On: Software may be getting worse, but it used to be horrible

[renegade-otter]

Sure, but last year I had to reinstall Windows because they did not bother to test USB input devices on their new "recovery" feature: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/windows11/th...

All it had to do was run Check Disk, but it kept going in a loop every 30 minutes checking their "AI" for solutions, finding none. There was no way to get out of it.

I am sorry, but even in the worst days of Windows, this would have been a huge deal. This was the last straw so I installed Mint to play games.
