gollark: It's like being angry if they came up to me and forced it down my throat if I didn't eat it within 10 seconds.
gollark: Forced updates: have seen.Candy Crush randomly appearing: have seen.Advertising: have seen screenshots.
gollark: What specifically?
gollark: I install most of my software from the repos on Arch and it is *still* faster than Windows updating only itself and its random junk.
gollark: My Arch system: package updates run in the background, on demand, basically no manual intervention, except I need to reboot for kernel updates and it takes 30 seconds.Windows: the entire system updates at once, it randomly breaks, I can't use the system while it updates and it's far too slow.
