Oh hey Michael, how's it going? Yeah, Microsoft has a lot of amazing initiatives to virtualize, emulate, and wrap interfaces around everything in the universe, which is a smart idea long-term, but they never seem to get to the phase of actually optimizing it. Someday, when we convert our entire race into pure energy, we will be able to seamlessly shift between between different levels of indirection in our matrix-like universe, but for now I'm having a lot of trouble just trying to open a single application in the first 4 minutes of booting up a Windows machine. It never used to be so bad, but every year it just keeps getting worse.
