LOL not sure if this is because Windows warns you about dumb shit or because Linux will totally just allow you to nuke your entire OS with a single command.

Windows error messages are usually something to pay attention to if they generate a popup. But you can ignore most errors and warnings in the event viewer.

Linux is the same. If you get a popup, look into that, but if you see warnings or errors in a logfile then they can most likely be ignored if the app is working

Windows warning is like the check engine light in your car, ignore till it starts being a problem lmao

For the record, if your check engine light is ever blinking, you need to immediately shut off your engine.

Shit is going very very wrong in your engine at that point, to the extent that it might cause an energetic catastrophic failure.
