How is one supposed to have a local admin account if it's fucking online. Makes no sense

The point is not to help you control your own machine, the point is trying to force people to subscribe to their own machines.

That's exactly what it is and it's infuriating. I planned this rig, I bought the parts, I built it, get your god damned hands off of it, Microsoft. When I can muster up the energy you'll be forever doomed to a life in a KVM in Linux, you assholes.
