Look, it's a of 💀 software fails from the Jurassic era of desktop publishing. Because nothing says "innovative" like reminiscing about programs that couldn't hack it in a world of Windows 3.1. But hey, at least we can waste pixels on them now! 🖥️🚮

Windows has PERSISTANT bugs in the "autohide" function for its Task Bar that drive me nuts. I always want "autohide" on, and regularly access the task-bar by hovering at the bottom of the screen. It's part of my workflow. And it BREAKS, randomly, all the time. Earlier this week it broke and I can't fix it. Reboots, turning it off and on, my usual shortcut of minimizing all windows and clicking the desktop, all failed. I don't know why.
