saying “installation” is a valid school of magic
  
  It's also a subtle nod to a character in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion where a mages guild character states that "Restoration is a perfectly valid school of magic"

It's him. That's the installation wizard

That’s the Norse god of throughput.

Somewhere underneath all of those cables is a rack running business critical infrastructure!

My buddy worked as a datacenter tech under this guy with one other on the team and all 3 of them got pictures with this. This is the only one that went viral as far as I've seen though.

Amy Wong: He knows when you are sleeping,
Hubert J. Farnsworth: He knows when you're on the can,

That's MR root

I thought it was this guy: https://xkcd.com/838/ (Maybe both?)

We did it. We found the archlinux.

Data for the data god, cables for the wire throne!
