These Drivers Be Willin'

Ah, the classic "one person wearing all the hats" syndrome. This is what happens when management says "we're streamlining IT operations" but really means "we fired everyone except you." The Squidward multiverse perfectly captures that moment when you're simultaneously fixing Karen's printer, fending off ransomware, resetting the CEO's password for the 17th time this month, and trying to figure out why Microsoft decided to move everything in the admin center again . Pro tip: When asked how long something will take, multiply your estimate by 5 and add "depending on how many password resets interrupt me." Works every time.

Microsoft: "Here's a perfectly good built-in RAR extractor in Windows 11!" Developers: "I've been using WinRAR since dial-up internet and I will continue using it until the heat death of the universe, thank you very much." The eternal trial version that never expires is basically family at this point. Sure, the built-in option is right there, but abandoning WinRAR would feel like betrayal. It's like still using that one IDE with 47 plugins when a better one exists—some relationships transcend logic.

The dark satisfaction of Windows developers inserting carriage return line feed (CRLF) into every merged file is perfectly captured here. While Unix-based systems use just LF (\n) for line endings, Windows insists on CRLF (\r\n) and will fight to the death for those extra bytes. Nothing like breaking git diffs and causing merge conflicts across operating systems because Windows decided in 1981 that mimicking typewriters was the future of computing. The smug expression says it all - "Yes, I've ruined your clean line endings, and I'd do it again."

The developer's journey from simple text editor to fancy IDE is a lie. We all start with dreams of VS Code, Atom, or Emacs, but when the server's burning at 3AM, there you are - crawling back to Notepad++ like it's an ex you swore you'd never text again. The fancy IDEs with their intellisense and plugins are just a phase. Notepad++ is waiting at the finish line with that smug little gecko mascot saying "I told you so." Some relationships just can't be escaped.

Content hey can i uninstall edge NOOO!!! YOUR SYSTEM WILL BREAK im going to uninstall the bootloader go ahead lol

OneDrive has this delightful habit of silently taking over your entire file system like some kind of digital coup. One day you're just trying to save a file to your Desktop, and suddenly you realize it's not actually on your Desktop—it's in the cloud, syncing to OneDrive, whether you asked for it or not. Microsoft really said "local storage? never heard of her" and just started redirecting your Documents, Desktop, and Pictures folders without so much as a courtesy email. The best part is when you're on a train with no internet and can't access your own files because they're "Files On-Demand" now. Thanks, I really needed my tax documents to be unavailable during my audit. Nothing says "seamless user experience" like your C drive becoming a glorified shortcut to someone else's server.
