I ' m an 18 YO still in high school and its a Catholic school too . I can ' t get a girlfriend because IDK how to talk to any of the girls who I sorta like and I ' m a nervous wreck . Plus I ' m nervous about how I look to them . Also college next year . So yeah , a lotta reasons <| sep |> Maybe next time . <| sep |> Ahah I remember too ! That was EventOnStart <| sep |> 1 The VSS snapshot system is nothing but hardlink dickery and breaks so often . Its method of quiescing certain applications like MSSQL is unreliable too , which is why MSSQL and Exchange often need dedicated backup software . I say this as an employee of a backup software vendor who has to wade knee deep in this shit for a paycheck . 2 Domain Controllers and everything about them are terrible . Microsoft Networks , by design have one system that acts as a single point of failure for the entire fucking LAN . DHCP , DNS , time , signonauthentication . all of it gets handled by the DC and all of it in ways that are both undocumented and incredibly hard to capture with anything but block level backups . Yes , you can have multiple DCs per domain but approximately fucking nobody outside the enterprise world actually does this , so when the DC crashes and they will crash sooner or later it ' s an instant crisis . 3 PowerShell takes longer to start up on equivalent hardware than my ricedtothegills configuration . That ' s the primary shell and CLI for the OS . It ' s also the only one in recent win 10 builds cmd is being slowly deprecated . That ' s not even getting into the assumptions from other shells that PowerShell breaks or the interactiveusehostile syntax , but there are entire articles written about PowerShell ' s idiocy . Oh , and get ready to spawn a lot of these behemoths because there ' s no equivalent to GNU Screen or tmux for multiplexing a single window into multiple independent shell sessions . 4 Microsoft spends billions on security improvements . # AND RENDERS IT ALL MOOT BY DOING SCROLLBARS AND FONT RENDERING IN THE FUCKING KERNEL Y helo thar attack vectors . 5 Because almost none of the configuration of the OS or applications is done in plain text , everything requires purposespecific tools for doing so , which are either obscure PowerShell cmdlets if you ' re lucky or clunky GUIs with no scriptability whatsoever .
