Upgraded my laptop from 8.1 to 10... And nothing changed.
Upgraded my desktop from 7 to 10... My BSOD problems vanished, and it generally feels a little faster and more stable. On the other hand, it likes to shuffle windows between monitors when I turn on the connected TV, often comes up out of hibernate at random times of the day or night (Even though I turned off wake-on-LAN), and likes to pop up web search results instead of applications when I hit the start key and type a few letters of an application name.
But in terms of things exploding and eating all of my data... Nope, went nice and smoothly. Considering Microsoft's track record with OS updates, I was actually fairly impressed.

The only issues I've had with Win10 are from third-party idiots vendors testing in production. (I'm looking at you, NVidia).
I've also had to help people who had Win10 and were having crashes and found that ALL of them were running programs written for Windows 98/ME! I told them to wait for the singularity, to which one suggested defragging the keyboard! ( )
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

De-fragging the keyboard isn't that stupid an idea.
If you turn the average keyboard upside down and give it a good shake, it's revolting what fragments fall out...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

My MSI based home system did not "like" Windows 10. Even with a clean install, after a few boots, it would claim the disk was corrupted and go to the repair menu. Yet, there, it would say everything was fine. After a few rounds of this, it would stop booting all together. I suspect there's a firmware issue with the SATA controller. (And even if not, I'm using that as an excuse to build a Skylake based system early next year.)
I went back to Windows 8.1 (which I actually like.)

Font rendering is messed up if you enable DPI scaling. There are some fixes though.

I've also been using Windows 10 for awhile now. I don't use Windows much and I thought 7 was good. So far, nothing wrong with Windows 10 for me.

Not sure of the algorithm that Google uses to decide about their personalities to doodle.
Because, as you say, you had never heard of her; me too. But, someone at Google had, and they had the time and resources to create a doodle.

A beautiful and impressive woman obviously prepared to do whatever it takes to get what she wants. Escaped from an abusive husband... I can sympathize with that but then she goes on to be married another five times. Six husbands seems excessive; she obviously had a personality flaw or some kind of PTSD from her first husband and/or made a lot of poor choices - she even became estranged from her own adopted son when he was only 12!
I don't know how she was really; everything is hearsay evidence; but she strikes me as "high maintenance". A pity about the plastic surgery later in her life. She should have stuck with her (actually very useful) scientific inventions; she appeared to have a real talent for that.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

As coincidence has it my dad was talking about her just last weekend.
He said he'd seen a movie about her (not with, but about).
We still haven't found what movie he was talking about though...

It's HEDLEY Lamarr![^]
(Sorry, just kidding with you. In Blazing Saddles, they make fun of the name Hedy Lamarr)
Anyway, I guess she wasn't very famous in your neck of the woods. I'm just curious as to why you're impressed? Because she was married SIX times?
