...and it was pretty smooth. No surprises, no problems, and some nice enhancements.
(just thought I'd mention it)

I'm practising being smug after all the Windows 10 update bashing.
Which I may have contributed to a bit.
...except now I just feel wan and hollow inside.

That's normal for anyone who just bought an apple product and expected it to live up to the hype.  But hey, it looks cool. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Are you crazy?
Next you'll be telling me to wear a helmet while I'm riding, and to do up my seat belt, and not to eat that thing on the fridge that I swear has turned sentient and moves around in the fridge at night.
Emergency bootable recovery USB! phhhpt!

My experience as well.

Shut up Maunder.
It's 03:00, I've had a six pack of Stella Artois and on to my fourth double Bundy OP.
Flicking through the channels finding nothing on and shooting tge sh*t with my son while he's drinking with me.
Get back to telling me how sh*t Windows 10 is.

Funny you should pop up. I was just thinking about a big chunk of code I spent a week rewriting. We call it the Australian Code. It started, no joke, because of you.
WAAAAYYyyyyyyyy back we had an issue with swearing. I know - it's hard to believe, eh? So I put in a filter. And you broke it. So I put in a better one. And you broke it. Then I put in an even better one that fixed it and that's when you really started swearing and getting angry. To this day I think it's the first and only time I've seen you go from angry to f***-this-I'm-leaving angry. I actually felt really bad about that.
So the code is still there. It's never been triggered. Not that particular bit. You've triggered lots of other bits in that code, and worked around it enough times that we just now grin each time. It's full of good memories, that code.
So thank you.
cheers

Thanks for the challenge. Forgot what else I wrote in my 4 other attempts at posting.

You do realize that when the Bundy runs out he'll do his best to break it, don't you?

Like a red rag to a bull - you are going to have to open up a whole new forum, the MMChallenge. You will however have to wait till the hangover wears off this morning.

Didn't get to bed until after 04:00, got up just after 09:30 to bring the shopping in and then went back to be for an hour trying to sleep.
The head ain't half as bad as I thought it would be, I' lethargic as f*** though. About 3 hours until GWS kick off and a couple of hours later Canberra go at it. Will see how the alcohol feels then.

I enjoyed watching the Swan annihilate Geelong yesterday afternoon, then passed out about 10pm I'm getting old and I don't like it.
I expect to enjoy watching GWS scrape home this afternoon.

So are you back in Oz yet or do the games make it to Singapore?
I was up drinking with my son. Can't remember what we were doing at that time. I finished the League and the AFL, then watched a bit of TV, then an episode of Intelligence then I just think we stayed laughing at stuff that I'm sure wasn't in the least bit funny but had me laughing so hard I struggled to sit in my chair.

Wait, you actually put a hit counter on the individual segments of the MM Filter?  
Seriously through, have any of them overflowed an int64 yet?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Oh crap!
I just received my new Mac Mini 2.6ghz 8GB i5 this past monday and it has El Capitan on it for my new venture into iOS iPhone dev.
First Mac EVER. As a PC user I had heard only a bit about Mac OS so I just thought, "Okay, good, I got El Capitan and that's relatively new, right?"
Well, I guess I was wrong.
And this Mac Mini ain't so fast already, let me tell you.
Oh boy...

You weren't very wrong. El Capitan is a year old. Recently Apple has updated OS X (now called macOS) every year. Despite Apple's marketing propaganda, every year its usually a mild evolution not a revolution. From what I can tell, this year's update is no different. A handful of new features, some useful - some not.
That being said, I'll guess your Mac Mini will be fine. Might even speed up... just give it 20-30 minutes after the update to rebuild its caches and indexes.
