Biggest problem I encounter is people failing to signal their exit

So I end up being C because I yield to a bunch of bozos who didn’t communicate they were’t going to come my way

Limits app installations to those on the Microsoft Store and also disables Terminal / Powershell.

Makes for a super simple tamper-proof system that is similar to a Chromebook but a little more versatile. It’s a good solution for users who are all-in on the Microsoft ecosystem - think those who live their lives in Edge, Word, Excel. The restrictions keep them out of hot water.

Those restrictions are obviously annoying to those who want to install regular x86_64 apps from an .exe / .msi file or use Powershell / Terminal / CMD.

The issues i get through linux come from my failure to understand it

I’d argue that’s true of any user’s experience with any OS, including what you just experienced with Windows.

Getting out of S mode is actually very trivial, certainly moreso than many of the changes one might be expected to make in Linux. There’s a certain type of user that “S Mode” is intended for. You’re not that user, and Linux is likely to be a negative experience for that user.

Linux has been ready for education for a long time! Most of the public high school machines I interacted with in the mid 2000s were linux based. There was a dedicated Mac lab for creative work.

There is no better archive utility than 7-Zip IMO

Just wish there was a MacOS version

Was a friend’s house recently when they ordered a case of beer.

It showed up 3 hours later. Delivery guy said “Sorry it took so long, I had to go home to charge my phone”
