Politics? In MY kernels?
My friends, I need to share Microsoft’s latest stroke of genius with you.
Inside Microsoft’s new Driver Quality Rating system.
Oh fucking hell. As if Windows didn’t suck enough as it stood, Microsoft is now introducing political bullshit into the fucking kernel by allowing users to ‘rate’ device drivers and revoking a driver’s certifications based on this. Why? Why? WHY?
I just hope that the certification revocation is not done by an automagic system. Otherwise, a few assholes mog together a huge botnet, submit crap crash reports to Microsoft, and get the iPod’s driver revoked. Boom, an instant million Windows lusers whining in my ear about ‘it just breaking’.
And this time, it did ‘just break’. ARGH.
This makes me glad I dropped that Windows shit years ago.
