Gefängnisvergnügen

Can we also stop with the quasar-bright fucking white LEDs on every fucking thing in existence?

But you also failed to provide any concrete examples of what is supposed to happen to my Windows 7 machine connected to the internet.

What security threat, exactly? If you can show me that, I’ll buy a new PC with Win 11 this afternoon.

You have provided no substantive evidence of what I can’t do with Windows 7. You have provided nothing but vague fear-mongering while inflating your chest about what a biker bad-ass you are.

Yet you refuse to see that other people also make trade-offs. My tradeoff is that sometimes I can’t install piece of shit software like KiCAD that somehow requires Windows 11 to move lines on a screen.

No big loss.

I don’t think I’m “at par” with Microsoft, what kind of sickness is this? Your brain fascinates me.

“There is a reason no one serious uses win 7 online anymore”

Oh I see, you are a serious person doing serious business. Serious serious serious. Meanwhile not a single concrete example has been given to me about these serious things I can’t do.

“Same reason cars without seatbelts are few on the roads.”

There is no overlap between the physical world and software delusions. There is no physical safety hazard here. Meanwhile, millions of motorcyclists use no seatbelts.

Again, your brain is fascinating.

So basically, you derive your identity from this.

Bad news if you’re a tiger, I guess.

What from this decade can I not do? You seem to think this is fashion. It’s just technical crap.

Computers stopped solving real problems a long time ago. “Something from this decade” like what? Endless games for children that stunt your mind? AI fart videos?

Huh? And what does that have to do with running Windows 7? You can, you know… install all the patches even if Microsoft doesn’t supply them.

They’re called Service Packs.

If this is too difficult to grasp, we can talk about something else.

Where did I say not to get bugfixes for my OS, which is Windows 7?

Well one did fuck me in the ass while the other one stole my favorite underwear right out from the delicate cycle. Total animals.

But it sounds cool! Angelina Jolie and Sandra Bullock are waiting for me in my apartment to hack the web!

When you get your IT knowledge from the '90s movie Hackers…

Very simple: I’m one user.

Like dude how am I supposed to order burgers through skip the dishes if I don’t have Windows 11 and a 64 core CPU with 256GB of DDR18 super RAM running terabytes of vibe-coded AI slop!???

I just connected my Windows 7 machine to the internet and two Russians jumped out my serial port! One is holding me down while the other one is stealing the CPU from my washing machine! Send help!

This requires little more than a 286. It’s an elevator. Responding in times measured in seconds. What kind of computations do you think are required here? Imaginary quaternion matrixes? Squared?

But how else can it be safe to connect to the internet?

Luxury. All I had was a 186.

Why do people keep repeating this tired propaganda? What exactly do you think will happen?
