Huh, I've been on Lemmy through this instance a lot today and this post didn't show up until after the downtime. I noticed it was down, tried again about 40 minutes later and it was still down so I tried searching for it from other instances but nothing came up. Now it's at the top of my feed. Is there any way to get en email or something for things like this? Not that it's a common thing at all, just so people that might have the same experience know what's going on. And just to be clear, this was no big deal at all, I was just curious what was going on and felt there should be some place to find that out during the downtime.

Thanks for the post, anyway!

The Windows updating experience, both the system and apps via the Microsoft Store is so fucking bad it's unbelievable. Shit just stops working all the time, updates fail, grinds the whole system to a halt etc.

For several years now I've been unable to update apps in the Microsoft store in one go, I have to open it, click "get updates" and the circular progression bar goes to about 1/5 and then just stops. So I have to close the app, wait a few minutes, open it again and then press the "play" button for every single app that has updates for the download to actually start, nothing else works. It's been the same for Windows 10 and 11 across four different computers.

There was a Windows 10 update several months ago, might even have been last year that just failed for a ton of people and it took months before it was fixed.

"Eatable"

Edible*

"On top" is very subjective. Billions of people couldn't give less of a fuck who he was and is, including me. Even ignoring how it was always obvious he's a bad person, couldn't care less.

meatballs*

They didn't create just one spaghetti strand, why would they make just one meatball?

Wololo - Age of Empires

I'm surprised this isn't one of the top comments. I don't even play or have interest RTS games, only ever watched friends play it as a kid and it's still stuck in my head to this day.

Really? wildly waves hands at history

You gotta be extremely ignorant of even basic history to not see why.
