    Linux update: … click … forget about it as it runs in the background

    Windows update: … why is my system running like molasses??? … oh there’s an update … click … now it’s running even slower!!! … I’m in the middle of something!!! … I DON’T WANT TO SHUT DOWN!! … WAIT FOR THE UPDATE TO INSTALL!!! … How long is this going to take???"

    Mac update: … I wouldn’t know, I’ve never owned a Mac because I could never afford one.

      Mac update: …

      It downloads in the background, and sends you a toast notification that it’s ready to install. It gives you the option of restarting “Now”, or it’ll do it “Later Tonight” when it determines you’re not using your computer.

        So, exactly how Windows behaves? This entire meme is wrong for all three OSes and seems to just be designed to annoy everyone…

      Haha, I just had a huge list of dependency errors with my Linux PC. I’ll have to find 1 hour in my day today to figure out wtf is up this time.
