Man, I keep fucking forgetting how people are so ignorant about computers and then something like a broken Windows update occurs and plurks get made and people everywhere are shaking and crying about it.
Yes, you moronic fuck, if Microsoft says uninstall it and has pulled the ability to install it, then you should uninstall it even if you haven't had problems yet. Because the key word there is yet.
No, you do not fucking have to restart right away if you uninstall it. It will not go, "LOL J/K I reinstalled because you weren't serious enough about getting rid of me." That is not how uninstall works jfc.
And holy shit no. No. Microsoft is never going to make it so they can just uninstall updates from their end the same way they can automatically install them for you if you don't turn off auto-update. How fucking stupid do you have to be to think that is ever a good idea?! Yes, let's make it easy for someone to remotely uninstall security updates! That sounds like an excellent decision that won't be totally exploited at all by some hacker who wants to turn your computer into part of his global porn server cloud. Honestly, I don't even like automatic updates, but let's face it, there are plenty of people without the basic ability to install shit and, as computer viruses can prove, it is pretty easy to put programs on a computer without much work on the user end.
and yes this is tangentially rp related because we all use computers for this shit and chances are some of the whiny babies in that big psa plurk are rpers.
your stupid, uninteresting, unrelated to rp beyond the fact that we do use computers whining reminded me to install those updates I downloaded the other day so thanks for being a whiny tittybaby I guess.
lol dude one of the recent updates microsoft released as buggy and can fuck up your os so maybe you should like not install all those updates
also this person isn't being a titty baby, i saw that plurk, the people in that plurk were being tittybabies. it was like watching 2 dozen of my moms fretting over stupid shit because they're that computer ignorant and overthinking shit rather than just uninstalling an update and moving on
then they can obviously disregard what i said? was there a point to your comment other than sounding like you think people need to be educated there's other systems out there when really you're just pointing out useless shit or?
yes you stupid bitch so let me walk you through this
your stupid, uninteresting, unrelated to rp beyond the fact that we do use computers whining reminded me to install those updates I downloaded the other day so thanks for being a whiny tittybaby I guess.
notice anon has not said what kind of updates. they haven't mentioned windows ANYWHERE, therefore they could easily be safe from the bug if, say, they used linux. which would make "lol dude one of the recent updates microsoft released as buggy and can fuck up your os so maybe you should like not install all those updates" useless advice for them
the anon who was reminded to install their updates was never whining about the bug. would you like to try again and explain what the fuck "if they are using a mac or linux then they obviously would not be whining about a windows 7 update bug" was all about?
If it was useless advice for them then it was also useless for Linux/Mac anon to even point it out. Which was my point. Also the plurk whining was about Windows from Windows users.
oh i managed to get at it a little easier since the computer boots up and everything. i was just getting these random ass crashes and they had me baffled because i haven't done a thing to this machine i wouldn't ordinarily do
if you're so clever when it comes to computers, why don't you go answer those 5(?) people in the plurk who uninstalled it, restarted, and are now stuck
yeah clearly this person doesn't know as much about computers as they think they do if they can't wrap their minds around basic uninstalling issues being a thing
