Govnt Spending: "Computers Need to be Gender Sensitive"

[Anonymous 42]

Windows 8; the latest and greatest? I was so f~~~in p~~~ed when W-8 tried to corral me to the “cloud”. No help menu, no nothing! Just follow all the other cattle to the fempuff cloud corral! F~~~ that! That piece of s~~~ went back before I gave it flying lessons out the f~~~ing window!
There’s programs you can “BUY” to make W-8 look and feel like W-7, I’m still running XP with no support, I gotta run diagnostic programs just to keep it alive, oh, and it’s a whole lot of fun removing viruses manually.
What will they think of next? a computer that follows you around all day nagging and bitching! That’ll be the day I teach it baseball!

If you want a good laugh, check out this story. Aparently the Plaque on the Pioneer 10 space probe depicting a man and a woman is now deemed to be mysogynist and sexist.

Quote: The plaque shows a man raising his hand in a very manly fashion while a woman stands behind him, appearing all meek and submissive

Errm no, it portrays neither of these things.

Fortunately they can’t do anything about it.

Windows 8 was made for t~~~’s with it’s smartphone interface, even Server 2012 didn’t escape the madness. Windows 10 is even worse since it defaults to collecting data about you, has more intrusive features and is intended to railroad you into the cloud.
