NTFS turns 30 years old today! I hear it's still in use by some crufty old legacy operating systems 😁

Happy 30th Birthday "New Technology" File System! Thanks for 30 years of demonstrating Linux superiority with a gap that widens with every new kernel release 👍

Stuff shouldn't include temporal or subjective aspects in their name like New Technology File System, Grand Unified Bootloader... that's all I got but you get the idea.
I'm jumping industries here, but Nintendo could not get that out of their system for a while. A game titled "New Super Mario Bros." came out in it's first first iteration in 2006. It did quite well, so they kept making sequels, the most recent titled "New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe". They also put out a couple game consoles with "New" at the beginning, if memory serves.
Nintendo DS => Nintendo 3DS => New Nintendo 3DS => New Nintendo 3DS XL
NT stands for "no toast". The guy who named it forgot his breakfast that morning.
When asked what NT stood for he lied and came up with "new technology" on the spot.
(And if you believe that I have a bridge to sell you.)
