Windows doesn’t generally break things? Weird, I wonder why I’ve been having to tour my clients’ homes and having to either circumvent their arbitrary 11 requirements or install a pirated version of 10 LTSC. Must be a fluke. Besides, Microsoft is following every tech company and trying to replace actual programmers with AI, so I’m sure they’ll never fuck anything up again.
And the instructions online for how to fix things are NEVER easier. What on earth? Troubleshooting Windows for the last 15 years has meant browsing a dozen forum posts with your exact issue and getting nothing but a bunch of script-following helpdesk people taking 3 paragraphs to ultimately tell you to restart your computer. And now, on top of all that garbage, you have to sort past a bunch of generated garbage articles. Better hope someone posted your problem on Reddit and didn’t get their post deleted for whatever reason cuz there’s no way to find anything useful otherwise

It’s not broken though, if it doesn’t work by design, which is the case for Win 11‘s system requirements.
Doesn’t mean it’s good design but it’s not technically broken.
Intentionality has nothing to do with whether something is broken or not. If I take a brick to a window, is that just bad design?
Their computers stopped getting security updates for no good reason. They broke it. I have to go in and fix it.
