Ahh Windows.

Why can't it just run my programs. Why does it insist on being my friend, my 
buddy, talking to me with the personification language... halfassed updates, 
hidden tasks, bloatware, gigabytes of crap that cannot be disabled or deleted 
and a convoluted solution to DLL hell.

But... it did give me a career for many years, a valuable skillset in being 
able to land even the most basic tech job "anywhere". That skillset put food 
on the table and supported myself and my Mac-loving kid comfortably. Not rich 
with a big house in the suburbs but not poor or paycheck-to-paycheck.

I know its never too late to jump on the Linux path and of course there are
friends and MANY Sysops here and on Fido with good careers, but for me there 
are certain aspects to my career which "require" Windows... Teams and Office 
specifically, along with supporting Activve directory and Exchange.

I guess it would just be nice if Windows just went back to being a basic OS
again that just runs my freaking programs and doesn't try to be my friend.

I am really not happy with the direction Microsoft is going especially with 
this AI nonsense.

End of rant.
