Windows updates always release on the second Tuesday of every month. They have been doing that for 20 years or so. How does anyone get surprised by them?
The only out of line updates are critical security fixes for actively exploited issues and those are rare.
It’s not the surprise. It’s the soul crushing, unavoidable inconvenience of never having any say as ads get forced, new unwanted features get added, more AI bullshit injected, more updates now, no matter what you have going on… for all time.
It’s the fact that there is no choice for users but to just accept that Microsoft is forcing them to turn the computer they had last year into a totally different computer this year.
The man with the microphone is Shinichi Yokoyama, who in 2018 was the Chairman of the Judicial Affairs committee in Japanese Parliamen.
On December 8th, 2018, Japanese Parliament voted on a hotly contested immigration reform bill that allowed foreign workers a path to Japanese citizenship. The plan was put forth by then-Prime Minister Shinzo Abe earlier that year and was opposed by Japan's opposition party, as well as some in Abe's right-wing base.
When Yokoyama attempted to move to hold a vote on the controversial bill, he was beset by members of Parliament who apparently wanted to stop him from moving forward with a vote, leading to the image of Yokoyama speaking into his microphone while dozens of politicians attempted to restrain him.
It should be noted that physical altercations are not exactly a rarity in Japanese Parliament, as the group has made headlines for what some have called "brawls" in both 2015 and 2023.
I had Windows force a reboot and I could not do anything about it. And in multiple cases it did not let me to shut down my laptop without installing updates. It's really fun when you're in a rush and have to leave and take your laptop with you, but Microshit does not let you shutdown your fucking PC without doing updates for the next 15-20 minutes :)
