It's disappointing that the fix is so easy to perform and yet it'll almost certainly keep a lot of infrastructure down for hours because a majority of people seem too scared to try to fix anything on their own machine (or aren't trusted to so they can't even if they know how)

The software is so bloated and sluggish on mine
I really wish software developers were actually allowed to ship decent firmware for stuff rather than just running a gigantic bloated os to effectively just decode and display video
Oooh that's a handy feature I didn't know about
Maybe it's secretly bunnies all the way down
I'll open up my computer to see if any have snuck in and report back
Wait until you try to do it using an FPGA
Or even better just using a bunch of gates and hard wiring it in.
Learning how to do it from scratch makes me more amazed we got to the point we have with computing hardware
That is unfortunate but also leads me to a different question
Why do people like windows server? I've had to use it a couple of times for work and although it's certainly better than just using the desktop windows it's so heavy compared to running something like Debian
In our case, the fact we were using windows server actually made it a worse experience for customers aswell because the hardware was not up to it (because budget constraints) so it just chugged and slowed down everything making it a terrible experience for everyone involved (not to mention how often it'd have to be rebooted because a service wouldn't restart)
