Apple To Make macOS Sierra Available As Automatic Download Beginning Today (loopinsight.com)
Remember how Microsoft was pushing Windows 10 updates to your computers? That surely made a lot of people furious. Today, Apple told The Loop that it will also begin automatic download of its latest desktop operating system update, macOS Sierra on Macs that are compatible with the new software -- provided, automatic downloads are switched on and the Mac has enough storage space. From the report: t's important to note that this is not an automatic installer -- this process will only download the update in the background, and then alert you that it is available to install. You can choose to install it when its convenient. You can also choose to ignore the update. [...] Of course, you can manually delete the download if you don't wish to upgrade, and you can choose to manually download the update from the App Store at any time.

of course... but what does that have to do with the macOS update that you can choose to ignore? surely you aren't baiting me or conflating clearly different approaches to a situation, right?
you know what does make a lot of people furious, bullshit summaries that try to bait people, exactly like this summary.
Anons need not reply. Questions end with a question mark.
At least you can upgrade your Mac. Microsoft pushed out the Windows 10 Anniversary Update over the weekend and it wouldn't install because the installer thinks my SSD was a USB memory stick.
I miss my Mac. *sigh*
To add to that, those M$ SOBs went as far as switching the order of the buttons to make you press it by mistake! http://fud.community.services....
