I run custom scripts in place of the shutdown / restart / logoff functions. They give me a delay with a popup message and a voice alert. The scripts are programmed to stop if I hit escape before the delay is over. They also do a few other things, like warn me if certain apps are running and ignore apps that are hung.

They're pretty easy to make using AutoIt or AHK.

It's funny how everyone turns to socialist systems when capitalism fails them. That's not going to work out the way you think though. You're just taking power from those that have it and spreading it around. It'll just find it's way to whoever figures out how to use capitalize on it the best.

The problem with society isn't fair access to things like information or technology, it's with how people use them. Socialist systems never work for capitalist societies. Capitalism is just the economy used by fascists, and such people always seek to consolidate power and wealth for themselves. That inevitably leads to the majority being left out in the cold.

Actual socialism is when a society wants to ensure that all members have what they need to survive and prosper. But you all thought you'd be the ones to make it to the top, so you competed with each other over everything. Now you're crying because someone else is there instead.

Socialism will not save you, because you are not a socialist.

People decided it was a good idea to let citizens control the economy and government, because they wanted the opportunity to have that wealth and power themselves.

Society is just one big episode of r/LeapordsAteMyFace
