unicorndukeMy computer appears to work properly now!
And even faster than it had a month ago.
About two weeks ago, it was running 100% disk all the time, just really awful. Turns out there was an update it was downloading that was very big. But somehow it botched the download and once I tried installing the update, it didn't work. It ran worse.
So I did the thing that I can't remember the name of, but I rolled back the update. Then it worked much better for about 2 hours. Then it started downloading again. So I let it run and run and mostly didn't use it for a while and let it download. Then the day after my second covid shot, I started the update going. It ran from 8am to 3pm to install.
Still was having issues. Turns out there was two more freaking updates that needed to download and install and once I just let that all happen, my computer is finally running at normal disk and normal speeds and honestly a little bit faster than it had been.
why are computers like this.

That's a deficiency of the implementation, not an inherent requirement of automatic updates.
