Software/driver updates?        What       maintenance apps?       None of those I do 'always'. Yes I do update apps, but I use Patch my PC       home updater       and in one click it tells me what, if any, need to be updated, and will do       that for me.              So as much as I agree with you and I wouldn't leave my Linux and don't do much       in Windows       because I'm just not comfortable any longer, I wouldn't say it's as bad as you       say.              --       Linux Mint 22.2, Mozilla Thunderbird 140.6.0esr, Mozilla Firefox 146.0.1        Alan K.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
