I'm a programmer. My program created a big file. Give me the
POWER to *DELETE* *MY* *FILE*!!
On Windows, you'd be told the file is busy and it wouldn't be
deleted. How is that giving you the POWER to DELETE. YOUR. FILE?
At least Windows fans aren't arguing it's "powerful", just that it's useful. I'm
not a Windows fan though.
So if Windows does it bad, does it justify whatever Unix does, or should we
compare to the sensible thing to do instead?
During the cold war, whenever a Soviet official was asked about human rights in
the USSR or such, the immediate response would be "In the USA they lynch niggers!"
