I feel like many here don't remember having 20 popups constantly open in the taskbar. It was maddening. Popup blockers were the first adblockers.

When was this? People have been moaning about Windows for over 30 years. If you just go by headlines, Windows has been getting worse and less capable with absolutely no improvement, and there are people who (probably on this site) unironica

Those names dont serve to degrade people. For me, as a British person, this software is basically called Retard. I'm not sensitive enough to care but some people will find this offensive or at least make them pause before suggesting it

The 'everyone writes bloated code nowadays' argument is ancient, and those C/C++ applications would have been considered bloated. Your argument comes across as anti progress and pro 'old thing'.

These are hilarious and written in a very tongue-in-cheek manner. Some favourite quotes: "XMLDeveloper seeks validation" "Hang on a minute, this is a 32-bit development environment. What will I do with all my 16-bit code?&quo

Theres multiple reasons why you should not do this, but ignoring the fire risks and the risks of death to the person doing this, the current can reach the street side, and kill or injure engineers working on the power systems.
