“We increase the disk/ram consumption, reinstalled edge for you (you can’t scape) and added a few ads somewhere. Have fun!”
The new update was candy crush! You uninstalled it before, but we think you were mistaken.
We saw you uninstalled candy crush. We fixed that for you.
Windows: Runs update 20+ minutes on shutdown and 20+ minutes on next startup, requiring multiple reboots: nothing has changed.
Linux: Runs update for 5-10 minutes when you want it to update, changes basically the whole OS and adds a metric shit-ton of features and doesn’t even care if you reboot or not.
Longest update for me was ~5 minutes in W10, mostly new definitions for the Defender and security patches. You can consult the property of the updates in the M$ page and also undo the last update, if you want. Memes of Windows are nice, but this one was valid 15 years ago, back then it was true that you could die in an update, but not now.
On powerful PC’s, yeah, my home PC is a rather powerful one and it would take me around a couple minutes to update.
However, I remember two years ago having to use Windows 10 on a school PC (which was a crappy thinkpad) and it took around 1.5 hours to update after I did the mistake of arriving too early and deciding to update the laptop as “might as well, got nothing better to do”, then not being able to do anything for 1 hour.
Though admittedly, the laptop wasn’t updated for a while (guessing around half a year?) so it probably was catching up to updates.
Maybe it was in deep freeze? I know the schools in my area do that for any computer the students use incase they fuck with it.
Can I forward our users to you when they want to work and need to wait 30-40 minutes before the stupid Windows update has completed?
Can I forward all our users problems to you when I switch them to Linux?
Don’t forget, all have different hardware setup and different needs. So most likely would need different distros just to perform what they can now on Windows.
Maybe just install some SSD next time instead of complaining about Windows.
Idk, it still takes Windows 10 much longer than I’d expect on my system. I wish it only took 5 minutes
First World problems
“This more complex OS takes 3 more minutes to update completely, oh the horror!”
It really is a first world problem, can’t deny that. Still though, it shouldn’t take that long to install.
Look at pacman on Arch, that thing installs packages so fast, the only meaningful factor for how long an update takes is your download speed
You misspelled a word. Let me correct that for you:
“This bad OS takes 3 more minutes to update completely, oh the horror”
Thank me later.
Just kidding. One thing that is unarguably better with Linux is, is the fact that you can update whenever you want and you can do it in the background while using your computer.
You forgot that they installed the Linux preacher assholeware in secret.
It just wanted to try to trick you into making edge your default browser and setting up a Microsoft account again
sounds about right
More surveillance and telemetry 😊
There was actually a pretty big security problem in libwebp recently that likely led to some updates. Trust me, you’d want that patched.
The update isn’t important. Being under the Totally Trustworthy™ umbrella of Microsoft is what’s important. You don’t need to see behind the curtain.
Honestly, that what businesses want because it checks off a box in their cyber insurance application. They don’t care as long as their ass is covered.
You can read the patch notes if you want to see what’s in the update just like linux.
Patch notes: Bug fixes and stability improvements
Patch size: 17.3 GB
New telemetry and advertising pop-ups.
Can I interest you in Linux?
I am already interested. My next laptop will b a Linux.
Are you aware that you can already dual-boot it? So you can install it parallel to your Windows install and use both
No, link pls.
Take a look at this step-by-step tutorial => Tutorial FreeCodeCamp Dual Boot

The easiest way offers Q4OS (Debian base), it has an Windows installer, you can install and desinstall it like an normal programm, it get rid of the system and you can use it along with Windows or in Dual Boot.
Up there with don’t do anything we’re going to find a fix never found a fix in 30 years
1 small security fix and 10 more spying software
Only 10? They’re being gentle this time.
What major feature is bring removed next update?
and a partridge in a pear tree
