So, you used to work at Microsoft? Yep sure. I used to come up with names for all the special folders. The special folder names in Windows? Yes. "Program Files", is that one of yours? Sure is. I thought, "This is where we'll put the programs. On the file system. And since they're gonna be made out of files, I'll stick the word "Files" on the end. With a space in the middle. People are going to be typing this all the time, so they'll want it to be as long and descriptive as possible." And what about System32 is that yours? Yep. I thought, "these files are 32 bit files. So I'll put them here." And that was pretty successful? Yes. I did such a good job naming it System32, that nowadays it contains all the 64 bit files as well. Then what happens to the 32 bit version of the 64 bit files. Where do they go? Well they can't go in System32, because on a 64 bit machine, System32 is where the 64 bit files go. So if we're running a 32 bit executable we lie to the executable and tell it that "System32" points at another folder, called SysWOW64 and that's where we stick the 32 bit files. Why is there a 'WOW' in the middle of the name? I was typing System64 and half way through I just thought: "WOW, nature is beautiful!" And the 32 bit files, they go in SysWOW64, since the 64 bit files are in System32? Yep. (Laughing) Oh I took a lot of meth that day, my friend.

I like how windows still has a 32 bit version, a 64 bit version, regular, pro, European edition, China edition, poors edition, poors European edition, and bow with windows 10, a version for your raspberry pi based fire alarm (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

microsoft is so bad that Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson issued his findings of fact on November 5, 1999, which stated that Microsoft's dominance of the x86-based personal computer operating systems market constituted a monopoly, and that Microsoft had taken actions to crush threats to that monopoly, including Apple, Java, Netscape, Lotus Notes, RealNetworks, Linux, and others.[15] Judgment was split in two parts. On April 3, 2000, he issued his conclusions of law, according to which Microsoft had committed monopolization, attempted monopolization, and tying in violation of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. Microsoft immediately appealed the decision.[16]

Linux will take over the desktop. Unfortunately no one will be using desktops by that point. Linux will then take 5 years to figure out why no one cares it finally took over the desktop.

It is a part of normal human life. In fact, it's so absolutely normal and mundane that it is completely baffling to me why some people in this forum cannot go 5 minutes without reminding everyone that actually yes believe it or not there is someone on the planet willing to sleep with them.
