Huh, the Windows Server 2019 install now has the console-only version as the default. You have to select the "desktop experience" version to get the Windows GUI. Didn't feel like walking in the rain, but packed around my apartment for thirty minutes during lunch. Home ---------------------------------------- - pick up prescription (after 2 PM)?

But — really — how do you think designing a stacking window manager with _nowhere_ to iconify windows is a good idea??
