Funny, I saw this to an extreme, a ways back.

Someone posted for software help on some forum about something and... they described everything. I shit you not, their description was a determinate system in it of itself.

CPU, GPU, SSD, ram, thermal fans, size measurements, age, resolution, price point, model, kernel version, installed package count, filesystem setup, update log, journalctl, dmesg, Xorg log, genome sequence. And the kicker?

First comment:

ok but i'm not sure what you're asking. what's the problem, exactly?

No other comments.

Haha almost sounds like my style before refining this skill, although maybe not that extreme.
