This is one of the things I like about Linux. It does what you fucking tell it to. Sure, it may throw errors from time to time, but they're usually all your fault in one way or another. You fucked up a config file or something. Not the operating system trying to """protect""" you from yourself.

What was I doing? Well, okay, I may have been trying to crack it, since I'm running an unlicensed version of Win10 Enterprise (shh!), but still. "Action blocked." "File quarantined." Even completely removing the file from my computer and telling me to reboot to get rid of it. All despite me constantly telling it to shut up and get out of my way. God. Fucking. Damn it.

I was back on Windows recently, and was reminded of why I hate it: it has a very antagonistic attitude. Try as I might, I was constantly met with Windows Defender going "Stop right there!" It was not a pleasant experience

Linux hot take 

Modern Adwaita is better, but I still find the light version of the theme kinda ugly. The dark version is alright, though. I could certainly use it if I had to.

Linux hot(?) take 

The Adwaita theme and general ugliness of GNOME 3 is what put me off from using it for such a long time. Like, I was around when GNOME 3 first dropped, and gods was it ugly. I was very glad to hear the Linux Mint team announce MATE.

Yeah, sure, it was also a different design paradigm, but that didn't stop me from liking Windows 8 (which I bought when it first released, after having used all the previews). It was mostly how ugly it was.

This post brought to you by my grammar antifa T-shirt and the half-assed thoughts of "gramtifa" I was having whilst taking it off just a second ago
