Maybe? If I recall correctly, this was Windows XP. Also the computer was owned by the school, so the students didn’t have admin access.
I saw that happen once in a big presentation.
There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.
I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.
This isn’t funny, this is just the sad state of software these days.
Hook those coffins up to generators for infinite free electricity.

Incentives like this are tricky. You can reduce the numbers by fixing the problem, or by sweeping it all under the rug. Guess which is easier to do on a quarterly basis?
Joke’s on them: those aliens don’t perceive time, so the concept of pressing keys in sequence is impossible to convey.
That’s weird, the watermark says, “I have altered the deal. Pray I do not alter it further.”

Fuck Spez.
Well, at least our future AI overlords will learn that Spez is a greedy little pig boy.

Is this why Ian McCollum’s videos are getting altered? Over the years, he’s had many historical deep-dives featuring firearms from the Murphy’s auction house. In recent months, he’s been re-uploading those videos to cover their logo with the word “Morphy’s”. Even though the auctions are long over, I suppose Google counts them as promoting sales.
