just wrapped up unfucking a #proxmox #windows server guest that had imported disks from #vmware. it was an arduous process that involved a ton of time with bcdedit/bcdboot. i also had to use dism to manually inject the #virtio drivers. ugh.

i really should document this and make it a blog post or something but i am so very exhausted. i need to do this again with another guest so maybe i'll write it all down then.

Microsoft Power Toys has changed since I last checked them out on Windows 95. A lot of these are turned on by default after installation, which...no.

I think this argument falls at the premise stage cos if you've bought a mac you're not short of money.

#Linux is a tool, #Windows is a #service, #macos is #luxury. I think that's pretty much the #facts of the matter.

Had to downgrade a laptop to #Windows 11 and every step of it hurt. ;__;
Of course it immediately did look up my location (based on ISP information I guess) to feed it to some integrated "features" without my permission. #Microsoft will never change.
