Is it me or has Apple been going a little crazy with software updates lately? It started with iOS 13 in September, and as of tonight we’re up to iOS 13.2.2. I know all these fixes, big and small, are supposed to keep everything running smoothly, so I try my best to be more like this:
Instead of this:
However, after taking nearly 20 minutes for a “mini-update,” I was considerably cranky until I remembered this Eddie Izzard routine from his live show at the Madison Square Garden in 2011. Not all that much has changed!

I’m lazy with my updates so I’m still on 12-point-something, and I’ll probably stay here for a while more because my father likes to read up on all the small updates and he keeps reading about bugs still present, so he’s warning us all to hold off until things are resolved. My phone is glitchy enough without new bugs.

I swear with each new update there’s definitely more glitches. But then they give you these dire warnings that if you don’t do the update by such and such a date you’ll lose stuff. Grrr.🤷🏻♀️😡

Love Izzard!
I don’t have anything Apple, and usually don’t bother with most updates. Windows tends to update automatically anyway, and just says when it has. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

He’s brilliant! I’m hoping one of his shows on his Wunderbar tour gets uploaded to YouTube at some point.

Having quite literally switched to iPhone for the first time in about 6 years, I’m enjoying most aspects of moving away from Android. I’ll let you know if I run into any issues or similar problems with updates.

I was a programmer, project manager thru program director at the US Department of State as a contractor for over 25 years. The reason there are so many correction updates, bug fixes, etc., is because they don’t throughly test the software before it’s released. They just want to get it out the door as fast as possible so people will start to use it as soon as possible!
