yikes. At least it could have been worse, I guess? Not that there are many things worse than computers deciding they're gonna do a thing and costing you all your progress... I had to change my settings to forbid my computer from automatically updating because it's old and can't handle the latest updates any more. But I still have to save often in case of the occasional random crash. Very aggravating.

I really hope my "no automatic updates" thing holds up, 'cause it will actually destroy my computer (like, shut it down completely and irreparably if I can't log in fast enough to roll it back and undo the update before it crashes) if it does update again. I've had a couple of scares where it would show me the "update" window out of the blue, but so far it hasn't actually started an update without my permission.

I kinda hate computers, but can't really get by without 'em these days and don't really want to, either. I just want them to be... better.
