Pac-Man Before Package Manager

I spent way too long trying to figure out why you needed a graphics library to write a package manager. Then I remembered that there's a video game called Pac-Man. I don't even use Arch Linux. I have no clue why I thought of the package manager before the video game.

A dark-mode social media post jokes about confusing a graphics library and package manager with the video game Pac-Man. The punchline is that the writer instinctively thought of the Arch Linux package manager before the famous arcade game, despite not even using Arch Linux. It is a relatable reaction to programming-brain associations and accidental overthinking.
