This is what happens when you leave decisions with social consequences to engineers... they end up optimizing to strange anti-social characteristics at the cost of any sort of social reality.

Typical engineers, tipping into eugenics to treat society as an optimization problem...

Is there a relation to GNU? I see lots of wildebeests & penguins in the artwork and the art/writing is reminiscent :)

If there's nothing readily available online, my first idea would be to skim over the source for a few different already existing filesystem drivers.

Maybe this will help?

I installed a fresh copy of windows straight from the official ISO a month or two ago and was bombarded with candy crush, tiktok, CNN, instagram, LinkedIn, etc. It took me a few solid hours to get it out of my way as much as possible.

After that, even on my brand new Ryzen 9, it took 15 seconds to open a web browser. I decided to quit my windows-only games and delete windows in favor of Linux (like usual).

It's not just OEM installs, perhaps you got windows a few versions back and updated it avoiding the new bloatware crap.
