It was going very well and the doctor was well pleased, but I was wasting away eating the cardboard and water. Down to 82kg at 188cm, like an anorexic AIDS victim. Been eating and drinking everything for the past few months but no lollies, chocolates, ice cream etc. Will have to go back to being good for a while though I'd like to find a middle ground. I can't just eat 3 meals a day, my metabolism is still to good for that but having to wait 2 hours for a blood check seems to dictate that's all you can do.

Is lip service just regular Botox injections?

That's a swell quip, although it bags the question as to whether, as it passes through the syringe needle, if its called aflotoxin or just an injection.

No - lip service is what girlfriends will do until they have a wedding ring.
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

Why don't I ever get visited by this magical Win10 fairy? I've been using Win10 on multiple machines since it was released and have never had a serious issue*. I feel so left out.
The worst I have had is my PC updated and rebooted overnight. When I relaunched my browser it did not reopen my last tabs. I was devastated but after much counseling, I recovered.

It only happens to people using their machine for work,
like people that drive 4WD's and never get off the tarmac - they never break their axle's etc.

When I arrived home last night, the only thing the Win10 fairy did for me was to shut my programs down and give me a new FireFox version.

No, but it seems like FF has a new build every week; so when I opened it up, I got version 57.0. I guess the FF Fairy visited too.

This happened to me the other morning...
You're in a dark cave looking out over a deserted beach...nevermind, just a 'scheduled' restart!
VS restarted the last two projects I had open, good.
Excel also restarted the half-dozen spreadsheets I had open (in recovery mode)...also good.
Multiple browser windows also opened, all to the home page...not great, but not that important either. 
SSMS launches and waits for connection selection, but of course, none of the tabs I had open the previous night recovered...nothing lost really, but annoying to get back to where I was. 
Notepad apparently has no ability to recover unsaved files...my scratch areas/notes from the previous day are just gone!...again, not terribly important by annoying nonetheless. 
So, while I'm thankful that most applications I use can recover from these unattended restarts, it still costs me time and effort when I'm caught off guard. 
I have tried multiple 'fixes' to prevent unattended restarts, but none have worked so far. I'll just have to be more diligent to make sure not to leave anything open/unsaved overnight that I can't stand to lose.

Instead of using Notepad, try Notepad++
I like it much better and when things go wrong, when I restart Notepad++, I seldom have lost anything.

Booted up to the dreaded "don't turn off your computer, we are busy screwing it up" message. This was followed up by a large representation of the command prompt... eg: black screen. Nothing worked but task manager, who was not very busy.
After 3 reboots and a copious amount of 4 letter words, it is (almost) back to normal. Until we meet again. Fortunately, virtual machines are easy to back up. But then MS would just update it again.
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. <sigh>

Thanks, I actually run Windows only via VM, main OS is Mint (derivative of Ubuntu).
Clients still mostly W7, which isn't much better (if at all).
