I usually just cherry pick the data that makes me happy. Works every time.

The one to the left is John Metroid from the popular video game franchise Metroid. The one to the right is Zelda from Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Could be rounding errors. At 50+, you don’t care about your exact age anymore

Even when computers did improve and became able to handle Vista people weren’t willing to change their minds about it. Windows 7 had a 1GB memory requirement. Why didn’t more people use Vista right before the Windows 7 launch?

Vista shows how important the initial reputation is. Everybody had made up their mind to hate it, even if the hate wasn’t fully justified. There wasn’t much Microsoft could do about it, other than releasing Windows 7.

Windows 8 on the other hand was genuinely bad.

Windows 7 recovered from the disaster of Vista. Windows XP recovered from Me. It has been a bumpy ride for a long time.

What a legend!

A few years ago it was sensational when someone managed to clear a few levels in max speed. Now all max speed levels have been beaten.

What’s next for NES Tetris? Feels like it’s more of an endurance game now.

AFAIK it has always been nagging about how much better things will be if you just connect your login to their Microsoft account.

It was the last Windows version that felt it was primarily made for desktop use.

Windows 8 tried to be a hybrid between mobile operating system, and Windows 10 and onward feels more like an advertising platform for Office 365 and Microsoft’s AI services.

Pac Man was younger when Halo was released than Master Chief is today.
