Well, that's a collection of brutes I don't want to meet after a Saturday night pissup.

That's probably valid for your rugby players as well.

You have a good point!

Nothing wrong in liking another country anthem. (as much as it is tacky, the Kate Smith interpretation of God Bless America is kinda good)
I like the Canadian one.
It was originally in French (it was a french canadian patriotic song) , it's mostly sung in the 2 official languages.
It's also sometimes sung in both languages at some sport events, even in the USA, out of respect.

So I bought a nice new laptop (i9, 8 cores, 16 threads, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, etc) and in the last week Windows has updated numerous times, installing BS like Solitaire games, Disney+, etc.
And every time, it reboots. OK, maybe rebooting in the middle of the night is OK, but I just got home (4:45 PM) from running an errand and it rebooted, of course all my VS projects closed, SSMS closed, etc.
I don't want to install a Windows Update blocker, but MickeySoft leaves me no choice - I want to pick up from where I left off, whether it's the next morning or an hour later during the work day.
And I don't want all those BS Play Store Apps it seems to think I want!
So f*** it, blocker installed. I'll do updates on "my schedule."

Interesting. Neither my Win10 desktop, or my Win 11 Surface do that - they update what is "needed" but don't install Store apps.
And to the bets of my knowledge I haven't changed any settings to do that ...

I know how to make it go away (irreversible) but no more interruptions.

I have not been able to run Windows on 32MB since NT 4.0.
Swap file inferno? 😁

I just purchased a new Dell XPS 17 (64G RAM, I9 processor, 1TB SSD). Won't arrive for a few weeks, so I am interested in hearing more comments on Win11 upgrade.
It comes with Win10 installed, but includes a Win11 license as well.
It might be I wait on that upgrade and stay with Win10 a bit longer...

I use Windows 10 Pro, and have never seen installation of unwanted MS Store apps. I can imagine MS doing this for Windows Home (AKA Beta Edition), but not for Windows Pro.

Sounds like Windows Home. Windows Pro doesn't do this.
