/v/Showerthoughts is a subverse for you to share all those thoughts, ideas, or philosophical questions that race through your head while in the shower.
"Showerthought" is a loose term that applies to any thought you might have while carrying out a routine task like showering, driving, or daydreaming.
Please be respectful of others' submissions. If you disagree, explain why in the comments. Downvoats are reserved for submissions you don't like or comments that do not add to the discussion, not opinions with which you disagree.
RULES
-
Please refrain from shower "observations;" we've heard them all before
-
Ideas for Voat features should be posted in /v/ideasforvoat, even if you think of them while in the shower
The spirit of this subverse's rules is to foster a community where dissent, free thought, and open discussion are tolerated, limited only to trolling, excessive abuse, site-breaking rules, or content that is better suited for another subverse. All moderation activity should operate within this spirit.

To be fair I have actually had it resolve the issue when something stupid has happened. But that has only happened a couple of times of memory serves.
The issue that I've got is that they keep putting these layers of obfuscation over everything. Which gets progressively worse with every new version of windows. So that even doing basic stuff like checking the subnet mask or the ip address becomes this massive PITA. It's like you have to spend more time finding out some magic number from the user for you to connect remotely into the computer than what it takes to fix the issue. And yes I know how to use Active Directory.

Honestly, I wouldn't doubt if they've done this from the beginning as a matter of policy. Maybe a way to discourage people from venturing beyond the garden? Or to make them feel helpless and subservient to their Microsoft overlords? I don't know.
