it was vastly easier to install linux mint than it is to figure out registry editing or whatever the fuck i'd need to avoid this
Welcome to Linux Mint mate!
Maybe Cinnamon mate!
I thought Cinnamon and Mate were different things... /s
For the people who doesn't get it (I notice your /s, so you do get it): It's has a hidden joke. Mate can also mean "friend". So "Welcome to Linux Mint mate!" can mean two things at the same time. Hence my reply: "Maybe Cinnamon mate!", where "Cinnamon" refers to "Linux Mint Cinnamon", but mate just refers to friend/buddy. But Mate can also mean MATE, a classic desktop environment for Linux Mint.
Oh haha, didn't realise that pun was intended... But yeah thats right :)
