Excuse me while I go bleach my eye holes.
I’ll field this one.
Why would a man whose shirt says “Genius at Work” spend all of his time watching a children’s cartoon show?
I’ve had the odd stability issue every now and then. (There was one ongoing issue with my wifi that was caused by a bug in my manufacturer’s driver, but that was years ago on Windows 10, and they eventually fixed it.) But I honestly haven’t had any issues caused specifically by Microsoft recently that I can recall.
Any problems caused by major features updates are usually solved by simply reinstalling the driver. (And I haven’t had any of those sorts of problems in at least a couple years.)
It… only updates once a month, though. The second Tuesday of every month.
Any other updates are from the manufacturer/ software developer and not from Microsoft.
For me, it’s not that Windows updates my drivers during a big update. It’s simply that Windows broke the driver while installing a big update.
I’ve had it happen where my Wi-Fi driver broke so it could only connect to an unprotected network. So I’d simply setup my phone as a hotspot and download the Wi-Fi driver from the manufacturer’s website and reinstall it. That’d immediately fix the issue. Though, actually, that issue hasn’t occured in years. The last time it happened, I think, was in the early years of Windows 10.
My understanding (unless they’ve changed it) was that a restart is a restart because software (either the OS or 3rd party software or both) may need the computer restarted to finish installing or updating stuff.
I’d heard that a shutdown wasn’t actually a shutdown, though.
and I got one at least once a month.
According to this post, that’s the monthly update Microsoft releases.

Wasn’t ten years ago just Chrome, though?
I think you mean 20 years ago.
They must’ve done it in the hyperbolic time chamber.
No, viruses don’t mean the scientific definition of life. IIRC, the primary reason why is because, in order to make copies of itself, it must hijack a living cell’s reproductive system to do so. It can’t simply divide to make more of itself.
Linux, politics, and the occasional meme that doesn’t fit in either of the other two categories.
It dis-assembled the computer!
Oh, we had something like this in college. The vendor would load up the… well, actually, it was more like a big version of those little coolers you see in the checkout line in grocery stores—the ones with the sodas and stuff in them. Anyway, the vendor would load them up every couple days. It’d have sandwiches, salads, puddings (which were actually really popular), sodas, Gatorade, water, and a bunch of other stuff. If we wanted something, we would just get it out, scan the barcode on the scanner attached to the handle, tap our phones or cards to pay, and be on our way.

Since you mentioned it, I’m obligated to link this clip.
It’s worth noting that the saved pages are the only thing that are back for now. Their other services have not yet been brought back online.
Honestly, the only reason I remembered Prime Day last week was because an order I’d placed for something was scheduled to arrive then. (The only reason I ordered the thing from Amazon was because it was the only place to get it. I much prefer ordering from Best Buy and using their store pickup.)
Wait, you mean that guy who stood in front of the Waymo car?

Like I said, the illustration does break down.
