You’re a prescriptivist then I take it.

That’s your point though, isn’t it?

The “people” and the “territory” are not the same thing, but both words “country” and “nation” are used more or less interchangeably to apply to either.

Yes but my point is that he’s not using the wrong word.

Edit: also Kurdistan exists

Both words refer to both concepts.

country

1. A nation or state.
2. The territory of a nation or state; land.
3. The people of a nation or state; populace.

nation

1. A relatively large group of people organized under a single, usually independent government; a country.
2. The territory occupied by such a group of people.
3. The government of a sovereign state.

That makes it worse! Clearly they did not get it right the first time around, or there wouldn’t be any reason to tweak and replace it all constantly.

Ah yes. Perfection:

Or maybe:

No? maybe this.

Edit I missed windows XP

No shakeups at all, it’s like a rock.

Perfectly reliable and unchanged from the beginning.

Edit since folks choose to distinguish “Settings” from “Control Panel” as if that doesn’t make the point even stronger. I’ll admit that it’s been pretty consistent since Windows 7. Still very different than the first iteration.

I think it’s more a reference to your username than actual criticism.

Yup. More power leads to lower enforcement, less training and education, and more acceptance of “minor failings” like this one.

“Prejudiced” is the word you are looking for.

Most real floppy drives are on their own port. They show up as /dev/fd0

It’s hidden by default but it should be there in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp for “all users” and %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup separately for each user.

XP-7 had this right with a folder in the start menu for startup items, just drag a file or shortcut there and it runs on startup.

It’s the same in 10. This is actually one thing I find obnoxious in Linux, even as a user for 25+ years… menu “shortcuts” aka .desktop files are harder to make and poorly documented.

Also a testament to how much of a benefit it is when the vendors just get out of the way and don’t feel the need to add their own Special Sauce^TM to the drivers.

Depends. Do you have more money than Disney? If so, the odds are in your favor.

Scrape ‘em off, Jim!

Quest One Identity does.
