Windows to the Soul
Today’s comic is addressing the dreaded issue called MICROSOFT UPDATES! Please restart your computer to get frustrated.
This one is based on a real life story that makes me burn with the fire of 1 billion suns. As a digital artist there are times when I am at the mercy of the operating system. Windows in particular has this thing they do when they push out updates and the outcome is something akin to a drunk chimp dressed like a cowboy brandishing a handgun. That’s to say it will fuck up your day SOOOO HARD. Windows recently pushed out their spring update, and as many will let you know, it absolutely took a giant wet shit on photopshop and other Adobe products. This of course is coming on the heels of another update that castrated the hell out of anything Wacom via a conflict with windows ink. So that was lovely. Oh and not to forget the few days of sync issues that crept up for Google Drive. Surface Pro users are apparently getting a mad case of BSOD. Wow. So yeah, thanks for the wonderful updates and sending them out when they are still buggy. Really appreciate that.
I had to vent.
Me: Hello, can you force an update on my computer that will affect most of my vital programs in a negative way?
Microsoft: Actually, we were just about to push an update to do that.
Me: Can you also offer no help to fix the issues?
Microsoft: Have we ever not let you down?
