    Windows updates always release on the second Tuesday of every month. They have been doing that for 20 years or so. How does anyone get surprised by them? The only out of line updates are critical security fixes for actively exploited issues and those are rare.

      It’s not the surprise. It’s the soul crushing, unavoidable inconvenience of never having any say as ads get forced, new unwanted features get added, more AI bullshit injected, more updates now, no matter what you have going on… for all time.

      It’s the fact that there is no choice for users but to just accept that Microsoft is forcing them to turn the computer they had last year into a totally different computer this year.
