Speaking of computers commanding us ... a few years ago, I was visiting a friend's parents (practicing dentists). They told me in horror how Microsoft forcefully upgraded their work machines to Windows 10 overnight. And one of their applications stopped working due to the upgrade.

That's the first time I learnt that Windows was using that approach (I'm blissfully away from Windows; I dwell in the Linux world.) It was painful to watch them ask "how come this machine does such a big task [upgrade] forcefully?"
