Crazy that you managed to snap one in their natural habitat.
I heard they are exceptionally rare these days.

But no, that peach has been thoroughly thawed.

It took quite some liberty with the "pixels" in the eyes. πŸ˜…

lol, is that this "small government" and the oh so free market that we keep hearing so much about?

Love the image of wheeds just popping up all over your garden where you don't want them.
It's a great metaphor for the "HEY, TRY THIS NEW THING!" shit microsoft pulls.

Additionally much software (and hardware even more) primarely targets windows as a platform. The way printers mostly "just work"β„’ on Linux still amazes me, because printer vendors have all the incentives to make their stuff work for the most used platform, which sadly isn't Linux right now.

Don't worry, we need more of those too. <3

Then you'd have 0 dollars because they aren't dorks. They're nerds and we need more of them. Β―_ (ツ)_/Β―

Full disclosure: I ran manjaro as a daily driver for a while a few years back bad have been forced back on windows as well by company policy. So I'm not going to be the ultimate authority to answer your questions.
All I wanted to comment is that with iTunes and Office you have picked two pieces of software by two companies that have a very strong interest in not letting you migrate away from them. I tried to migrate my gf's password manager from the iCloud one to bitwarden and it's amazing the hoops they make you jump through to get at your data. So what you might be experiencing right now is a thing called "vendor lock", and I wish you the best of luck for finding a way out. ;)

Love the Cave Johnson quote in the readme that just preempts any of those pesky "why" questions.

Yeah, I remember the first time I saw the :// thing I felt myself having a little design-gasm.
This doesn't touch the same spot for me...
