Do explain. How is that relevant to not getting bugfixes for your OS?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

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.

Yea last one was SP2 if you are rebuilding the entire win7 OS yourself, you definitely are wasting your talent at crap.

Maybe you should try something from this decade? Or is it to hard to grasp if it doesn't come on a floppy disc and with built in malware?

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?

Not really , you are just really really stuck up Microsofts butt. Tried this fancy fashionable mode chic Linux?

What you can't do? Use a properly patched OS.

So basically, you derive your identity from this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Not really but better than derive it from a place of such monumental hybris and ignorance to think they can patch their windows 7 at par with Microsoft themselves. There is a reason no one serious uses win 7 online anymore. Same reason cars without seatbelts are few on the roads.

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.
