How slooooow can you go?
-Me, setting up a brand new Win10 computer for a customer
Seriously, #windows users out there. Is it always this painful to use? I've been sitting in front of this brand new Dell all-in-one (customer's purchase) for an hour just trying to get the basics set up and everything is lagging horribly because of all the background updates.
How is that acceptable to normal people?
@notjustbill I use Windows 10 at my day job. It's even worse when you're stuck with a machine that has most of its knobs locked by corporate IT. It's only tolerable because I get paid to put up with it.
@starbreaker @notjustbill Latest "update" ate four hours of my day.
On the bright side, I now have a dedicated folder that won't go away in which to store the output of the cheapass 3D Paint thing that I haven't been using since MS released it.
@notjustbill @starbreaker Fairly certain I saw a blocky torus and some sort of U-shaped thing when I accidentally opened the wrong folder.
@DaveHiggins @notjustbill That was just Yog-Sothoth saying howdy.
@starbreaker @notjustbill If it were 'Umr A-Tawil, I might be pleased.
However, I suspect MS is one of the darker avatars.
@DaveHiggins @starbreaker I hope it at least comes with a bunch of sample images you'll never open and also can't delete
