One issue, however, is that an application can search a number of paths to

This gets into why people would put up with M$ Winblows, the
consistency of results, but they don't even realize that Windows has
tricked-out shit, too, they don't know what PowerShell is.  People
with awareness of the software would likely choose Linux, at this

beyond bloated, I have a decent system but it benefits greatly from
not running M$.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent.  States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.
