Mathwiz Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Interesting. Unfortunately I don't see a specific answer to who owned the x.com domain, which (I assume) wasn't a big thing before Musk decided to rebrand Twitter as X (leading me to refer to the two domains collectively as Xitter.com). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 The "comment" didn't look that "bad" to me. A "rib poke" only escalates if the owner of the rib "reacts impulsively" instead of "acting consciously". The "comment" was nothing more than a "rib poke". To me, it looked more like a *TEST* - some sort of "watch this, I'll post this and then I'll monitor MSFN, now I will know what members there also read here".

"The comment" looks exactly how this poor soul generally thinks, hates and writes comments about all MSFN related. It never ceases to amaze me what certain intellectual low-flyers are allowed to write there. Apart from that, the ignorant has no idea about Windows XP. And then it also wants to be a developer ... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no clue of this poor soul's thinking - past, present, or future. I do know that even here at MSFN, we have "rib pokers" so yeah, one has to learn to see them as such and IGNORE THEM.

This guy likes to write disparagingly, especially when it comes to MSFN, old operating systems and New Moon. Rudeness and negativity are the pillars of its character. Guys like this trollbat were the reason why I gave up my account in the PM forum and never posted there again. Good decision.

AstroSkipper Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) And for those over there who don't want to believe it and to be on-topic again, New Moon 28 is still my daily browser. It's blazingly fast on my old hardware, not on modern, bloated sites, of course. But on MSFN, for example, this browser is 'umpteen times faster than e.g. Thorium. And I am a very experienced Windows XP user. I know all the essentials and much more about this operating system after more than 20 years. I have never had a serious compromise of my system. Everything that is said about the dangers of using Windows XP today and in the past is largely based on ignorance and propaganda. But there are people who believe everything they are told. And if you look around the world, things are getting worse and worse despite a supposedly higher standard of education than before.

Sampei.Nihira Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) I was banned from the Pale Moon forum (decision made by MoonChild) since I provided the OAuth2 code to be entered in MailNews to Roytam. I also don't remember if Tobin had written to me that I would be one of the MSFN hacks (obviously false) also because he had read among other things about my cleaning rules (MailNews,New Moon.....) in CCleaner. Of course this was a century ago..... Edited May 20 by Sampei.Nihira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always very interesting what is quoted from a post, even though it was more of a minor matter. The actual content tends to be ignored and seems to be of less interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
