"And people should stop being so autistic about new versions of Windows operating system regarding its security, privacy and looks, its free ffs."
And you should stop being insulting towards those people as well as autistic people. Also using insults is not a way to cover your lack of arguments.
Windows's not free (Windows 10 is only available free for a limited period of time), and if you don't care about the privacy, security and look of your OS, that's great, but I don't know why you should force people to be as indifferent as you.
I do care about my privacy, the security of my OS and lastly about the look of it. I think that people who don't are reckless and misinformed and that people like you who don't and insult those who do are being stupid and unbearable...

"the fact that I know that you need to confirm the installation in order for it to progress only suggest to me that some people have no idea on how to use their computer and would gladly waste hours and/or days posting how disgusted they are instead of spending around 10 minutes only for finding the most logical solution and getting to know their operating system more."
You're being offensive and saying stupid things again. Windows is still barely doing what we told it to do but has an aggressive and frustrating way of urging us to update Windows deserves to be criticized. Using an OS shouldn't require a PHD, nor should it be complicated. You may use your computer while being tired, focused on other things than you OS. Thus any normal person would find annoying the fact of being obliged to go into the Windows's settings in order to find how to disable the frequent reminder for Windows 10 when you never asked for it, and even more annoying the fact that the buttons are frequently swapped so you end up clicking the "Install now" button when you wanted to click on the "Cancel" button which you thought was there because it was there before.

Concerning your second point, that's mostly wrong in my opinion: There's not only professional software. There's also games, general softwares... Windows also has its perks over Linux, including the fast boot, the Windows 8 UI (how come? you don't like it? )

@Shepard
You're right concerning Ubuntu, God I don't know why it is so praised and recommended for beginners. Although I would advise fedora. Unlike Ubuntu which has the worse ever made Desktop Environment since the ancient Greeks, fedora has a sparse and very good one and God far far far less bugs.

@Striker + @Shepard + @DiscoStu + @everyone fuck yeah
For the third point Striker, I simply don't agree with these people who praise Windows 10. It is for me a devolution. And that explains the fact I am reluctant to update Windows 8.
Let's be honest, I am not saying Windows 8 is a good OS, but it introduced what I think are genial and long awaited features: apps, and a new UI: a Start menu bigger than a thumbnail, buttons and options you can click without aiming at them for hours.
I perfectly know what I said is highly controversial, but I'll explain myself.
Apps: it's just necessary for an OS to have a unified place to look for harmless software you can install, uninstall and review easily. With the traditional system, all software are potentially harmful or not fully removable, and do not offer a cohesive experience (clicking an icon which opens an app taking all the screen is a cohesive experience I like). Now I think, as for linux, you should be able to chose the server from where you want to install apps.
Now, concerning the UI. I like it because I feel resting and home with it. I like the fact apps can only take 3 sizes and positions, it makes everything more simpler, the screen more easy to understand. I like the Internet Explorer 10 ergonomics. With everything hidden until you right click at one end of the screen. It helps so much to concentrate, and it makes me feel so much better. I like the fact the taskbar is hidden by default ( even though sometimes it doesn't want to reappear). I like the big buttons, the sparse and simple presentation of elements in apps and on the start menu. Call me clumsy, but on the classical UI, I feel like I need so much efforts to identify the button I want to click on and to click on it. Especially for the contextual menu. With Windows 8, its' far more easier with the 2 dimensional start menu.

Just to repeat myself, I don't like this OS, but I think it's the less worse Windows. There are a lot of flaws with it: obscure messages ("taking care of a few things"), duplicated options applications, lack of options with applications, the charm bar, the fact apps take ages to load and are unstable, the necessity to use a Microsoft account to use apps. I just think Windows should go further with Windows 8 and fix all those flaws.

So far I thought there were some implicit limits Microsoft wouldn't dare to cross. Looks like I was wrong.
I'm now excepting them to simply force us to do what they want without prompting or informing us.

That's partially right, but still, I can't take people who refuse to consider new alternatives simply because they don't feel it and are too bored to try. Of course, on the other hand, you have to give some reasons why you think this alternative would be better.

On my final first year project one person of my group who was quite experienced in computing refused to use any kind of Drive system, preferring uploading files to the facebook chat, because that's more tidy and easy to find, of course.

What? satchno is not a girl, is he?

Aha, Comatrix and his accent, I haven't forgotten yet!
His elevator is quite classy, I may peek in the rmf a little if I'm not too much pretentious! ^_^

I personally prefer to make as much design as possible. Otherwise I get lost when I have to resolve any unexpected problems or question like the need of a new class, or any kind of design change / addition.

@2muchvideogames Now that you mentioned it, I feel like my elevator system is quite too much complicated! But there's actually a reason for that. I made it so any new floor possibly added later do not interfere with the previous floors. In other words, it doesn't need to know what the other floors are and at which floor the elevator is, nor if the elevator is moving or not.

Ouch... I've never been asked to use Visual Paradigm to generate code template. Instead, since we're asked to provide a class design for each for our assignments, I use it on my own to generate class diagrams from my code instead!
It will deceive you, but Visual Paradigm is still the same, there's at least 3 rows of tabs for each panel, opening each another panel. I'm not sure it's a bad UI. You just have to know where are the options of interest for you, and you can be sure to see every possible options available in one place.
However, you can also sometimes made a right click and make changes without opening a panel, it's quite rare though.

I'm not sure why but I really hate Prospekt even though I didn't play it. Is it because everyone is talking about it even though it doesn't seem to add new stuff nor seems different from HL2? Is it because the modder spent two years developing it and thinks he thus has to be paid?
