    Ever? Too many times. When I think I’ve told Windows Update “yes, do all the shit, yes it’s fine, yes I’m sure, yes you can do it, yes I really want you to do it, yes I’m sure I really want you to, yes I’m sure I’m sure, yes for the umpteenth fucking time” and switched off my monitor to go home for the weekend, the number of times I’ve come in on a Monday morning just to find I have to click “yes” yet again then have to sit there watching it grind out its updates.

    I just wish they’d add a checkbox, off by default, that says “yes you can do it all, just stop asking stupid fucking questions” that I can click and go home. But for some reason Microwank insist I have to sit there watching that fucking update percentage creep up then endlessly sit at “100% all is done, please wait” for no reason whatsoever.

    Oh yeah and there always seem to be way more reboots needed when BitLocker is active. I’m sure 1 reboot is the norm with occasional 2’s. But with BL it’s usually 5-6 reboots.

    I used to work at a place where MS would raise tickets with us and I always wanted to give them the WU treatment. But professionalism always got in the way of “This ticket is 100% complete, you must close and reopen it to continue”.





  • Not supporting the orange moron by any means, but this article is incredibly badly written. He claims gas is down to $1.98, but the best the article can do is “drivers are UNLIKELY to find gas [at that price]” - capitalisation mine.

    Unlikely and unable are different things. If drivers are unlikely (and not unable), then that means some of them can, which means gas IS available at $1.98, therefore Fart is correct.

    Now if gas really isn’t $1.8 anywhere then the article can drop all the guff about averages and unlikeliness and simply state outright: no garages anywhere are selling gas at $1.98.
