it's one of those "i wish there were more than three prominent operating systems to pick from and i wish they weren't all monolithic kernels" days

@typhlosion i think windows is a microkernel actually?

@dog my intent really was:
1) i wish there were more than three options if you wanted any software to work
2) i wish there were more exploration of exotic OS architectures, like exokernels

@dog no reason other than i like having choices and i think os design is cool, i guess :v
