The Zen Of Tech Support Nihilism

Content There's a new update! But there are a few unsaved projects and you are gone for, like, five minutes now. May I update and restart anyway? 1'1I take that as a yes. LOLNEIN.com

Ah, the classic code review escalation pattern. First, a technical question about WSL2. Then a polite explanation. Then suddenly the boss goes full nuclear: "I'm the head of engineering and could fire you" followed by "you'll be terminated and lose your 50K." Nothing says "healthy workplace culture" like threatening someone's career over a Windows Subsystem for Linux test. The corporate equivalent of bringing a flamethrower to a paper airplane fight.

Your download speed would slow down to the point where Windows would make this kind of absurd estimate, and you'd sigh and leave the room for a while (because you couldn't use the computer while it was doing this for fear it would crash and lose all your progress) and then you'd come back in 40 minutes and maybe it would now say 52 years or maybe it would say 3 minutes, who knew, not Windows.

Content 8:13 4 rimm. rean i'm seeing on Youture there is a way to erase it from the disk while installing Ubuntu. Is that how you did it? It should offer to intall ubuntu with a "dual boot" (side by side with windows) or to delete windows, but I would recomment that you do a dual boot. I'll check messages in the morning. good nite. Love you. okay, I'II see what I can figure out. Goodnight, love you too! 8:11 PM Just thought of why it's not working for you (I just had to get up and post this). The thumb drive that I gave is a boot-able drive. You'll have to find how to get pc to boot from the us. The setting is in the "Bios." Look up how access the Bios, usually by pressing one of the "F" keys while the pc is booting up (F2 maybe). Once this is done, insert the thumb drive in the us and start, or restart the pc I'll check in morning. Aa ProarammerHumor.ic

Mac users smugly watching the chaos unfold as Windows users deal with yet another catastrophic update. That smirk says it all—sitting comfortably in their walled garden while Windows folks frantically Google "how to rollback update" and "why is my printer suddenly speaking Klingon?" Sure, they paid triple for their hardware, but at least their OS isn't randomly deciding to rearrange the furniture while they're sleeping.

OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of these so-called "software engineers" with their RIDICULOUS version numbers that look like someone smashed their face on a keyboard! 🙄 We've spent DECADES perfecting semantic versioning only to discover—PLOT TWIST—nobody actually needs anything beyond v1.0! And when we wanted more features? "Just use plugins!" they said, as if that's not the digital equivalent of duct-taping features to a broken chair! And don't get me STARTED on those update prompts. "Please update to version 37.0.0.69.march2023.jaguar" — WHO NAMES THESE THINGS? A cat walking across a keyboard?! Meanwhile, we're all sitting here like obedient little puppies clicking "Yes, please install updates" while staring at loading screens that tell us ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. 22GB download for what? A slightly different shade of blue in the UI? The betrayal is ASTRONOMICAL!
