In all seriousness, this is why it’s always Microsoft:

An interesting historical piece thanks for sharing
It is insane to me that Microsoft just reboots your computer for updates even when you have work running and potentially lots of stuff open that cannot be reopened automatically upon reboot. Can you imagine how much lost work there must be and probably worse? They don’t let you change that. You can delay for 7 days, but if you forget, boom, more lost work. And there are workarounds but almost every time it updates, the workarounds are disabled, settings changed back, and you’re in the same place. At my work we have some processes running a long time, in service to customers. Usually we can redo it if we have to but occasionally it’s stuff that cannot be done again. Both the customers and my company are screwed. We would use a different OS if some of these apps were available. MacOS doesn’t do that and I’m sure Linux doesn’t either.

I think Mac does reboot for updates but you cave the option to delay until your mission critical work is done
