Twice

Two more freezes. Dang.

Do I wait-out 1709, hope it stabilises like 1703 did, and cross my fingers this doesn't happen with every new version? Go back to 1609 because LTS? Give-up altogether and stay officially-supported with 7? Just build a whole new desktop?

Argh.

Also bought a bunch of LED light bulbs for my place... Non-dimmable, non-RGB, non-programmable, non-WiFi-enabled LED bulbs, but still :) 60W 5000K for the bathroom and a combination of 60W and 40W 2700K for the living room. Was not feeling the one 60W 3000K bulb I got though. I have no idea why I'm documenting this.

"They like to roll the dice"

Some recent update to Windows 10 1703 seemed to fix the stability issues I was experiencing, so I was confident about performing a clean installation of 1709 on my officially-unsupported-since-Windows-7 X58-based desktop... Three hard freezes in the first six hours, and I'm feeling kind of annoyed. Granted, the first one happened before applying a few remaining Windows updates, and the latter two happened while updating the still-buggy Street Fighter V, so... We'll see. Still can't justify a new build.

Also, Cuphead is a masterpiece, and I recently got to meet some of the artists and see a bunch of the original sketches and models and everything was awesome :)
