Linux is better.
They don’t own a printer then. Or any IOT device. Luckily, the same goes for me.
“They made fun of my router settings!” sobs
Removing the word “windows” in the last frame and also “your dad installs it for your dumb mom” to “your parents install a server. Maybe your mom does it or your dad does it. Maybe you can also help!”
Teaching “children” that technical tasks are for dady to do is so cringe.
Those two little changes and it becomes a readable story.
Yeah it seems to be from the early 2010s, some of the wording would probably be different if it was made today
I agree the language should be adjusted but it doesn’t say or even imply the mom is dumb, that’s a little bit of a stretch.
A children’s book sponsored by Microsoft… No
I thought this was just an elaborate shitpost. that’s so unfortunate.
they had me until
windows home server
They had me u til “your dad installs it”
It’s clearly the old Microsoft. Current Microsoft would be “Microsoft windows azure home server 365 copilot+Server cloud” (yes it says server twice)
Yes, but current MS Azure+buzzwerds actually works.
WHS was as very, very bad layer on top of NTFS.
Yeah. I justo wanted to make a joke. Srry
Haha, this book keep popping back up.
But you have a Daddy and Mommy who love you!
And, a Windows Home Server! Does that make you happy?
They had me until windows
It’s what turns it from a children’s book into a horror story
Indoctrination.
It’s on the very first page, opposite to the office server page, and they acknowledge the Author does not exist and that it’s basically an ad for Windows server.
Imagine growing up with a Windows home server… ugh
Wow, seriously who tf uses Windows home server?
In 2008? More than you’d think.
Sometimes I forget it’s been that long ago. -_-
Im guessing though. I remember seeing it on 4chan as a teenager so thats between 2006 and 2010 or aomething :p
Your guess is correct. It should be 2007 or so. :)
True, but this book is the best thing Microsoft has made.
I won’t stand for this PowerShell superhero comic erasure.
THE CLOUD — MORE MAGNIFICENT UP CLOSE THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED FROM AFAR…
IN DATACENTROPOLIS, WE DREAMED OF ATTAINING SAFE PASSAGE TO THE UTOPIA.
It was perfect until that second to last page
Damn, I thought you were joking
Why does daddy spend more time with the server than with mommy?
It’s a Windows home server, how else is he going too keep it up.
The home server never cheated on him and had a fling with windows
I have a friend that insists on using windows server. He is mentally ill
Had*
You shouldn’t abandon friends just because they have a mental problem.
At first I didn’t noticed the 2nd image, and started wondering what kind of children book this is :P
Plenty of age appropriate “birds and bees” books out there, this is a “packets and pings” one.
Ping is ICMP
Big people have a server at the “office”.
The office is a boring place where big people go and do boring things.
Offices are why big people get grumpy, and say bad words.
But guess what?
Some servers aren’t boring.
They don’t go in offices…they go in houses!
Maybe in your house!
How does it get there?
When a mommy and a daddy love each other very much,
the daddy wants to give the mommy a special gift.Not sure if serious (Fry meme)
I mean, I make fun of my home server all the time - its 2 old computers screwed to a wall.
I knew someone who threw away a laptop because the screen broke.
They see junk
I see a new home server with built in ups, just rip off the screen.
The “built-in UPS” is gonna degrade real quick, based on my experience
