OpenSuse Tumbleweed Linux. It tells me that it has updates available at a rate that I set. I do them weekly. I can do the update at my leisure in the background and then do a reboot if needed when I want.
Well, frankly, if you have a Windows Operating System in your cauldron you are just asking for trouble. It may be easier to use but the Unix version is more reliable.
OK It’s the latest i-cauldron, If I could have your attention while we go over the safety procedures. Keep your hands inside the cauldron. During the ride, if you become disoriented…there’s nothing we can do about it. Have you removed all your jewelry? – Are you allergic to shellfish? Okay! Let’s make it happen, cap’n! Oh wait! I never got the updated software. Still working off the 2.0 version. Your cauldron needs to reboot.Give it a minute.
Another variation on Murphy’s Law: When there is a problem that needs to be immediately solved on one’s computer, it’s running an update that takes a few weeks (slight exaggeration?) to install. In Wiz’s case, it’s his cauldron.
And I thought Wiz made all of his own magic. Never occurred to me that he just bought it off the shelf. I am a little less impressed with his magic now.

One of the ironies of life! Every time that windows updates, the computer works slower or with more hiccups than it did BEFORE the update!

Gotta love a system that is so full of flaws, weaknesses and inefficiencies that it needs nearly daily updates.
