It's better to be safe than sorry, so I uninstalled mine. How about you?

In the old days I would be surprised to hear about a major issue like this came out from Microsoft. Things changed a lot, and in recent years such kinds of shitshow has been a constant from Microsoft. It's not only about the crappy codes; it's that they don't have the foundamental process and quality control of anything they are doing.
I'm still stickin with win10
Good thing I'm running Windows 12.

Have not had a debian crash in over 5 years.
With that said, a windows 10 install for games with disabled updates works ok. It crash 3 times last month.
I wouldn't put nostalgia on high horse though.
Windows ME was a shit show. It was a heaven for virus and unstable to the core.
Windows 7 was a damage repairer which played the role of a facade of absolute madness that Microsoft went through after xp for years till 7 came to rescue.
This is scary. Waking up with a update installed that physically kills a hardware, that too as important as a storage drive
I thought it was new, but this one happened like last week?
I'm using Windows 10, not 11.
My drive got bricked. It had 600 TBW life, but got bricked at 25..not sure if it is related.
exactly why i'm sticking with windows 10
Unix (diverse variants) user here: what is "crashed" and "bricked", what does that mean?.
Trying to understand what this is about. A paid for Windows feature similar to a random generator I suppose?
