Seriously, the speed in which windows is getting worse since after win 7 is almost comical.

Win 7 was peak. Bonus points for giving option to make it look like Win9x by disabling all eye candy options.

Windows had 3 peaks. 95, xp, and 7.

Now I just use Linux. I know not everyone can, but for everything I do or need to do it all works just fine there so I couldn't be happier.

My favourite Windows is still 2000.

Isn't that the one you could get to BSOD with a single ping?

[-] uncertainty@lemmy.nz 3 points 8 months ago

Do you mean the ping of death? That was pretty cross-platform and a bit earlier https://insecure.org/sploits/ping-o-death.html

No, the last version of my that was vulnerable was 3.5.1 2000 was better than xp for a year after XP came out. You couldn't even boot XP on a driver bigger than 128GB where 2000 had that bug already patched.
