stoy comments on Every. Single. Time.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip -3 points 1 year ago (7 children)

IT technician here, I have a decade worth of experience dealing with computers and users, using Windows XP, 7, 10 and 11.

I have remoted into user computer on every continent except south America and Antarctica. I have used keyboard layouts from UK, US, DE, DK, NO, FI, FR, ES, NL, SE, TR, JP and probably one or two I have forgotten.

The only time I have seen the behavior described here was when using a third party patching system that fails to unlock bitlocker.

yeah i don't care about your experience, i care about mine. i literally use the update and shutdown option from the start menu and it consistently ends the process on my login screen after a reboot without shutting down. the fact that you think this isn't even possible only tells me you're shit at your job.

Damn, you go straight for the insult?

Not only do you go straight for the insult, but you also make claims that I have said things that I never did.

I never claimed that it was impossible (if I did, quote me on that, and I'll correct my mistake).

I did add an X to my post to show that I doubted that a normal update did this, which is resonable as I have only heard about this here on Lemmy.

You calling me shit at my job because I haven't found or heard about an obscure problem tells me that lack the knowledge and skill to make any determination about my job skill.

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.
