Dude, the point is

Having to install three programs and a language runtime AND ALSO configure them, and have one of the programs be a fork because you want "instant" feedback while changing volume (instead of having to wait until the end of the scroll) is absurd. It isn't simply "lol install 3 programs and it Just Works" - getting everything to interface with each other and then scripting everything up is a chore.

It's a bloody shame that something this time-consuming is necessary for something that comes out of the box in other mainstream OSes.

But of course your comment history is mostly one line zingers so why do I bother.
