End of life Memes

Microsoft's idea of an upgrade path: swap your modern OS for a game from 1989. When Windows 10 support ends, they're not suggesting Linux or even Windows 11—they're recommending you time travel back to TempleOS. Because nothing says "cutting-edge security" like pixelated platforms and 8-bit sound effects. Honestly, this might be an improvement. At least Temple Run doesn't force updates while you're in the middle of a presentation. And the system requirements are so low, even that potato you call a development machine could handle it.

The Grim Reaper has already claimed Windows 7 and Windows 8, leaving bloody trails behind as it knocks on Windows 10's door. Microsoft's operating system lifecycle in one perfect image! The company's habit of killing off perfectly functional OS versions to force upgrades is like watching Death work through its corporate roadmap. Windows 7 users fought valiantly but ultimately succumbed, Windows 8 barely had time to be hated properly, and now Windows 10 users are nervously eyeing Windows 11 while Death comes knocking. The circle of software life continues—except it's less "circle" and more "forced march toward obsolescence."
