there are ways to fix both of these problems, but they're not obvious and would require pretty much anyone not intimately familiar with windows to google the solution, and ergo, is complete dogshit

Hey let's open an online game store that treats PC games like apps and encrypts them so they can't be modified. Also, they don't work on certain monitors.

Hey let's add DLC and popups asking for ratings to solitaire and minesweeper. Hell, let's add it to the calculator too!

Hey, let's bump up our flagging update numbers by "accidentally" releasing an update for our older OS that causes computers with certain motherboards to stop working. Woopsie!

If you use it professionally then it must be for like personal graphic design or something because:

Only a retard would not be bothered by this update shite.

gently caress you Windows 10.

So Windows 10 randomly deciding to update obviously is not important for you. For anything remotely important, even for non-technical usage, the above would be unacceptable.

lol yeah. Anyone that's even remotely OK with that feature is a drooling idiot.

I was wondering about my Mac the other day because I've never seen it updating. I googled how to update and loaded up the Apple store. It hasn't updated, because Apple only really updates their OS at point releases which are essentially seen as new "products". None of this "patch tuesday" bullshit.

Also another hilarious thing about the forced updates is now the government gets to mail a nice little National Security Letter targeting whoever they feel like and Microsoft has to comply and keep mum about it. Spoiler alert: this has already taken place. The combination of constant updates and forcing them onto machines means that our great government can own anyone's computer within a manner of days remotely.

Not to be a win fanboy here but I have never had this happen. Maybe he clicked wait 4hours or something when the update came up.

It's not simply just applying the updates, what about downloading the updates when I'm doing something super important where I don't want either bandwidth wasted or cycles used on a non-essential process.

the funniest thing people bitch about win10 for is the control panel's new silly overlay. Last time I checked both 7 and 8 had dumb casual-user default views for the control panel too

and lol if you don't just hit the windows key and start typing "control" and hit enter when it figures it out after the 3rd or 4th character, I've been doing that since Win7 and it takes you straight to the big-boy control panel
