Did I just do a #Markdown conversion of Mark Russinovich’s seminal 1998 article on #WindowsNT (and by extension, all modern versions of #MicrosoftWindows)’ debt to #DEC’s #VMS #OperatingSystem? Just so I could have a decent copy apart from the dusty carried-over archived version at https://www.ITProToday.com/server-virtualization/windows-nt-and-vms-the-rest-of-the-story ?

Why yes, yes I did. Why not?

As a #Linux user myself I am not used to the limited hardware support of #MicrosoftWindows

Yesterday I failed to help a coworker installing an older #Canon #scanner. Canon’s drivers were only for Windows XP and last updated long before the end of XP. Today’s Windows can’t do anything with the scanner. Device Manager can barely tell there’s an unknown Canon device present.

With #Debian you just plug in the scanner and you’re done.

Als #Linux-Nutzer bin ich die schlechte Hardwareunterstützung von #MicrosoftWindows nicht gewöhnt

Gestern erfolglos versucht, einem Kollegen zu helfen einen älteren #Canon #Scanner zu installieren. Canon hat nur Treiber für Windows XP mit letztem Update lange vor dem Ende von XP. Aktuelles Windows kann nichts damit anfangen. Der Gerätemanager erkennt gerade so, dass da ein unbekanntes Gerät von Canon ist

Unter #Debian steckt man einfach an und los geht’s.

The quality of software we've come to know and love from #Microsoft
I'd also like to add that I didn't install this, it just appeared on the machine. (A machine which is joined to Active Directory and shouldn't be doing stuff like this by default!). ARGH.

When it it become acceptable that we are not in control of our own computers?
