First of all, the article mocks Windows, not military personnel. Score
one for your own ignorance and lack of understanding. Secondly, who
gives a shit about what kind of systems Soviet subs really run? Do you
really believe that anyone reading that piece would take it literally?
Well hell, I guess you did. Kinda hard to take your post seriously when
it's based on a totally incorrect premise.
Third, if someday I choose to mock military personnel, dead or alive,
that's my choice. You have no say in my values.
