I can't imagine anyone who goes through this, and the other rather outrageous things Windows forces upon people, not wanting to find alternatives, whether they're running a different OS and running Windows-only software in VMs, or running Windows 10...

The idea that I can own a computer and could pay good money for a license for the OS but have no control over whether it gets rebooted is just... I don't know. I just can't even imagine tolerating it.

Then again, I'll likely never have a new car because too much of the functionality is out of the control of the actual owners.
