minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoit was bullshit when they ended support for XP, and now I have to find alternatives on 7!!? fuck you Mozilla, you just lost a customer!

minus-squarePsythik@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·24 days agoCalm down, XP was 13 years old when it was retired. It lived a long, happy life. And Windows 7 was released seventeen years ago. Using either OS in 2026 is extremely dangerous and stupid. Please switch to Linux.
minus-squarelow@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoif you’re serious pls update your shit it’s time to move on big bro
minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoI run all my systems on XP and 7. I don’t like all this techno AI bullshit. my whole work laptop is from 2002 and runs XP just fine!
minus-squarelow@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoDude you are my worst nightmare as a security person modern hacking techniques are so unbelievably far ahead of XP, just go to Win10/Linux at least
minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agoew gross! isn’t linix one of those things hackers use? besides, Win10 got rid of my computer and hid control panel. it’s a garbage OS that can’t even run DOS properly. XP sp2 is peak performance!
minus-squarelow@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·23 days agoHackers do use Linux, but only Kali Linux. And Tor browser. Windows 10 is more secure because they added security (to stop the hackers). And epic OneDrive login so all your files can sink.
minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·23 days agoI don’t need onedrive, I have My Briefcase. I also have a really secure password on my XP install so no hackers can get in.
minus-squarelow@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·23 days agoUmmmm. Buddy. Microsoft can’t train Copilot from a briefcase, you’re not being very community-oriented. And hackers can type really fast so they can guess your password even if it’s something complicated like GoPanthers123!
minus-squarecanthangmightstain@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·24 days agolol how much have you been paying them?
minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·24 days agoat least $25 a month for the past year! they won’t get another dime from me, that’s for sure.
