Totally agree. Their UI seems to be made only with ease of use of the most common case in mind, not spearing a single thought for power users. My preferred example is getting WLAN details before connecting. No way to do this with Win10s UI.

Not having a proper power supply is my only pi related regret. Thing would freeze every once in a while. That since stopped happening, and the only change in-between (beside updates) was the initial used charger dying.
