    Meaning? That you need to update software? Of course you do. Even on Linux. But when you do you don’t have to reboot, for example. Minor difference caused by a smart filesystem versus whatever the fuck windows uses these days.

      They mean Microsoft will keep sneaking things like this into updates. We can stop them installing misfeatures if we know they’re coming but Microsoft can at any time just roll out a new update with different adverts in. Unless we stop updating there’s no way for us to select between legit updates and unwanted ads.
