MemberThese cartoons always make me feel stupid, since I'm never really sure how to interpret them.

MemberHe owns you, Windows is broken and it doesn't matter cause he f**king owns you. At least, that's what I got from this picture

MemberUhhh...
This is completely wrong. Bill Gates retired from the whole Microsoft thing in 2008. And he did more than just rule the world, he also gave to the community with 'pirates' that gave out free games and stuff. :D While not appearing to be doing so, you don't see them trying too hard to go against piracy prior to Windows 7, do you? If they are they are failing hard.
But seriously, people want to beat on Bill Gates because he's the one that created Vista or something, to be honest, I had no problems with Vista. If you like Mac, that's fine, just don't take it out on a system you don't know how to work o3o Or a computer, in general.

Blocked1. This was done by an ex-Amiga fanboy, who is now probably an Apple/Linux worshipper
2. This looks nothing like Bill Gates
3. Bill Gates jokes are irrelevant
4. I don't know if it's Eric's artsyle or Gimp's technical limitations but this pic looks as if it was done 15 years ago

MemberI don't think you should be calling people retarded when you can't even spell the word correctly.

BlockedEasy interpretation: Bill Gates conquered the global economy by standing upon Windows.

MemberI don't understand why this image is considered "controversial", even for the time. If you had your ear to the problems going on in the tech industry and injustice, you will know it's telling the truth. Microsoft really is so rich and powerful AND extremely corrupt, even before this image. Nowadays, not only are they developing AI and forcing it on their users now, they are actively mass firing employees form their company and subsidiaries and replacing them with AI. Their biggest proponents are late stage capitalists without morals.
