    Devils advocate time: Windows does this because users are stupid and will never update their PCs if they don’t have to. I’ve met too many people who never update their tech. Operating systems and the software they run is far too complex to be 100% secure so we mitigate that by updates. They are a necessity. The vulnerability responsible for EternalBlue was patched and pushed with a windows update before the ransomware attack, how many users ignored it? Windows is so annoying with its updates because it has to be.




  • I’d say with the abundance of solar panels today, charging EV’s wouldn’t be that problematic. Gasoline would be hard to get. Bio diesel would be a good alternative but im not sure new vehicles would play nice with it so like pre 2000s diesels would be good. Wood gas is an option but again, would it work on modern cars? EV’s seem the easiest to fuel to me in a complete apocalypse. Thoughts?
