Nvm 74 now

Yea F them my ps4's discbay is broken. No problem for years but FOR SOME WEIRD REASON the first update after ps5 launch fails because of the bay being broken.

there's plenty more

Whaaaat my ps4 has been fine for like almost 5 years now

I had to replace the goo at one point but thats it

If you buy anything from sony that came after the PS2 that isn't a PSP to crack you fucked up really.

Yeap and that's just ONE of the many reasons I keep reminding people complaining about how all of a sudden they think Microshit is data mining them and locking down their PCs. This $hit has BEEN slowly in the works since XP first launched. We have Bush jr and John Ashcroft to thank for this with the (UN) Patriot Act

Why wouldn't they? XP was a great OS.

Yeah, government agencies really, really, really hate updating precisely because of bad updates. If it does the job they will happily keep running MS DOS for the rest of time.

Thank god it wasn't Vista

The amount of businesses and organizations still using XP is mind boggling, there are even banks and governments that use it.

An early version of ASUS Smart Doctor decided the fans on one of my 3870's didn't need to spin. No reports of over heating on the second gpu either. I just thought an update tanked performance. Turns out one of my cards was getting some passive cooking.

@@justinpatterson5291 talking of Asus, an old bios update for my then crosshair vii hero had a bug that hadn't been identified. It would randomly stop Cpu fans and pumps, I first realised when playing a game and it slowed down to a few fps. Enabled rtss overlay and noticed my Cpu was at 99°C Thanks Asus!

@@CaramelisedNipples crosshair hero vi ex owner here, that board is now in a landfill after receiving 10 blows from a sledgehammer. Newest bios completely broke it, it didn't boot up with any of my ryzen cpus anymore. (It sometimes did for one time then it looped in some fault code for ages) I want to find the engineer who made that abomination and its knees will turn 90°

Sounds like a certificate issue.

@@boltinabottle6307 certificate for what? The date and time in the software was configured based on non daylight savings so when it kicked in the client os conflicted with the software date/time

it also straight-up deleted user data in many cases

@@SamJoex Yes but it seems that data is really unimportant these days since there are people who openly vote against Windows 11 just because of some minor taskbar problem, instead of switching to it immediately.

@@TechnologyEverythingJohn Switching to Windows 11 doesn't guarantee better data security - at least not yet. (Windows 10 is still getting security updates.) In fact, data privacy is worse since folks are now forced to get a Microsoft account in order to install Windows 11.

@@SamJoex Why does a Microsoft account worsen data privacy? There is a workaround for the Microsoft account anyway, and Windows 10 forces the account as well. While switching to Windows 11 won't guarantee better data security, Windows 10 was just very buggy compared to other versions of Windows. Even though Windows 11 might seem worse, Windows 10's updates have consistently had problems. It is not worth sitting on Windows 10, in fact, I forced Windows 11 on my unsupported PCs just in the name of reliability. And suddenly, I am not frustrated with my computers anymore!

well, the tech companies learned a lesson: "Never say it is good for you, alway say it is for customers "protection", because you cant effectively protect something out of your control"

The difference is that Sony did it automatically, silently, without any user prompt, and with CDs that weren't even supposed to contain software.

Dosent EasyAnticheat from Fortnite also do the same thing, tbh rootkit anti cheats are stupid, its just a game goddamit

@@mayorplayz Genshin forces players to use Admin priviliges every time it launches for an anticheat, to enforce P2W in a (mostly) singleplayer game

@@WaterCat73 I think they are basically trying to take data from your pc, and they call it “anti-cheats”

It's not poor practice. Not for any situation.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

@@Xfade81 i agree its not poor practice

Well, that's why Linux communities have the 1 year rule, where bleeding edge software gets updated daily, but if you go for stable one then you get updates 1 year late, unless you explicitly ask for them. This way you know everything is perfectly stable.

When it comes to Windows, this is entirely understandable, ESPECIALLY for major updates.

even microsoft dont want you using win 11 😂

Windows just crashed on me like 4 minutes ago and I lost an unsaved untitled word document

Same happened to me a few weeks ago on a Windows 11 update

Sounds like EFI partition wich holds the bootloader got fucked.

This is why I don't want to switch to Win 11 until a few years have passed and it has become stable. I don't want to lose anything important.

Like covid19 vaccines? LOL

@@atodaso1668 nothing like it Those WHERE tested, despite whatever antivaxx bubble tells you

@@VJK102 "tested" with sealed papers and flawed testing. Also I'm not anti vaccination, I'm just against rushed and forced vaccination with few benefits and lots of risks. To each his own.

@@VJK102 Any medicine needs time to test, different people say different things but the most common values are: - 2 years to consider it working - 5 or 15 years to consider it safe to use (but not by significant portion of humanity at once) - 3 generation to consider it safe to use by entire humanity The reason for those times is to make sure you don't have any short or long term side effects, including those that can appear very late or even in next generation (genetical damage). None of covid vaccines were tested for second nor third stage, since its simply impossible, not enough time passed. There are known screwups done by doctors that were not aware of side effects of medicine until many years later. Two most famous were cancer from tobacco (used as throat medicine) and radiation sickness.

@@hubertnnn That's certainly not accurate. Polio, Measles, Tetanus, and Diphtheria vaccines were widely available well before "3 generations". If I want to give you the most benefit, polio vaccine was first researched in 1932 and mass vaccinations in the US started in 1955, a mere 22 years later. 22 years is, at best, 2 generations. Maybe you're trying to say that new common standards are what you propose, but that's likely pretty recent, and it probably isn't nearly as common as you propose. Acellular pertussis was released in Japan in 1981 and approved in the US 11 years later in 1991. Even if we assume the full 15 years of your proposed stage 2 testing for Japan, we would still only have 26 years of testing for the acellular pertussis for the US, which is still, at most, 2 generations. I get the concerns that these vaccines were pushed relatively quickly, but it's not quite that simple, and the assertion that it takes 3 generations (28 years if I'm being very generous, 40 years if I'm being more realistic) just isn't true. Also, the research on vaccines is much greater than it was for all of the previous vaccines, so even by extending safety margins, we should be experiencing less time to market because we don't need to do as much research to begin the work. Given the fact that these vaccines are based on tech established in 2013, it shouldn't take very long to develop them, and a lot of the testing has already been done. At worst, we cut the timeline by 4 years, but realistically we already had the 2 years worth of experience with the vaccines when we started, and it took almost a year to make them publicly available, so I'd say we only cut it short by a couple years. More importantly, why did a comment about testing software have to become a COVID vaccine debate?

While infuriating, are they required to do anything for you? I didn't think so..

It's called consumer rights!

@@FinnishArmy lol no they're not.

@@FinnishArmy I'm not sure about the laws in Finland (the name) but here in the US the single individual cannot file a suite/consumer affairs (semantics, not sure of technical word for a legal enforcement for unfair trade practices) complaint most of the time and said complaint is required before a judge will even listen to your case more then not. so gl!

@@lucky_lol Dude you might need to update your sarcasm detection software

@@devnol I mean yes sarcasm but there is truth in it.

When windows 10/11 updates comes - there is very high chance it may break something on your pc.

the amount of safeties on some equipment don't shock me now that i know about it... provided im dead

Thearc 25 right

Switched from Windows to PopOS. Never going back lol

I switched for manjaro many months ago. I’ve distro hopped within linux a few times, but never gone back. I’ve also never had a crash or a power outage do literally anything to my OS. I love it

This is also why you make full use of Time Machine or some other backup system!

Catalina and all newer versions were extremely buggy on first day. Had no problems when updating earlier versions. I‘m using a hackintosh and I‘m cloning my boot drive before every update. When something goes wrong, I can simply swap the drives.

They just keep ham radios as a backup now. Shouldn’t be an issue unless they lose power.

"First off, why the fuck do you have a mirowave that connects to Wifi!?" - Louis Rossmann

Update your oven, your microwave, your wife and your unborn first child. DO NOT power off your unborn first child while the update is running. May cause severe issues like dyslexia, memory loss, narcolepsy, antivaxxism, and bob.

@@puerlatinophilus3037 What do you mean “bob”? The rest of the symptoms I understand, but “bob”? Maybe a reference to Microsoft Bob?

@@jagarcogheart Its hilarious how gullible Rossmann is, he doesnt even bother to look stuff up, just rants. He completely killed his channel - now its just proud boys and incels. FYI it was a COMBINATION oven, a normal fan forced in wall oven boosted by microwave and grill. Theyre fairly complicated to program (even for me who has been using one for 25+ years), and that particular oven has an app that allows you to use pre-programmed memories with decent descriptions and recipes, and to start the oven preheat remotely among other things. While you dont seem to have them in the US they're common in civilised countries. While it wouldn't be my choice to have it phoning home all the time, there are certainly a lot of valid reasons for it to have remote control, and if you put 2 minutes research in (which Rossmann never does before a rant) you would know it wasnt a microwave.

@@jean-lucpicard8186 See? Noone cares about dyslexia, memory loss, narcolepsy, and antivaxxism.

Maybe it died of shock that it actually got one?!

oh lol. i guess it could be possible to reflash it via recovery mode or some fancy pc applications for flashing

Although I agree with your point...wtf we're you trying to run bloated winturd in 2022...on spinning rust? Seriously. Ssds have BEEN low cost enough for easily more than 3 years now even at the 256GB size for a decent (not even needing to be highest end like a Samsung 8## pro sata ssd) ssd. Trying to run winturd 11 on spinning rust is like expecting pedo creepy ghosthand-shaking Biden to all of a sudden become intelligent and not beyond senile. Get real

I believe this was also a problem with windows 10, just not a constant one. I had that problem consistently before I switched to an SSD

@@shoot646 I agree here, I’m on windows 11 but it’s installed on an m.2 (970 Evo) Zero problems

@Torvaltz cause his laptop had a perfectly working 1 TB hdd 😬

@@LowGodd bro 970 evo is literally over powered with the MLC instead of TLC

I actually think it has become worse.

What makes YLOD worse is that sometimes the repair involves replacing a part that happens to cause the drive keys to change if replaced which means the hard drive can't be decrypted which means all saved games and purchases no longer on the store are just gone. That happened to me. The irony is that modders and pirates can decrypt their drives if they extract these keys before the YLOD. In other words only paying customers were screwed over by a feature likely designed to avoid piracy. The fact that also me and Microsoft consoles created since then likewise have encrypted drives does not make me feel any better.

@@Elliandr YLOD is mostly caused by a dead GPU (most common cause) or dead NEC tokins, both i dont think are married to the board, not sure though.

Wow! I saw it but didn't notice that's what he'd done. Sounds like the editor's really good at Adobe Aftereffects! Nice spotting!

you are a good man

@@HollowVortex81 well with 10 you can't just pick it, you get whatever else MS is pushing out at the same time. Unless you are a business or doing risky things, even the 0 day fixes won't affect 90% of the people. If you know what circumstance it can be exploited, just don't do that and you are fine.

Also a couple times upgrading Ubuntu my GPU driver fell over and that wasn't fun.

Wait really? That's scary

@Torvaltz It's more like the graphics card report its temperature to the system, which it uses the determine the fan speed. I have no idea if this is what happened, but if a driver causes the card to constantly report something like 0°C the system may decided that the fans aren't needed, and turn them off, or at least to slow them down. I have tried to look up which update it was, but I can't find much about it. :/

how did a software issue turns hardware...

Brought a GPU from work and it worked well 😶

Why do you have Windows 11 lol? Do you hate yourself? Did you get your PC as a gift from someone and that someone hates you? :D

Have you tried other monitors? If yes: Try booting into Windows PE. Might have an option to revert update. Or you could go into Safe Mode. But that would require working blind lol 😂 Alternatively, if you have another pc, transfer your files over, wipe the disk and do a fresh install.
