      Apple errors be all like

      “Operation couldn’t be completed (com.apple.mobilephone error 1035)”

      What am I supposed to do with this?

      Linux error be all like

      “System program problem detected. Do you want to report it?”

      Who am I reporting this to, Linus himself? He’s just going to yell at me.

      This stuff isn’t intentional. It’s just that MS is really bad at handling errors. So they just gave up and put a generic message.

        They intentionally choose to handle errors poorly.

        Just like they intentionally choose to handle updates poorly, DON’T YOU WANT TO REBOOT FOR THE FIFTHEENTH FUCKING TIME AND LOSE YOUR SESSION WITH 29 PROGRAMS OPEN ACROSS 8 DESKTOPS WHILE RUNNING A RENDERING PROCESS?

        Meanwhile, Linux: why yes, I’ll update the kernel in-place without rebooting and keep your 784 day uptime.
