Comparing one of the worst disasters in NASA history to Micro$lop bugs is a bit silly, no?
i saw the Challenger shuttle explode in person… my elementary school used to have a recess to watch the shuttles every time they launched.
however, the idea of Windows in space is terrifying.
Why would I need to watch a vast nothingness? Space windows scare me.
So is comparing a Microsoft bug to the highlight of the Apollo project and conveniently ignoring all the setbacks that both led up to and followed it.
I don't mind bashing Microsoft where warranted, but this just feels like cherry picking from a long list of technical and procedural failures.
It's a meme posted to a shitposting community lol
