Lol just recently Microslop broke the shutdown function.

I click start, I click shutdown, it shuts down. So unless you are talking about some obscure shit that no one really uses, that's a lie.

Just because it doesn't happen to you specifically it doesn't mean it's not true.

It was literally reported on by tech news outlets. You can get your head out of the sand, it is possible, I believe in you.

And just because it happens to a couple of users, doesn't mean it is true for the entire userbase.

It is a small feature used by a handful of users. It does not affect anyone else.

If this happened on Linux it wouldn't get reported on. But because of the ginormous userbase of Windows, they do.
