- samat 5mo agoStill burned they did not ship winFS then
- breppp 5mo agoGood thing it eventually grew to replace NTFS
- geerlingguy 5mo agoThere are likely a number of folks on this forum now who were born after Vista was released.
- _kb 5mo agoNope. 2007 is like 2 or 3 years ago, tops.
- charcircuit 5mo agoVista released over 19 years ago.
- stavros 5mo agoYou missed the joke.

- dspillett 5mo ago> Encouraging such behavior will waste people's time having to deal with people on this site who can't do simple arithmetic. We shouldn't encourage people who can't properly read and understand a comment before replying either, but here we are talking to you who jumped on correcting the “2 or 3 years” to “19 years” without noticing that “2007” was in the post so the poster was obviously well aware of that. > being unable to subtract two simple numbers is not funny 1. That is not the joke. It is referencing how humans experience the passage of time at massively different rates to the actual reality, especially as we age. 2. Humour is subjective. So is, to an extent, the amount of it that is acceptable in a given environment. Sense of humour is sometimes objectively non-existent, as you helpfully illustrate by clear example.

Which is why I first included the possibility the commenter didn't know the current year. >humans experience the passage of time at massively different rates The commenter did not say anything related to this. The relative speed of time was not referenced. >that is acceptable in a given environment Humor is not very acceptable on this website compared to others, so it's important to protect this and not let outsiders from other sites to try and bring their humor here.
- dspillett 5mo ago> Which is why I first included the possibility the commenter didn't know the current year. > > humans experience the passage of time at massively different rates > The commenter did not say anything related to this. The relative speed of time was not referenced. But it was implied, by the very common joke format. You made no direct reference to the current year. Your argument there would be more convincing if you were as clear and detailed in your meaning as you expect everyone else to be. > and not let outsiders from other sites to try and bring their humor here. Thank you, Mr Account-Created-In-2021, for defending those of us who have been around since 2013, 2011, and 2010, from the humour of outsiders like ourselves!

- ChrisMarshallNY 5mo agoI attended the Longhorn event, where they played Director scripts, and told us it was “live code.”
- harrouet 5mo agoVista is what made me get my first Mac. I hope Apple does not make the same mistake.
