i like the assumption that having a different wallpaper will "inevitably break" the OS/system, rather than admitting that having windoze OS and its incredible suite of shitty, unstable and extremely expensive software is what will inevitably break the OS/system.
corporate m$ admins who don't hate microsoft are the most incompetent, sniveling idiots and are trained to blame the user for everything, because god knows if you don't have every KB article memorized and don't realize how any one of thousands of innocuous actions can cascade into critical errors and catastrophic failure in that garbage environment... you muste have broken the thing that is barely held together with constant patches and configuration resets/rollbacks.
How do these people think computers work?
You see this so often from phone-as-primary-computing-device people. You ask a simple question like "hey has anyone figured out how to use this device to (usage unintended by OEM)?
"STOP NO!! Don't turn on that setting you're going to break it!! You can't put linux on your mac that would break everything it's so unbelievably complex that your puny mortal mind could never understand what powers you're playing with!!!!!!"
They're all GENERAL PURPOSE COMPUTERS. You can do LITERALLY ANYTHING with them so long as no one is standing in your way, and often even when they are.
The kids need DESKTOP COMPUTERS yes I'm going to be a boomer about this forever don't even try to change my mind.
iPads are so ridiculously underpowered on their stock OS. Their hardware is perfectly capable of running a desktop OS in a virtual machine
