Welp, 2 days are left until it shutdowns :( Me and my friend have tried capturing the data traffic of it, but no luck. I hope there is a hero that will save them :)

At 23:06 (UTC -05:00; 20:06 07/30/2019 in Redmond), I just finished a reversi game on Windows Me. Maybe I can have the last internet game to be played on the OS!

Nope, I am having no problems.

Time is 6:55 PM here.

This is on a Windows Me VM on MS Virtual PC 2k4 on a win2k host:

Now 12:05 am in Redmond and I'm still getting whooped in reversi.

I thought M$ wanted me to throw away my T41 with windows me and head to the Windows Store to pick up a freemium copy of Candy Crush.

Or maybe they're giving a reprieve to the non-existent souls that do not inhabit Baker and Howland Islands, located in UTC -12.

Yep. Just checked for myself.

Based on some reports on youtube we lost the servers at 12:45 or 1:05 pm EDT (UTC -5). I'm starting to feel withdrawal.

So who's up for a Microsoft Hearts LAN Party? :P
