Is this true?
>>107091815It depends, if you tell me I have to then I don't want to. If you give me a choice and don't bug me about it, then sure.
because nowadays it's """"updates""""
Yes, I like things that just work. This is somehow a war crime according to tech giants and /g/ autists alike.
>>107091815yep. people want SOTA softwares, not the ones that need updoots
>>107091815That's only because he runs windows and everything related to update on windows sucks
>>107091815Must updates are completely invisible, I don't give a fuck.
>>107091815Depends on the update. Security updates - sure. Added features or actual bug fixes, too. "We remodelled our entire software and btw you now need an online account to use it" - no.
>>107091815Depends on the updates. I don't want to install updates that break everything or leads to major changes.
>>107091815People do not want to install FORCED updates.
>>107091869Mac OS makes you wait 30 minutes every time you want to install even the most minor system update.
>>107091815updates as a kid>cool, something new to play aroundupdates as an adult>this is either gonna break something, remove functionality, or add stupid stuff
>>107091815Yes, but only for Wintoddlers.
i don't mind updates since i've moved to linuxyou literally just press y a bunch of times
Why Does He Type Like That
>>107091987>bro I'm just gonna trust whoever uploads stuff idcgod I hate retards like this
installing updates...installing updates...installing updates...restarting installing updates...restarting windows is shiti don't mind it on linux, it's not scheduled i just do it when i go to install new software
>>107092033as opposed to microsoft shipping whatever black box code they shit out at you?linux updates are a lot more trustworthy than windows ones now
>>107092033dunning kruger post
>>107091815If there are new features i cant see why not.

>>107092095If you genuinely believed that you would go around downloading the most obscure and freshly uploaded packages to prove it to yourself
i remember when the witness first shipped a section of the game required shadows to be rendered properly to workbecause jonathan blow hadn't ever tested his game on amd gpus it was completely broken
>>107091866this. he and Casey are traumatized by Windows yet when they give alternatives a try they cherry-pick and complain about the smallest things. i would empathize with the growing pains of a normal user but that's not them. then they happily go back to using Windows where they trudge through piles of far worse shit. the cognitive dissonance is absurd.
>>107091875>"We remodelled our entire software and btw you now need an online account to use it"this is an unholy anti-user alliance between the developers and the marketing department. They both need constant change to justify their jobs, the greatest nightmare for both groups is there not being anything new. Developers because they hate maintaining existing code and love writing new features the way they know it ought to be (this month, before they change their mind), marketroids because they don't know how to sell a product that people are already familiar with, especially to people who aren't already users. They get paid exclusively on growth (see also: the stock market) so they care about screaming "Look! NEW!" to people who aren't users and don't give a shit about existing users since they're probably too lazy or locked-in to leave anyway. FOSS doesn't have the marketers but makes the devs much worse by giving them free reign.
>>107091815modern developers release an update for the smallest bug. developers from a decade or two ago would bundle bug fixes, maybe even bundle them with feature updates.
yeah, and no shit, i dont want to risk something that previously worked not working anymore
people *say* they don't want updates, just like how they *say* they would prefer higher quality discourse over higher traffic platforms, yet you see most of them lining up everyday to witness endless displays of brain defecation, and get annoyed if the stream of brain shit slows down (wink wink).

>>107092486>486 I'll check thatBut yeah, this.
>>107092341windows is shit but linux will always be worse
>>107091815only for forced updoots
>>107091815Installing updates should be optional. On Debian, you can configure unattended-upgrades to automatically install security updates for vulnerable packages, while just ignoring everything else.
not for me. i'm a compulsive updooter (rolling release distro with package stabilization requirements)
>>107092701most transparently disingenuous cope of all
>>107091815Which is why its installed for them.
>>107091815Does this fucker EVER not COMPLAIN? I swear to god if you open his twitter he is just complaining about things all day every day. What an insufferable human. How can you live your life like this?
>>107091815I love to updoot my machines, it's like a celebration, what is he talking about?
ayo its the yt boy that made that mario game!
>>107091866like some linux distros dont basically brick your machine when you update?
>>107093508it's prob some shit about how updates only occur when you're about to do something and you have to deal with the app nagging before starting your work. then a 20 minute diatribe about flow getting interrupted or whatever and how important that is and non one but him and his buddies realize it. meanwhile package managers exist and if anyone brought it up he'd complain about some tiny issue preventing him from using them.
>>107091815Yes.
>>107091815It is.Updates should be done in the background, seamlessly, and mostly without the user even knowing.If/When you want to do an UI update then you have to give the option to remain on the old UI theme.And if you break something by updating your shitty software, then you commit Seppuku. That's just how it should be.
Yes.
Yes. People want to install new software, not updates. It's literally the difference between Timmy making and sandcastle in an existing sandbox and installing a new play ground.
>>107093501the man has no life whatsoever and has a compulsion to attention whore on twitter, always over the most trivial and nonsensical things nobody gives a fuck about. he's one of many of the internet's tech who's who of colossal faggots whos arrogance and sense of self satisfaction greatly outweighs the number of iq and skill points they've accumulated.
>>107091815When using FOSS they're usually welcome as they bring new features, fix bugs etc.With proprietary software you are always thinking what's going to break, what's going to get removed, how are they going to enshitify it etc.The examples are too numerous to mention, but probably most egregious with IoT and other "smart" gadgets.
I don't update
>>107091815Yes, I have an entire Arch repo on my ssd just so i don't ever have to update.
>>107091815Yes it's very trueThe only app I voluntarily keep updated is freetube because Youtube actively tries to kill it every 2 monthsand if you think throwing me to another screen or website and expect ME to download an update manually is the answer you are insane

>>107092007twitter speak
>>107091831I actually enjoy Linux updates. Windows updates there's no information on what's happening and so you never know if this is going to be a slow or fast update. Also pressing shutdown or restart is like Russian roulette with updates. Watching Linux updates is satisfying, you get a lot of terminal out that tickles the tism itch
>>107092253Don't need to because the package manager handles this for me you fucking retard
Every time I read anything by Jonathan Blow I want to Blow my brains out, fucking retard made a shitty indie game 50 years ago, who gives a fuck.
>>107093557congratulations on falling for memes you read on /g/
laughing at all the midwit iqs interacting with updates while i have not heard seen or noticed an update in years on silverblue/ublue and still am always on the latest version
