Just filed an IT helpdesk ticket at work with the title "My Windows desktop is properly screwed; like, it's impressive how screwed it is".

An excerpt from the body:

> Now the start menu does nothing; I can only launch things from the quick bar. Right-click desktop and “Open in terminal” does nothing, and “Display” says that the “ms-settings” app is not installed. Rebooting via Task Manager crashes explorer.exe.

They are replacing my cursed workstation, and I'm delighted that the purchasing department's ticket has duplicated the title of the helpdesk ticket, which as you may remember is "My Windows desktop is properly screwed; like, it's impressive how screwed it is"

@foo Only four years until I get a new laptop at work!

It will be so nice to not have to kill WSL2 in order to free up the RAM to run a VM!
