Windows 10 Fucking Sucks!

FreeBSD is my main operation system and I do 95 percent of what I need or want to do in that. FreeBSD for 10+ years has been solid as a rock for me.

About 2 years ago I built a new computer. The q6600 system I’d built a 10 years prior was showing its age. I was starting to have random glitches that may or may not have been related to the motherboard but Ryzen looked good and for a good price so I figured it’s time to rebuild.

The main problem with that is I would not be able to use my old Windows XP on it. It’s not often I need windows but when I do i need it now. I figured I’d get windows 10. Holy shit have they gone out of their way to dumb it down and hide or remove things.

Really? Getting rid of menus was a good idea on a computer? I get why they’d do it on a tablet but I’m not using a fucking tablet and if I was it certainly wouldn’t run windows. To me menus with a text representation of what they do just make sense instead of trying to guess what an icon means. Maybe that has to do with my vision impairment.

The new start menu is terrible too. There’s just so much wasted space and too much scrolling to find programs. I guess it’s OK if your using a touch screen but I am not.
