but the OS remains hostile against user choice.

That's just it. Most of us probably work on our computers – imagine if you were a carpenter and your tools actively fought you. It's about literal quality of life for me at this point.

    The worst part is that if Raymond Chen is to be believed (author of The Old New Thing, work(ed) for Microsoft) this is the complete antithesis of what their philosophy was supposed to be in the Windows 96/98 era, which was "let the user have full control over how they want to use their computer."

    That shit went right out the window, didn't it?
