I don't mind that. Some music that incorporates growls or screaming can be very relaxing for me. But if I'm bored, I get nervous.

Last week I introduced you Philistines to Nyle wowing Dancing With The Stars despite being profoundly deaf. Challenge enough you may have thought but it's a fierce old competition so how might one go about challenging oneself even more? Dancing blind[^] as well, obviously! 
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

What's next?
Farting with the noseless?
It'd actually be more fun to watch.

It is a very different thing becoming deaf after a lifetime of hearing, writing, and performing music from being profoundly deaf from birth. He has never heard a note of music, not even a drum beat in his entire life. He can rely on his own internal timing for the mechanics of a dance but there is a great deal more to it at this level than simple repetition of steps. For emotional and dynamic interpretation he has no cues. He cannot, as Beethoven did, hear the music in his head or imagine what it is like because he has zero experience of volume changes, timbre, syncopation or any of the thousands of elements that we all take for granted when hearing music. He literally does not know what music is.

Can anyone explain why, as soon as Apple Update installs an update, it immediately phones home to see if there are available updates?
Is it because updates may cause other updates to be needed? Is it because Apple is so keen on updates that they want to be 100% sure you're up to date? Is it because there was an edge case 10 years ago that could only be fixed by doing a follow up check?
It's always bugged me.
cheers

I've used PSP since version 3. Corel has added nothing of use that wouldn't have been done better if they hadn't bought it out.
Hell, CorelDraw was cr@p, by comparison, and now the guys that produced that cr@p are in charge!

I stuck with V9 for ages, but... it didn't play nice with Aero under Win 7, so I reluctantly moved to X6.
And upgraded to X8 recently for a good offer from Corel (their discount structure is very odd).
But... it was so slow to load that I hadn't started using it much until today.
Bits are better than V9, bits are worse. Corel are very good at "add features, add bugs, make the UI worse" unfortunately...

Windows Update does the same thing in W10 - but thankfully, before the obligatory restart.

Apple is not the sole offender, in this.
We (as a group of more than twelve million professional computer users) need to define where the line is between update and upchuck.

That would be my guess. Windows does/did it for that reason certainly.

SOLUTION:
The customer installed Google Drive and shared the files.
WeTransfer looked the easiest and most interesting of the answers given the customer profile.
OLD QUESTION:
I do have Google drive here, but the customer doesn't.
The customer is not tech savvy and he won't spend a € on a software solution to send that file.
What free and easy-to-use software would you recommend?
Even better if we don't have to install anything...
I have thought on setting up an ftp server which would be easy for me but not easy for the customer.
What would you use/do?
Thank you very much!

Add an "Upload file" button somewhere on your website.
or choose one of these "free file hosting" sites: Google[^]

Have the customer sign up for a free Google account and *poof* - they too will have Google Drive.
If they have some paranoid Google fear - use DropBox.

Why not... let's see if he can install any software of this kind...

No need to install anything. Both Google Drive and DropBox have a web interface.
