Consider yourself blessed if that’s the most dreadful computer experience. I’ve had severe anxiety induced by:
* user errors, e.g., why is that “rm” command taking so long? or “Save As” over-writing an important file
* software bugs, e.g., “no boot device found” after the most recent Windows 10 update
* hardware errors, e.g., USB flash drive suddenly becomes unreadable
- Causality1 6y agoThose are bad events that happen once and then are over and you pick up the pieces. Windows 10 is like learning you have a terminal illness. It's a few small inconveniences now but you know it's just going to get worse and worse and worse.
