MemberSilly protegens, you can't run away from windows update. Unless you're in a Faraday cage.

MemberOr if you alter Group Policy so windows HAS to be allowed to download and/or install updates, regardless of how important they are.

MemberStuff like this makes me want to create a Protogen OC. Those fuzzy cyborgs are just too adorable :'3

MemberProtogens running linux says "bonjour"
user 57466
MemberMovie idea: Protogen goes about their daily life, ignoring the update notification. Finally, they give in. "Ugh... Alright, just a quick little update..." They say before shutting down for the update...
Only to wake up into a far, post-apocalyptic future!

Memberprotogens are too limoted... go for synth species form vadersan, much more open to do
Carima your gal
MemberOr just run on windows vista like me, that way there isn’t any updates
Usagiki
MemberOr just make your own cybernetic species. Doesn't have to be protogen or synth. Better yet, just take your own character you have, if you have one, and cyborg them!
ProtoUncreative
MemberIf you want fuzzy cyborgs, Go for protogen.
If you want scalie cyborgs, Go for synth.
:3
Or.. Dat.

MemberAm i seriously the only person in the entire planet that knows how to press the pause updates button?
Please for the love of god don't do that, windows updates need to be installed after 30 days for a reason. Braindead tech illiterate people not updating for months is exactly how Wannacry happened. You can't keep blaming microsoft for all of your own problems.

MemberI saw a video of someone downloading and activating Windows XP on a computer this year, at least it won't get updates anymore.

MemberThis gave me a flashback to the "gardener in the dark" storyline from FreeFall (links below), where the robot people society therein is threatened by a program that practically lobotomises the robots to make them safer to have around humans
Worth reading, but a warning in advance:
to understand what's going on, you'll need to read ~1600 Garfield-size comics before it becomes the subject,
and the chapter takes ~1000 Garfield-size comics before reaching a conclusion
and the comic is still going to this day, leading to a collection of 3500+ strips
FreeFall links:
front page with latest page (spoilers!)
first page
endless scrolling version (starts on first comic and shows all comics until you reach the newest one)
And i LOVE the 90ies webdesign that loads in 0.5 seconds

MemberMy Windows 10 is update or update later, never saw a pause button.
