Almost all the evidence that I've had about buggy Windows 10 is anecdotal; I really do not know if it is buggier than earlier version, or whether the bugs are simply better publicized.
I must admit that I've never had any serious problems with Windows 10 - neither on the computers we have at home nor on my work computer. OTOH, I do know people who aren't as lucky; at least one person I know had his computer trashed by a bad update. At least he had a recent backup of his stuff...

I never had problems with drivers after an update until windows 10.
I never had problems with auto-changed configuration after an update until Android and Windows 10
Beyond that... I have not had big problems as described by others with lost data or similar (yet)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I don't have issues with Windows 10 *bugs*. I have issues with Windows 10 update procedures by design. I'll cite two "features" that should be filed under "Oh $hit, that was dumb":
- forced reboots. Eventually Microsoft relented on this.
- default update of drivers. Seemed like a good idea, but every laptop manufacturer typically
has their own custom set. Why in God's good name would you default to "give them what we have"
when in fact, drivers are the single weakest link in the Windows OS?
Of course, you go to MS media events, and they'll double down on their bad decisions. No, Windows 10 update issues are not anecdotal. My wife had a perfectly functioning laptop until MS pushed out their mandatory OS update. It's never been the same.

Paper size that's rougher than Peel(8)
Remember: we're "themed" this week, so hopefully tomorrow's should have a fair range of possible directions to go in.

No comment - the first of the week starts the theme, so it's a "standard clue" that sets the theme from the solution.

Nice clue, but I would never get this without cheating. So I cheated

It's obscure, but I thought it fitted the Lounge quite well!

As I voted to keep the themed clues I should probably take part...
Elephant
Anagram of "than Peel", and is apparently a paper size[^]. Never heard of it before, but the anagram was obvious enough to get the solution.
So is everyone looking forward to a week of "paper size" solutions?! As surely that is the only possible theme here

You are up tomorrow!
Paper sizes (A4, A3, ...), Animals, Swearword substitutes, ... loads of ways you could go!

Yep, I will probably go for the broader of the options...
So, shall I specify the theme when I post, or should I just copy in today's clue to help identify the theme?

Not unless it involves Harry Potter ...

The old one just isn't up to the task anymore.
I need a new 10" tablet but there's a ton of them out there and I need some help to filter out the dross. (stupid construction, bloatware, or whatever happens to trigger you)
So please tell me, not what to get. But rather what not to get. And Why.
|

|

It depends on your needs, if you need a good screen don't buy a cheap tablet.
Also what OS do you want, if it's IOS the choice is simple 
Here is an overview of tablets: https://www.slant.co/tags/tablets[^]

Nah, Apple is on my what not to get list, my current tablet is one. I'm not doing that again.
