if you haven't found your interest already you'll hate them both baka

Both will be boring depending on where you work. Some software companies have a lot of freedom for you to get up and leave for whatever reason as long as you're meeting your quota

You stare at code all day is true for the most part. But it is not boring. For me it is really a hobby, and i get paid to do it. Coding can be quite diverse. You can be making some fancy User experience, but at the sametime you can program some algorithm to determine something. Can you maybe go in detail what you expect from your job? Or specific questions about CS. Maybe I can help you.

Programming algorithms sounds pretty dank, but guys who design framework in engineering also sounds pretty dank. I'm fucking stuck, mate. How's the salary of CS vs Mechanical Engineering? I'm scared that I'll get outsourced in CS.

Outsourcing is only for standard programming task, stuff thats already been invented and done tons of time. For example basic authentication or webshop. You know stuff that doesnt really require any specific skills or thought process to solve the problem. Most outsourcing is: here a bunch of requirements and realise it. Also aslong you dont live some cheap country you wont be outsourced, if you do then dont try to get a job a company that does outsourcing.
Also programming is free, and there are plenty of online courses where you can start learning the basics. And orient on what kind of directions there are in CS.
