A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Updates forced at inconvenient (or inapropriate) times aren't a good thing though.

Don't interrupt my work right bloody now.

You can update later when I'm done doing what I'm in the middle of.

The forced updates are usually after the system has bugged the shit out of you to update for a week or two.

Plus, you can easily disable it.
