      When you start the service, does it start to sound like a Queen song? "MAPS!!! A-aaaaaaaah!!!!!"

        @Kelly What do you mean the Priest service?

        @BRRABill got it. If you say it out loud it works better.

          You'd be surprised at how many GIS places I've worked for that would love that feature. Having said that, every place uses Google Maps. If I need something, I will install it and configure it or have them access something via the web. Don't start including services into the base install.

            As bad as it is to question if telemetry would be on a *#$&ing server (I thought things like the Maps service would be obvious... but I digress), I was genuinely questioning if Cortana would make an appearance in WS2016.

                Yeah I saw it was absent... I just meant I was really start to question if Microsoft was going to include it. I honestly wouldn't have been surprised. More mad than surprised.

                  Did they get rid of Explorer and replace it with an over the top, tablet-ready file browser which hides most of the files and randomly selects which are most important? If not, can I patent this before Microsoft uses it?

                    It's like they want their customers to stop buying and using Windows stuff.

                      Too late.

                        Thank god I use FreeBSD for the most part; I've had the same Openbox (before that Blackbox) config for 16 years, bashrc / bas_profile too.. even longer actually. I've long dreamed of some sort of Unix with native NT API implemented. I contributed some to ReactOS until those people went completely insane, years ago, and started being big babies about decompiling and also using leaked source code. I care more about what I want than goofy software concepts of "right and wrong", tbh.
