behemoth noun

2: something of monstrous size, power, or appearance
[as in] a behemoth truck

That's what Windows is.  Even Win10 is bloated *as fuck*.  It just
melds well with hardware above a certain standard.  And Win11 is only
more bloated.  Linux is salvation, for one who treasures the PC.

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.
