If Microsoft made the F18

Posted on 08/04/2023 9:27:36 AM PDT by rey

Decades ago, someone had done a satirical piece I’m trying to find on, what if MicroSoft had built the F18?

It had things about how you would have to shutdown and restart the plane a couple of times a day and you wouldn’t question that and if you attempted to deploy the ejection seat you would get a message reading, “Are you sure you want to deploy ejection seat?” Stuff like that.

Can anyone supply a link to this satirical piece or supply the list?

Thanks.

When will people realize that they are driving several computers, with an automobile attached?

Well, the one in my car radio already went from being an asset to being a liability.

It gets more curious with EVs...

When will EV drivers realize that, they're riding on a battery with 4 wheels and a bunch of computers managing that battery on wheels.

If Microsoft made the F18 it would have to be upgraded every four years.
