next video: what happens if you expose yourself to a Microsoft employee
-
"the operational system is older than I am" I feel so old. I got the physical version upon launch
-
Microsoft: We've got problems. They hate windows 11 so much they're trying to downgrade to 98.
-
Up next: Exposing an abacus to the internet in 2024.

"This operating system is older than I am"... and suddenly I just felt a whole lot older than I already felt
-
I remember in college connecting unpatched version of xp to the internet for the first time and got what felt like hundreds of malware in minutes. This was in the 00’s.

I have a dedicated Windows 98 PC that I use for retro games, software, and I connect it to the internet from time to time, mostly to do retro web browsing via the internet archive. Never had any problems. It can't even connect to most modern sites (and probably vise-versa) because it's so outdated. It's probably like you said, security by obscurity. Anyone looking to hack computers doesn't really have a reason to target Win9x anymore.

You forgot to imitate those dial up modem beeps verbally
-
I'm actually quite interested in how 2000 SP4 vs XP RTM vs fully updated XP would end up, if there were any patches that actually made a difference in the long run
-
Weird to think I used to install games on DOS 5.0 and 98 seemed like a huge improvement over Win 95. And this man was not even born when 98 was out. I fele ancient.

'the wired' lain jumpscare

Maybe the hackers were the friends we made along the way
-
SE = Second Edition and not Server Edition ;)
-
"...but this operating system is older then I am." yeah just hit me right in the old age why dont ya....
-
9x is safer than NT these days
-
I get the message, we should all switch to windows 98 to stay safe on the internet.
-
Takes me back to the good old days. For a while with Windows 2000/XP there was the sasser worm, like you would expose any PC running Windows 2000 to the internet and it was a matter of minutes until lsass.exe was exploited.
