Think about it this way, the Arabic number system has the digit with he largest value on the left, it makes more sense to place the largest term on the left as well. This also conveniently allows you to collate dates with standard lexicographical order. There's a reason the YYYY-MM-DD format is an international standard.

Windows 7 will remain viable for a very long time, trust me. Nobody in their right mind would upgrade to 8/10. Tell me, WHAT THE FUCK ARE APPS? Why the fuck are APPS on PC????? I want PROGRAMMES on my PC, not fucking "APPS", "APPS" belong to the cancerous "smart"phone generation. This is why I also don't use a smarthphone, these social media nonsense, those feminine "upgrades/advances" of adding music or pictures to a phone. Listen you cancerous subhumans, phones are for making phonecalls and sending sms. NOTHING ELSE. If I want to play a game on my phone, I will play snake. If I want to take pictures, I will buy a proper camera designed for taking pictures. If I want to listen to music, I will use my iPod nano.

Fuck apps, fuck smarthphones, fuck this generation of deranged low IQ trash, fuck apps on my PC.

I will upgrade to a new windows, if it truly improves on 7, not adds gimmick retardation of apps from mobiles to pc.

I've tried to play Golden Sun twice now and I've noticed a few things

1. This game looks like fucking hot garbage. It did not age well at all. Nothing is outlined so everything blends in to each other making the entire game look like an oil painting by a first grader. The faux-3D only serves to incite motion sickness. Donkey Kong Country did 2D/3D correct. This game makes me want to vomit.

2. Every decision I am making either has no immediate repercussions or is simply a question to give me a false sense of choice. There is no sense in asking bullshit questions as often as this game does if they are meaningless.

3. There is so much needless melodrama and exposition. It will frequently take characters around 5 minutes to have a 30 second conversation, between them wondering out loud the most obvious things to do and emoting at each other. If I'm in an erupting volcano, it's time to get the fuck out of there, not stand around with my cock in my hand debating semantics with theses anime-tier jerkoff villains.

Combat and music are tight though.

Learning it isn't the problem. Windows 10 has some of the worst defaults that you could possibly dream of. Don't get me started on everything wrong with Windows 10. If I need an entire subreddit of info and power-shell commands to get a working operating system, I mind as well learn Linux instead.

It's not even throwing the bathtub out with the water at this point, Ubuntu 16.4 literally takes less time to set up, and it has plenty of emulators for /v/ game boy advance playing folks as well.

And those app stores that you disabled? Those are where games like Halo 2 are going to be on. Have fun re-enabling them and being forced to play in border-less windowed mode without advanced graphical feature support for things like SLI

I once had a Golden Sun cartridge that I got for free at FUCKING GAMESTOP back in 2008 or something. I was walking out of the store from buying something, when the cashier stopped me and told me I had dropped something. He handed me the single cartridge in one of those see-through GB cases and when I told him it wasn't mine, he said I could have it anyway. I was pretty stoked, because I hadn't ever played Golden Sun, but heard great things about it. Played the game for hours that night. Had a good time.
Too bad the battery was fucked, so I couldn't actually save, so it was useless. Even when GameStop give you free shit, it's still shit.

All Apps is just the same list of installed software as before, except it's sorted alphabetically instead of randomly so it's actually usable.
The shit that comes preloaded in the start menu is, well, shit, but it can all be removed in a couple of minutes and replaced with what you want. The customizable tiles work way better than what we previously had in Win7; the only thing I dislike is that they're so big and if you set them to be smaller they look bad because they don't get compacted.

It isn't following a rigid logic system, but it doesn't need to. Its just giving a value heirarchy to the information presented. When asking for the date, Americans apparently value what month it is, the day, and what year in that order. This is literally not something to sperg out over.
