![XKCD #349 - "Success": [Four full-width panels arranged vertically, each with a label for number of hours elapsed, with a title above the stack of panels.]; Title: As a project wears on, standards for success slip lower and lower.; [Megan is standing behind Cueball, watching him as he sits at a desk working on a desktop computer on the desk.]; Label: 0 hours; Cueball: Okay, I should be able to dual-boot BSD soon.; [Cueball is on the floor fiddling with the open tower in front of him. Megan is not shown in the panel, but may be off-panel unless Cueball is talking to himself.]; Label: 6 hours; Cueball: I'll be happy if I can get the system working like it was when I started.; [Cueball is standing in front of the computer, which now has a laptop plugged into the tower. Megan is still not shown in the panel, but may be off-panel again.]; Label: 10 hours; Cueball: Well, the desktop's a lost cause, but I think I can fix the problems the laptop's developed.; [Cueball and Megan are swimming in the sea; an island and a beach can be seen in the distance.]; Label: 24 hours; Cueball: If we're lucky, the sharks will stay away until we reach shallow water.; Megan: If we make it back alive, you're never upgrading anything again.](https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimgs.xkcd.com%2Fcomics%2Fsuccess.png)
