    It’s was just notes, not work work (that’s all in the cloud). And yes,I expect things to be there the next day, it’s been decades since I was working on a 2x86 with a bad hard drive that froze ar random intervals, so I had to save every few seconds. I do save even my random notes now, just in case, but if they get closes I will probably forget about them because the whole point is to have them on screen as reminders.

      It’s weird how being forced to restart your computer by the OS is obviously a new feature yet people defend it so religiously.

      I don’t understand why people care so much? It’s like people that don’t want to keep their PCs running always feel better about themselves for using their PC the way the OS forces them to?

      I miss the days of if you don’t have something nice to say just stfu. Now, it’s if you don’t say anything to put them down, how will you feel better about yourself?

        Eh… This was more of a comment on “why aren’t you saving your work” which has been a push point since the dawn of computers.

        That said, forced updates and restarts aren’t a bad thing. They should be defended to an extent. You don’t remember the days of virtually every consumer PC being months behind on security updates? Viruses running rampant?

        The feature can be bypassed by the users who actually care. Yes, with “a lot of” work to intentionally prevent non-power users from just flipping the bit and going back to a world of un-updated boxes of vulnerability.
