"Blizzard spoke thus; Thou shalt not BM. And the players replied Nay, I shall Play my hand with Lethal already on the board. And so Blizzard sent unto them this Brawl of Yogg, As a lesson for their sins of Pride and Greed, for he is the Prophet of Madness and RNG. On that day, the tavern descended into an era of chaos and darkness, until the weekend passed and everyone forgot all about it. Amen. Book of SMOrc, Verse 20, Chapter 4." - Feam T
Yeah AFAIK (and I know little) it isn't pretty but the performance is alright. Then again I can't say I'm running taxing games using OpenGL so I'll take your word for it. Still, I think that most games should be perfectly able to use OpenGL or something built on top of it.
Anyway, I'm also suffering from the upgrade messages but so far they only concern W8.1 (currently on 8.0). It doesn't happen as frequently as on your side, but still multiple times a week.

********'s a pretty good fertilizer

Huh? I've only gotten them twice, total. Because each time I get them I dedicate like an hour to hunt down all the potential **** and remove it.
"I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache†and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege.

It's been like, a week since the update message has popped up for me.
I just kinda click the X in the top right and that seems to satiate it for a while. I've done nothing other than that.

Thank you to jhoijhoi for the sig, and all the dividers in the guide.

Anything that takes up unnecessary space and runs in the background is a big nono for me. On all my devices (phone, tablet and PC). Especially when it even downloads the W10 update without asking you. That's a ~4GB download, and I'm currently pretty short on space on my SSD.
"I saw [Twilight: Eclipse] in theaters with a girl I was dating at the time. I spent more time staring at my toes and wiggling them than I did watching this abomination. When Edward proposed to Blank Face, I finally looked up with a revelation.
I blurted out loud, in a dead silent theater full of teenage girls on opening night "Wait a minute, Edward has no blood flow. How does he get an erection?" I heard several men laughing, and had several girls turn and stare at me.
I did not get laid that night." - Berengier817

So, a bit of preface as to why I'm posting this thread: I recently updated my Windows 7 installation (I only do this every couple of months for a variety of reasons) and I found the W10 update nagging me in the notification area. The very same update I uninstalled (KB3035583 in Uninstall a Program -> View Installed Updates) and told Windows update to ignore (they call it "Hide") for future updates.
So I decided to go look up some details to see what was going on.
Here are a few snippets from the article:
"As best I can tell, KB 3035583 was modified, fortified, and re-released nine times in 2015."
"Last October, Windows honcho Terry Myerson promised: "You can specify that you no longer want to receive notifications of the Windows 10 upgrade through the Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 settings pages.""
Nope, no such settings. Microsoft is lying yet again.
"Beginning about a month ago the KB3035583 update started installing a new background task -- beyond the ones previous versions already installed -- that resets the AllowOSUpgrade value to 1 (enabled) twice a day."
And before you ask, no, Microsoft is not providing the option to say "No" when it "asks" the user about updating to W10. The options are literally "Now" and "Later" (with various examples of "Later", some as crazy as "Tonight").
And sometimes it just installs Windows 10 without asking, because **** you.
TL;DR: Microsoft is using just about every dirty trick in the book trying to push users to update to Windows 10. They even install processes that run in the background to re-enable update settings that you disable.
