lnxw48a1: Was suddenly unable to print from #Win10. Tried all the standard tricks. Then I realized what happened. Two routers / #Wi-Fi access points. When The computer connects to the closer of the two, the #WSD port decides the printer is "offline", even though I can view the printer's configuration web page with a browser. Went back to reliable TCP/IP port and multiple jobs flowed ou https://nu.federati.net/notice/3337001

lnxw48a1: Let’s see what updates we have today. The $EMPLOYER machine runs on a different schedule than my personal #Win10 laptop (and a widely different set of software, too).

lnxw48a1: Annoying that #Ubuntu family operating systems still do not give a “use UTC” option during installation for the system timezone. Even my #Win10 laptop uses UTC. Too many family members are in timezones other than US-Pacific. Using a local timezone is just confusing, just as using AM and PM instead of 24-hour time is.

lnxw48a1: LOL. Last night (well, this morning at 03:00), I turned off the laptop with "install updates and shut down". Turned the #Win10 laptop on a little while ago and now it wants to reboot again. Why have they not mastered installing all the available updates at once, then requiring a reboot?

lnxw48a1: The #Win10 machine is using 76% of its memory with nothing open except the task manager. It's got 8Gigs of RAM. Going to shut it off and see what it looks like when I start it again in the morning.

lnxw48a1: The #Win10 update (feature update 2004) had downloaded and “installed” the other night, so rather than deal with restarts, I shut the computer off. That means I now get to wait through the process now.

lnxw48a1: Another member of $EMPLOYER #TechTeam told me his laptop just got upgraded to #Win10 1909. I hope HQ-IT thought about how to support those whose "upgrades" fail to complete, leaving an unusable device.

lnxw48a1: I am not sure whether it is #Win10 or the #VPN, but one of the two is having a little trouble today. Downloading updates is really dragulent today. (Dragulent as in "slow and draggy".)

lnxw48a1: One of the things that I dislike about #Win10 is that in dual-monitor and triple-monitor setups, it regularly and frequently drops one monitor, internally flipping it to "never use". Sometimes, I've had as many as five users queued up when I came in the door so I could turn it back to "use this monitor".

lnxw48a1: #Win10 woke up, downloaded and installed updates, started beeping at me because it wanted to reboot. What an annoying way to awaken in the morning.

lnxw48a1: Now watching some #PHP videos on the former #Lynda.com site ( now called #LinkedIn / #LockedOut Learning ) before I go back to the #Lua videos. I had to take a time out from Lua because none of the (book and video) examples of "first class functions ... pass the function to that one" were working for me and I could not see why. The odd thing is that the weird issues with scopin https://nu.federati.net/notice/3275480

lnxw48a1: Turns out that both #Erlang_OTP and #Elixir are available through #Chocolatey. I've started uninstalling things that I installed directly in #Win10 if I can replace it with a version through Chocolatey. Just getting all my (non-OS) updates through that system is worth it.

lnxw48a1: @dwaltiz @moonman I don't see that ending well. Even brand new computers with #Win10 minimum requirements are a mistake. I bought one in PR because I needed a Windows machine for tax-filing purposes. I went to run Windows Updates and right out of the box it said I need to plug in extra storage before it can install updates. 32Gig eMMC was already filled.

lnxw48a1: Doing another "LinkedIn Learning, formerly Lynda.com" #PowerShell course. This one is actually interesting and informative. But since I don't touch the company #Win10 machine very often, I'm not actually practicing what it covers.

lnxw48a1: I was recently in the electronics section of a couple of retailers. The sub $500 laptops almost all run on 32GB eMMCs, which means #Win10 will have trouble installing updates. I still think it is crazy to pay $3,000 to browse the Web and watch Netflix.

mmn: @dwmatiz I have #Win10 at work. It does _not_ "just work". I have already spent almost an hour trying to configure stuff so it works, but the laptop still stops outputting audio when the screen goes blank, goes to sleep when the lid is closed (despite power configuration which I've quadruplechecked!) etc. etc. These are problems I have never had with GNU/Linux.
