it should automatically shut down after applying the updates
Okay, that part it does for me though. That's extra annoying for you then.
apply everything that is possible, then restart and apply the remainder
Yeah on one hand I get the concept, on the other macOS and Linux manage without, and I don't really remember older Windows doing this either, so I wonder if there is a real reason why it's needed, or they just engineered themselves into a bad corner...
The linked video is a bit unclear to me. The don't explain the modes well. Mostly it seems to just show heat. According to the description it's a Teledyne FLIR G620, which should be able to detect Methane and other VOCs. But it's not clear to me how we are supposed to distinguish hot rising CO2 and H2O from any potentially leaking Methane, in those pictures.

This week I heard from a network group lead of a university hospital, that they have a similar issue. Some medical devices that come with control computers can't be upgraded, because they were only certified for medical use with the specific software they came with.
They just isolate those devices as much as possible on the network, not much else to do, when there is no official support and recertification for upgrading. And of course nobody wants to spend half a million on a new imaging device when the old one is still fine except for the OS of the control computer.
Sounds like a shitty place to be, I pity those guys.
That said, if you were talking about normal client computers then it's inexcusable.
That's always so annoying, because Windows isn't my default boot entry, so I need to babysit its "totally not a reboot" update.
overstaying the terms of his visa
He arrived in the US on 30 April
Hm weird. If he's Italian, wouldn't he have an ESTA authorization under the Visa Waiver Program for 90 days usually?
He's an author and the founder of the online community LessWrong.
I first heard of him when someone on the old site recommended Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality to me.
That article is kind of shitty. I'd propose that reading the original with the help of machine translation is probably still better: https://www.srf.ch/news/international/trotz-sanktionen-schweizer-maschinen-in-russlands-waffenfabriken
Also just FYI this is 3 months old, that's why the article refers to Trump stopping weapons deliveries, that was a current development at the beginning of march.
Hm the word yacht is easy, it means Jacht :-)
I mean it's Eliezer Yudkowsky, so it has to be a joke, plus the way he upped it in the reply confirms it, but I don't really get the funny bit.
This will not be covered by the MSM.
Coverage seems pretty okay so far

Ah I found some more info from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung:
It says he didn't realize that his ESTA authorization (which you can use for multiple visits, but is only valid for two years) had lost validity.
