    Every time I touch a Windows computer, after 5 minutes, me hacking on the keyboard: “Why 🔨 Can’t 🔨 I 🔨 Just 🔨 Do 🔨 This 🔨!!!”

    Then I have to explain to my coworkers (where else would I touch a Windows computer) that I’m actually a very leet hacker, just on a different OS 😳

      I’ve pretty much stopped using windows 20 years ago - besides needing to boot it up to have some weird configuration program (looking at you Datalogic!)
      I’m still “the computer guy” in my family and everyone comes to me with their Windows boxes or iOS phones/tablets, but I have absolutely no clue what I’m doing there…
      I’m always astonished how much more shit Windows got in those years.
      Even assigning a drive letter (which is already a stupid way to extend storage, compared with just mount points) isn’t that easily set anymore.
      At least it took me 20-30mins to find the option.
      Changing IP addresses also seems to be highly technical and must be hidden.

      Don’t know what they are going for. You can make stuff easily useable, but still give options to change the defaults.
