    Make it a bit more fun.

    1 in 6 chance to trigger the logic.

    The logic?

    • Get list of all files ending in .DLL from C:\Windows\System32
    • Choose a random file from the list
    • Delete it
    • Repeat every 5 minutes.

    The slow deterioration, and random issues appearing that are tough to diagnose would be more fun than such wanton destruction.

      The equivalent of losing (part of) a finger on each success/failure, instead of totally evacuating the contents of your skull.

      Not really. Microsoft compiled a version of their OS for ARM devices - creatively named “Windows on ARM”, but on a Raspberry Pi I’d hardly describe the performance as “running” - walking/crawling would be more apt.

      If DOSBox runs on one, then the old DOS-based Windows versions might work. But then, they didn’t keep much in System32, where they even had it at all.

      They’ve made Windows IoT Core that runs on Raspberry Pi. I have a colleague that maintains a tanning bed system that uses two Pis running that for each bed, one to operate the bed itself and one to accept payments.

      It’s mad
