    They'll probably switch naming schemes by that point and instead of calling it "Windows 12," for some weak bullshit reason such as "to avoid third-party legacy shitware mis-identifying your home PC's OS as a Server 2012 because the OS name string has a '12' in it," they'll name it Windows 2026.

      Before you use Windows 2026 you must enter your authentication code manually. Copy and paste is disabled. You type Windows 2026ERE5LKL45O29LL54676L88MS5MKJJASDFK34009ASFKDF and you click "enter".

      And then Microsoft bricks your computer because you typed "0" instead of "O".

          I've spent hours trying to get Windows Update to, well, update. All that happens is I get a variety of errors. And - of course - there's no way to download the fucking shit manually. I have to navigate through Windows and click buttons over and over and hope that this time it actually works. I am so fucking tired of doing this. I'm a man. I'm not a trained organ grinder monkey performing for Microshit.

          The next time I buy a desktop - it'll be an Apple or a Unix distro. I am so tired of this shit.
