Musings for Friday - I Hate it When I Open My Computer and There's Been an Update [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

My mouse is slow. My tabs are gone, and they never restore as they’re supposed to. Everything is slower. The pointer stutters across the screen.

Updates, supposedly are designed to make things better, right? IMHO, WRONG! It takes me days to get my computer working the way I want it to work. Days! And most of the updates are stuff I’ll never use.

YMMV, when you get an update.

Now, when my phone updates, it never interferes with how I want to use it. (Well, almost never. Never say never.)

I had planned on writing something else today, but it took 20 minutes before O could get my computer to even open up and by then this ADHD brain had totally forgotten whatever it was that I was going to write about. It was gone. And don’t tell me how to write! I’ve been doing this for over 20 years. You do you and I’ll do me. I don’t think like you and I sure as hell don’t write like you. I’m not asking for advice, I’m sounding off. Read the room!
