@amiya_rbehera #billgates is back to his old tricks again. I wonder what got him so riled up recently? Was he losing money and/or donors? That's the only thing that keeps his clock ticking.

Major Controversies Surrounding Bill Gates: A Detailed Timeline - Popular Timelines
Uncover the biggest controversies surrounding Bill Gates and the impact on reputation and legacy. Bill Gates, an American businessman and philanthropist, revolutionized personal computing as co-founder of Microsoft in 1975 alongside Paul Allen. Microsoft's IPO in 1986 catapulted Gates to billionaire status by 1987, becoming the world's youngest at the time. He dominated Forbes' wealthiest person list for 18 years between 1995 and 2017, including a 13-year consecutive reign. Gates became the first centibillionaire in 1999. As of May 2025, his net worth stands at $115.1 billion, ranking him as the world's thirteenth-richest individual.

PawlickerPSA: If you have a system with Windows 95/98 and it has the Windows Update folder (C:\Program Files or A:\Program Files on the PC-98), ESPECIALLY if it is not in the English language, please back these up as the Windows Update Restored project is seeking these (share them to MSFN or the DIscord)
This PC-98 I got from YAJ had catalog files for IE5.5 + Windows 95 for WU V3 that are going to be added soon to allow updates to work again.
