I’ve been around for a while and this is the first time I’m seeing something like this. I’m wondering if I picked up something nasty or if this is something that other people are seeing.

  • That’s good. It’s still annoying, but as more people used to this sort of behavior come onboard Linux, behaviors like this are going to inevitably creep in. And, options are good; I object only to opt-out.

    It doesn’t affect me, anyway, but I’m still going to have a cow the day my dad calls and tells me he said “yes” to an upgrade dialog and now his computer won’t work, and I have to waste my time dealing with this bullshit at an inconvenient time.
