I just came back to my computer expecting to find: an Arduino IDE session, six Excel spreadsheets, various web pages pointing to the local Python web server that was running in a VS Code session alongside the five web pages that I was working on, and all the rest just as I left them... Not unreasonable I think!
What I actually find is that the system has been rebooted, and hidden away in an information log I find that "Windows successfully installed the following update: 2024-04..." at 5/13/2024 02:07:39
Idiots!
And someone asked if MS bashing was allowed - in my mind it is obligatory.

It actually de-hibernates my computer, installs updates and then leaves it running just to waste electricity and annoy me ...
Or worse, de-hibernates my computer, tries to shut down to install updates but finds a app - normally an MS app - that won't close so it leaves it running having not updated until I get up in the morning

My tactic was to take the shell off and make them a little lighter and quicker. But instead they became more sluggish.

And sluggardly as well, no doubt.

A snail without a shell is like a horse without a jockey.

If you have an A4 scanner available, scan the document in two overlapping parts and then use something like Hugin to stitch them together
(Just Google for Hugin)
