A 5 panel comic. Panel 1: Bird has a sidewalk stand selling socks and “magic socks.” Li and Shoelace the cat approach. Li: “Excuse me, what makes these socks magic?” Panel 2: Bird: “They keep your feet warm.” Panel 3: Li: “Don’t all socks do that?” Panel 4: Bird (sweating nervously): Uh, but these socks do it with MAGIC." Panel 5: Li and Shoelace shown at home, sitting in lounge chairs, wearing their new “magic” socks. Li: “OOOOOH.”

      That’s ok, the socks have enough processing power to run doom so there is that for the hacker groups to get going at least.

          At one point Netflix did a silly DIY tutorial to make your own socks with embedded remote. The idea was the socks would detect when you fall asleep and would pause the stream.

          Maybe some of those could run Doom.
