the X is the insult. I'm telling literally what happens on my own comouter and you're here like "umm doubt it you probably forgot how to shut down your system after 30+ years"

i refrained from saying fuck off because that's my normal response to shit like this.

As an IT technician, I have learned that everyone lies, weather they mean to or not, that is the entire reason of the "IT Aura" where shit just starts to work just because IT is watching the user.

You may very well be doing it exactly right, but Microsoft decided to change how that task is done properly, technically still making it a user issue.

The use of "X" was meant as a light hearted way of telling you that I believed something was left out of the explanation, this does not mean that it was done deliberately by you.

Shit happens, I don't blame you for Microsoft's incompetence, but I do blame you for your insults, claiming that I am shit at my job because I haven't seen an obscure issue that could be a normal missunderstanding of the normal update process, is, frankly, fucking stupid.

Going forward, I recommend you to not take memes so litterarly, remember that everyone has haf a different life and experiences, so step back from insults.

Oh, and your "fuck off" paragraph?

I am a resonable person, and never even considered posting that, even after being insulted by you.
