In case you've ever wondered why the Windows control panel was so awful... (lemmy.world)

Which control panel? There's like 20 of them and a new worse one gets added every other year.

Honestly, the REAL control panel that was default in 7 is great and I wish they hadn't spent the last decade+ trying to cover it up with baby-game aero menus.

As for programming for it, yeah no luck. Microsoft can't even be bothered to document their fucking ASP dot net formdata, much less their actual OS menu system.
