Having an interesting discussion with [livejournal.com profile] jer832 today, we figured out why in Moffat's era of Doctor Who the universe is so often rebooted, and parts of it are getting wiped away or it freezes and likes to start repeating itself....

THE UNIVERSE RUNS ON WINDOWS VISTA!!!!

If we're lucky he'll take it back to Windows XP or upgrade to W7. Actually given they have time travel, maybe they can upgrade to W8?

Does it also explain Moffat's behavior? XD

I'm not sure anything can explain that....

Fogs, you need a snort warning here.... :D

Yes, that does explain quite a lot. I'd recommend against Windows 8, though. Doesn't Microsoft have a trend of every other major OS release sucking? (Windows ME, I am looking at you.)

I'm terribly sorry to have not been a part of the discussion, but given my recent track record, it's probably just as well. ;)

Snort warning huh... Nah, I like to surprise people! :D

Hmm, you've got a point, they should probably stick to W7, or maybe skip to whatever is going to follow 8? Should be due for a complete overhaul by then right?

Some conversations are just weird!

Surprise is good.

I do wonder what they're going to do next, but shudder to think what their definition of "complete overhaul" will be. "Oh, look, we haven't created a security hole here yet!" "Look, this is still working, let's break it!"

Many conversations are weird, but at least you didn't get crackfic plot out of that one, right?

Sounds like Windos programmers completely! 'How many more features that people don't need can we squeeze in?' 'That's not working, oh don't worry, we can just stick something shiny in instead'

If I get any more crackfic ideas I'm coming after you :P
