I had one (1) message in Discord deleted and proceeded to make a huge, huge mess about how it was a violation of free speech and how moderators are supposed to be spam janitors and nobody should have the right to tell me not to talk about school shootings

Well, it's Windows, so I imagine so.

When it came time to buy a laptop I had to go with an older model to avoid Vista... though really, my favorite windows version was 98SE.

but durr, checking driver versions was just asking for trouble.

JUST because it's Windows?

XP never had this kind of problem. Neither did the school's 2000s. It had to be Vista.

As in, all of a sudden, something not witty happens, and everything is limited to a mere 1/1,000,000 of processing time. The busy light stays, and only the mouse will do anything for about a minute.

XP does that, just not often. Try setting a process to Realtime priority, or even letting one at Normal go into a loop using 100% CPU. Save your work first.

Why would you voluntarilly do that though? It defeats XP's multitasking.

In the former case, because you're not using the computer for anything else and have it doing something that you want done ASAP. In the latter case, any poorly-designed program might just randomly do that.

Ah, but Dual Core! It takes two programs acting at 100% on each core to freeze one of those.

Myself, I'm going with the superior Server editions of Windows. Server customers don't put up with cheap crud. Notice the lack of Vista themes on Windows Longhorn/2008 Server.
