Discovering that most of my students never experienced Windows ME is probably the thing that has made me feel oldest

@mjg59 I didn't either, I went straight from Windows 95 to Windows XP. My hardware replacement cycle was never the faster

@mjg59 none of my students knew what heartbleed was. They were 12 when it happened.. I wanted to talk about it as a "relatable, recent example", but apparently I'm too old for that.👴

@mjg59ME was pretty terrible. Those sketchy RAM cleaning utilities actually helped it not crash from its many, many memory leaks

@mjg59 yes, obviously your students would've been running Windows Zoomer Edition, not Windows Millennial Edition
