The way you "control" your erection is to think sexy thoughts or think unsexy thoughts (and good luck trying to do the latter if Scarlett Johansson is in front of you). You're not directly controlling it; as the GP says you're indirectly controlling it.
Not only have Seagate chained themselves to the declining HDD market, apparently happy with their inevitable fate of oblivion, but they can't even get that right! Their HDDs are totally crap as well.
Community-driven? You've gotta be joking. Mozilla has been saying "go fuck yourself" to everyone in the community who doesn't agree with them now for years. They may sometimes do something the community likes (not often) but they are certainly not driven by the community.
Google Hangouts is pretty dodgy as well, with Google tinkering about with it all the time (how the hell do you find anyone? there's no normal contacts list and when you search you are basically searching ALL of Google Hangouts), and I also don't like the fact that you have to run it from a web browser. I'm on a PC and I don't permanently have a web browser open (yeah you can run the Hangouts app in Chrome but that's still technically keeping an invisible web browser running. It also bizarrely closes itself down after a period of time - I actually had to write a program to keep checking for chrome.exe and starting it up if it wasn't running!)
I'd never heard of Facetime. Not surprising as it's Apple-only. No good for anyone else.
Skype for Business is an unbelievably shitty steaming pile of dinosaur faeces. I think Lync actually got WORSE when MS rebranded it. It actually throws up an error message on boot if Outlook is booted at the same time about some file being unavailable. At my business we just ditched it and use Skype instead.
I'm more than happy to keep GWX control panel in monitor mode in case MS somehow sneak their Win10 shit back on my system. So quite the opposite actually.
I have just the opposite problem. There are probably 4 major pieces of software stopping me switching to Linux for my main machine. In order of importance: - Visual Studio - IIS - SQL Server - MS Office
I can just about get away with replacing office with LibreOffice (although I'd have to use the horrible Outlook Web Access for email), and possibly replacing SQL Server with Postgres (though convincing my company that we should do that is next to impossible), but Linux has nothing like IIS. No decent GUI for a web server and the second something went wrong people would be saying "Why don't you have an event log? What's your IIS setup?" And of course Visual Studio. Just doesn't exist on Linux. As someone who mostly develops C#/.NET web applications, this is critical.
I installed GWX control panel, and I actually disabled the wuauserv service. It only gets enabled if/when I decide to check for updates and install, and I have a long list of "verboten" updates that will never get installed, not to mention I carefully check each new update available.
Worked so far. No dumbass Win10 nagging or background downloading.
The trouble with Debian (and why I switched to Mint) is that you either choose between an UNSTABLE operating system (that's their description, not mine), or old software. Sometimes they backport popular software but generally it's crappy and old. And trying to install newer software by adding repos gets really messy fast. You need to be a Linux enthusiast to do it and even I get bored as fuck with figuring it out.
Oh and no I'm not gonna compile everything either. I have better things to do with my time.
The time I really remember this biting was when GIMP 2.8 was released with single-window mode. Install on Windows was no problem, but on Debian? The stable repos had 2.6 but god help you if you wanted 2.8. It was crap.

You don't get the start menu back. You get a god-awful replacement which is completely different (the clue's in the subtle change in terminology from Win7's "All Programs" to Win10's "All Apps").
It is flush with Metro tiles which are fugly and they *move* all the time which is really distracting. But the worst thing is, it behaves differently. You can't organize your programs anymore into folders and links based on the file system like you could with the old start menu. No, it's just a big list of "apps" now which don't correspond to the file system at all.
Out of interest, do you develop any.NET stuff for a living, or have need of Visual Studio, IIS, or SQL Server? If so, how do you fulfil that requirement in Linux?

Nothing stops. Nothing... or you will do the hardest time there is. No more protection from the guards. I'll pull you out of that one-bunk Hilton and cast you down with the Sodomites. You'll think you've been fucked by a train! And the library? Gone... sealed off, brick-by-brick. We'll have us a little book barbecue in the yard. They'll see the flames for miles. We'll dance around it like wild Injuns! You understand me? Catching my drift?... Or am I being obtuse?
And none of the Muslims I know seem remotely interested in killing me
I'm guessing you're living in the US. Muslims are a tiny minority in the US. As their numbers increase, they get bolder and bolder. Below 2%, Muslims generally act peacefully because they know they couldn't fucking well get away with anything else. Try living as a non-Muslim in Pakistan for a while and report back.

You send a trim, fit Victoria's Secret model back to 17th century Morocco and she would blow their minds.
Or, for that matter, today's Morocco.

There's a fairly-curvy model out there who did a bunch of ads pushing back on fat shaming, claiming she's proud to be fat. SHE'S HAWT.
Pics or she doesn't exist. Or her name.

Unfortunately, their space station is about to explode as soon as it goes over a civilian population.

I remember the days when the Pentium was the latest and greatest CPU, you insensitive clod!
Now I can get back to using Windows 7 without wondering every day whether MS has tried to backdoor Windows 10 onto my machine.

I'll never fit that in my pocket. I bet Apple will get it much thinner.

I never left Windows 7. Download and run (in monitor mode) GWX control panel to really lock out the Windows 10 downgrade.
OK, same as me. As far as I'm concerned, Muslim areas are mostly shitholes. If you want to live in Luton or Tower Hamlets, whatever. I don't.
