My "fuck this" moment came about 7y ago when Microsoft started forcing reboots that couldn't be disabled even with group policy. I think I lost work 2 or 3 times because I'd stayed up late working and eventually just fell into bed without saving everything and shutting the machine down. I woke up to a login screen the next morning and said "oh fuck this" the second or third time it happened.

    The most shameful thing is that many applications that would fail to come back with all their state after restart were Microsoft's own programs like Sql Server Management Studio -- that one does better now, but well over a decade too late.
