Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I have spent the whole evening with Windows 8.1 downloading, setting up and doing it's thing.
The messages have gone from ones I understand:
"Downloading"
"Installing"
"Restart your computer"
to ones that I don't trust:
"checking some stuff"
"Setting up a few more things"
When did they get so casual and impertinent with us?

Don't tell me it gets worse?
I don't usually get bored but this is tedious. I'm adopting Ryan Dear's word: boregasm needed.

Probably because the latest software designers are kids and therefore are unable to string a proper sentence together in the Queens English using the appropriate grammar and punctuation like Wot iz CaN 1nn1t lolz  |

It's asking for a code it says it has sent somewhere. I don't know where they have sent it. I pressed skip and now it's "Taking care of a few things" with a range of different colours.
What bloody things is it taking care of?
If it's cleaning the bathroom and filling the fridge that would be handy.

Shhh dont turn round but as we speak it is going through your purse, getting all your bank and Credit card details, Within 24 hours you will recieve an Email from a Prince in Uganda confirming the transfer of 15 Million Dollars..Do NOT Contact the Police or Homeland Security or the Meerkat gets it  |

It told me to get ready and now I don't know what I do next. When it stops flashing colours at me I assume I can go to bed.
If the Meerkat gets it... too bad. |

It's got a girt big arrow that won't go away. I'm switching it off anyway. I just hope it will let me work tomorrow otherwise I'll have to use this one.
If you don't hear from me again the pixel pixies made me disappear.

"My daughter has windows 8 on her laptop and says it takes ages to update and always want to update!! "
It does. You have to let it warm up and get its updates out of the way. I prefer my old laptop but it kept dying when I was working. I only use the old one for Fab and storage now.

She only uses hers for UNI work, but days it takes an absolute age! She leaves it to hibernate sometimes, so she doesn't have to go through the whole process every time she turns it on to do work |
