Those msn searches 🤣
Look how they massacred my boy…
I love the attention to detail, putting the upsell “30days of msn premium” between the “star” and “all programs” buttons beautiful.
You could substantially de-uglify XP with a different theme, but, damn…that ugly
Which one, black or silver?
Homestead
Don’t care what anybody says about how much they loved XP that shit was always ugly.
Functional though, you could just open your start menu and find what you wanted immediately instead of typing to search for it like I have been doing for the last 5-10 years
I had a cool grey and orange theme it was sexy, looked like a pack of Marlboro Black
I preferred Yahoo Messenger to Windows solely due to the ROTFLMAO emoji… it kicked ass. Made me giggle every time I used it.
You missed out on hella custom emoticons. Had hundreds of "lol"s
Edit: and nudges lol
Did it kick the llama’s ass?
Yes!!!
It’s fantastic.
XP
Some Microsoft exec somewhere: “WRITE THAT DOWN”
They will distribute this image and say: “See? It has always been this way…”
What’s it called when you backport modern features to retro systems like this mockup? I swear there’s a word for this…
I think you’re looking for “anachronism”: A thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists.
Retroshittification
Backtrackarrhea
Backport-a-potty
oh my god brilliant
Demake?
I’d call it techlapse
Ok…someone do this but in an Atari 2600 theme. I wanna see what loot boxes and modern gaming shit would look in 160x192 128 color resolution.
It would be awesome if there was a community focused on that
Be the change you wish to see in the world
Thanks!
I hate it.
The little shield next to the turn off computer icon implying it’ll update it without asking is a nice touch
Make thyself scarce, cur, less ye see the back of my hand.
tihi
but it’s also a very good visualization what windows user got slow boiled into
Is there an Easter egg or is this just nostalgia?
Start menu looks like Win10/11 with ads, suggestions and news. This is not how XP used looked like
It’s so well done I image that everyone who was too young to use XP doesn’t realize this is satire.
Instance blocking doesn’t block comments?
That is correct. Your instance needs to defederate from the other instance to also block comments/users.
User-based instance blocking is actually just hiding posts from that instance. It does not hide or block comments made from users of that instance on posts that are not coming from that instance.
Well TIL I learned
