The painful thing of it is, when energy is already low, and motivation only comes in short, unpredictable bursts that can crumble under the light brush of frustration, you need to be ready to go when inspiration strikes.
When you get an idea for something small and simple that could help you make real progress and you actually manage to immediately launch into action, well, discovering that your computer suddenly won't connect to the internet until after you complete a Windows Update is like cold water on the fading embers of your inner fire.
I'm grateful that many tech companies are willing to handle necessary updates without too much intercession for me. But when I need to send a message, make a call, look up a term, find contact information, or take a note, later isn't good enough. Are all the updates absolutely necessary right when I'm ready to use my device? I really would like for the companies to find a way for their products to be ready when they're needed, every time. This would go a long way to making them as accessible for those who need the support to manage their regular day-to-day as it is for those who use the support to get ahead of the pack.
