Because it reminds you of your pre-depression days

In today's age of shit UI design, broken software, and constant spying who isn't depressed?

>2017
>using an OS that hasn't received security updates in 7 years

>Why is Windows 2000 so fucking comfy?
Because computers were considered to be workstations, not Facebook machines.

who gives a flying fuck? if you have an IQ over 5 you won't have to worry about this

win7's classic theme looks exactly the same.

Enjoy your screen tearing

Glossy icons.
But when I started using Linux with Chicago95, it stopped bother me because there are bigger issues in Win95 UI replicas.

>1mb of ram
>fuck transparancy

The only retarded one here is you. Just having that thing connected to the internet is a security risk. You were probably compromised within 5 minutes of taking that thing online.

posting my windows 2000

It's behind a router with its built-in firewall turned on and ads blocked through the /etc/hosts file. If I connected it directly to the modem it would have got infected with several worms before it even got to the desktop.

delusional retard detected

Common Desktop Environment

nobody explicitly targets those shitty old operating systems anymore

I enjoy how autistic Sup Forums is about meaningless shit like screen tearing.

Doesn't mean they don't get infected by botnets and worms.

lol you're fucking cracked in the brain

>screen tearing
>meaningless
Spotted the pleb among plebs

>screen tearing
>not meaningless

spotted the Sup Forumsfag among Sup Forumsfags

yeah if you think they're invincible by merit of their age you're fucking retarded, but it's not an apocalypse to plug something into a network that's been firewalled to shit while using general good browsing practices

I've put a lot of NT4/2K/XP shit to work on isolated networks and nothing has ever happened
keep repeating it forever, maybe some day you'll realize it's not an argument

there is nothing you say worthy of any argument. you're just a tinfoil hat retard who has no basis except "muh security', which was irrelevant as soon as you connected to the internet. you make terry davis seem like a normie.

what
I'm not OP you retard

>good security is not security

But Windows still looks mostly that way OP

kill yourself faggot

How can I get the key of an adm in windows 10 being user?

How to enter a cisco server?

kill yourself faggot
kill yourself faggot

after you, m'lady

terry is a fucking normie you faggot

What theme is that? I like

neiio.deviantart.com/art/Classic-X-628290958

kill yourself m'faggot

Why would I kill myself? Here's my reasoning on why I wouldn't:

If I live, there's always a chance of having good feels.
If I die there is zero chance of having good feels.
Easy choice to not kill self.

holy fuck what a commie

Hahahahahahahahahaha

Fucking retard


Hahahahhahahhahahhaha

Can you show me Linux users try out Windows 7?

I've been trying to get a 95 vm usable for modern day shit

It's surprisingly difficult

>pre-programmed responses for Sup Forums

I use linux since a long time ago, but seeing how lots of people here praise windows 7 so much and bash linux, I decided to try it. To my realisation this "windows 7 is good" thing is an elaborate troll; here are my reasons:

Just after finishing installing it I rebooted and noticed that it wrote over grub, thus forbidding me to boot my other OS's. Why would you even do that? Why doesn't it check if there are other OS's installed and let me choose?

After my first dissapontment I booted into my fresh windows 7 install and tried to install drivers for my gpu, after 5 minutes trying to find a package manager and some googling I understood that windows doesn't work like that! You have to go to the website of the GPU manufacturer to download drivers! WHY????!!!! Linux had package managers since before I had hair in my penis, how can windows, an OS made by a fucking billionaire corporation, don't have a simple package manager? I fucking had to use "internet explorer" (a fucking excuse to a good browser) to get a real browser!

And it doesn't stop there! you have to look online for every program you want, all have different installers that make you agree to some obscure legal documents and try to install shitware like toolbars all over your computer! And that's not all, if you want to update most of these programs you can't fucking click somewhere to update them all, you have to update each of them manually, lots don't even have a way of updating them so you have to go to their site and download the new version!

Also you can't do fucking anything with the "command line", it doesn't bring any of the famous coreutils available on all Linux distros and even Mac OSX! The command line is a fucking joke only made to show that their excuse for an OS could be useful.

After raging for a few hours I understood your trolling Sup Forums and will stay away from that piece of crap you faggots love to rice

Did you try ReactOS explorer?
It looks like Windows 2000 and you don't have public remote exploits in your OS.

...

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

...

delet this.

...

I did run an X server successfully on it, and loaded modern Firefox that way, running on another machine. Usable as long as you don't use the browser to watch videos.

this, CDE is objectively the most patrician/aesthetic desktop of all time.

I'm not sure what you mean by x server?

that was workbench

I wish Win10 still had a classic theme. The release candidate did, but the fuckers took it out.

Move over pleb.

workbench looks like shit though
and it's ruined by the amiga fanbase

My nigga. I grew up with 2000 until XP SP2 came around. I honestly would go back in a heart beat but I'm unsure if it could handle software I use like firefox or any HTML5 browsers

kill yourself anyway faggot

I don't take orders from faggots.

The latest browsers to support 2K still work for most cases, but they've started eating shit with the new captcha lately, you have to click things in left-to-right order.

Since I don't go to those retarded porn websites or download shady links, browsing the internet on a 2000 machine doesn't seem vulnerable but there's always some risk involved

No, Windows 7's classic theme is a shitty veneer over Aero that looks nothing like Win2K.
Aero Basic, on the other hand, is actually aesthetic.

I was born in 1998 and I too think it's comfy

It's the best Windows.

N-nuh uh

I liked the one that SGI IRIX had more.

You people are all dumb niggers, pic related

...

yeah you do, you fucking moloch polyp
now kys

Make me

>Windows 7's classic theme is a shitty veneer over Aero

this is what 15 year old special needs children actually believe

>mfw people used to to turn off Aero to make their system faster without realizing they just offloaded all rendering duties to CPU instead of GPU

(((they))) will it

I'll keep replying until I win or I pass out but I won't kill myself no matter what happens so lol @you

just use an aero-accelerated classic theme. Only problem is that the window dialog buttons will be in the layout of Aero and not classic

you don't want to be an antisemite, do you?

I've got no problem with that, I don't even interact with Jews in my life.

>objective aesthetics.
>subjective mechanics.

>not using react or haiku
Faggot.

this
when will the flat/MATERIAL UI cancer end

>haiku
Just when 1.0 gets released

Is XFCE with the stellar theme a e s t h e t i c?

WISH WE COULD TURN BACK TIME

Huh, I was actually even more depressed at the time. Sucks to be you, I guess.

this.delet

oh vej, you should remember the six gorillion, respect the wishes of your ideological ancestors and neck

They will never be able to make Linux look like this (Canonical is too autistic for it)

This was already in the Age of Bloat.
5.04 was the last good release imo

5.04 was ugly and had bad hardware support, ubuntu 8.04 was really the prime

but 5.04 worked on my machine and was what brought me over from Knoppix so SUCK IT!

are you blind?

only if you suck mine 1st

i like beafanatix tho, it's a fork of 5.04

nice cat

DELET RITE FUCKING NAO

When were you depressed?
For me it was 2007-2010
Medicated 2011-2013

the things you mentioned plus it reminds one of a different time, when some things were a little better, or at least more exciting

when I used Windows that was XP or older, using computers was slightly more exciting since many things were still kinda new to me. heck, not even that, really: the things I actually did on my computers were simply advancing very fast compared to today.

nowadays its all just kinda normal. the things I do on the computer haven't really improved much since Win7 came out or something. it has already been like 5 years since the last time I found a new/exciting internet service or community (and no, that was not Sup Forums, that was already 10 years ago)

>tfw will never experience IRC, Sup Forums or torrents for the first time ever again

What are you?

TO THE GOOD OL' DAAAAYS

It needs to run from X.org and use a sans serif font. Besides that it's fucking perfect

r8

I never liked the grey 3D window borders and much prefer Windows 10 design.

>not even knowing what commie means
You must be 18 to participate in the discussions in this board

>hardware people:
>"hey we made it twice as fast!
>software people:
>"ohh good, lets addd useless transparency and a bunch of shit programing to make >the code twice as slow."
I swear without a SSD drive, windows would boot as slow as it did 20 years ago

Windows 2000 is dead grandpa get over it
