It'd be interesting to apply a Hilbert curve [0] to the Earth with the PGP Word List, with the even/odd list being used for each hemisphere, or used normally as a check. [1]

Updates are officially required. [2]
Each release makes it more difficult to positively force WU to fail with user-facing tools. So now, in 2022, after 13 major releases with different UIs, waasmedic logic, and policy effects, when I need to keep a computer online, I don't consider the options that I've found to have failed before (where failure is equal to rebooting). I kill the components of WU, repairs to WU, and repairs to the tools that repair WU.
As a result, or as a consequence, you decide, I usually don't get updates again for a long while.

With partial countermeasures, like disabling the Windows Update service, several other services (Windows Update Medic (WaasMedic) and Update Orchestrator (usosvc)) and scheduled tasks will do a variety of things silently to make WU active again. It may try to update at strange times after making those repairs. Sometimes, it grabs new firmware for OEM laptops and installs that during the reboot. That's not comforting in the slightest.
If you delete all the associated scheduled tasks and manually disable all of those services, you can get a few months, maybe a year or five of uptime.
I'd love a multi-billion line spreadsheet that just contains videoIDs, titles, channel names, and descriptions from all of YouTube.
These Amazon reviews from 2002 show an interesting perspective on compatibility:

Every video posted is subjected, instantly, to what I assume are automated comments and, in my opinion, unusual like/dislike ratios. The comments originate from a wide variety of accounts of varying ages, usually with no published video or text, following channels of international brands and small entities so obscure that I wouldn't doubt they were chosen at random. The content is generally support for the current President. "[US Flag Emoji]" features prominently. In my experience, total comment activity dropped off after the last election. It looks like comments are disabled on recent videos.
So, if I had to guess, this site grapples with the removal of the accounts that would normally make those comments, and all of their associated likes and dislikes. It would be interesting to follow up on every comment, checking whether the account was changed or deleted after those comments.

In my experience, some of the earliest types in this category (12 years ago?) had LED flashlights and a charging circuit (and an amusing quirk where shining a laser at the status LEDs would trigger the flashlight.)
Individual stories of re-using manufactured but unneeded cells from other products probably account for some of this.
I was under the impression that it was required to report all income, including criminal income.
