Remote desktop and updates

When you use your Windows box exclusively over Remote Desktop, it doesn't seem to care much that you're logged in when updates come. Instead of pestering you about installing them, it just reboots. So sometimes I come in in the morning and my session is gone.

Aspects

There are all these shows and movies that depict a future timeline, and they all try to show computers as being futuristic while completely missing the mark[0].

That's fine. One thing that I find absolutely remarkable about them all, though, is that they almost invariably use a 4:3 aspect ratio for their screens. Even if they have wide-ass screens, they are often still composed of 4:3 screens. Even if they DIDN'T EVEN USE REAL SCREENS for them.

These days, 4:3 screens are becoming rare. Everyone's all 16:9 or 16:10, with 16:9 seeming to be becoming the more common one, even on computers where 16:10 has generally been the more common widescreen format.

[0] I assume. Some of these still happen in the future, so maybe 4:3 will become popular again. I would be perfectly happy to see 1:1. Square things make me happy. Remember when non-square pixels were particularly common?
