Appreciate the feedback, and I'm happy I'm not going senile. I guess I can understand an update adjusting power settings, but turning off system restores? That's just crazy.
As for the power settings, I just noticed that I can create my own customized plan. I'll see if the next update will leave that alone.

Where's the "Oi! Super!"?
I'm just practising my Oi-ing! Do users get notifications if you do this? Am I tagging you correctly? I'm new to shouting at people

Yes

If you want to be sure, you can click on his nickname on a message forum, you see the correct needed tag-summoning under the visible nickname (don't have to be equal, i.e. underscores are allowed in the nick, but not in the summon tag)

Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

But it only works when you type it correctly   
BTW I just realized... mouse hovering over a nick here in the forum shows you the info too.

If you are good enough at it, you'll be promoted to Chief Shouting Officer.

IS THERE A FINANCIAL INTENSIVE TO GO WITH THAT EXTRA RESPONSIBILITY?!

YES. YOU GET AN INCREMENT OF 10% TO THE SALARY OF A SHOUTING OFFICER!

Yes. And don't talk to me until you've finished cleaning my room! 
But seriously, you are CCC master around here, I don't want to steal your fun-der.
Also, I was kind of just interested in learning about the tagging mechanism, I've wondered for a while but never bothered to learn until now. It seemed like a good opportunity.

I've heard a lot about it, but haven't yet been able to see it — or to know if I can see it. Will check the video on that page. 
Some of the photos that I have seen are really amazing.

The Astronomy Picture of the Day[^] has had shots of it for the last several days. There are some great ones of it.
Unfortunately I have a hillside and trees to my NW so I won't be able to see unless I go somewhere else.

Are you sure about that? The planet also rotates.

I could misquote Galileo, but...
NW is defined in a geocentric (or at least geodetic) frame of reference, fixed relative to the earth.
If I draw a line on the ground NE/SW, the vertical plane through that line approximately* bisects the earth. giving me a NW half and an SE half.
My original comment was a light-hearted way of saying I'm too far south to see the comet.
* Don't get me started on geodesy. I've spent too many hundreds of hours battling through that jungle of intractable 3D trigonometry.

I know the feeling - I have a small mountain in the way. I could drive up it, but ... lockdown and all that ...

It should have been visible last night in Israel. I tried to see it, but it was either lost in the twilight or lost in the haze close to the horizon. It should be higher in the sky tonight, so I'll try again.
