I still don't get it. What makes this company particularly funny?

  They make supercomputers, which are typically the size of a large room. It's quite unlikely you'll see one connecting to your free wifi.

    Cray Inc? Pun of crying.

      I'm pretty sure that's not the joke.

  Cray computers were very famous in the 1970s and 1980s as highly specialist, highly parallel super computers with a fantastic marketing gimmick: not only were they the same size as 5 large refrigerators, they also came with their own built-in couch. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray-1 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray-1 The idea of someone wheeling one of these into a cafe (because they are stealing the free wifi) causes me non zero amusement. The NSA example from someone else is better. Interestingly the only time I’ve ever had the pleasure of reclining on a Cray banquette was at the NSA’s cryptology museum at Ft Mead.
