And I don't give a sh*t, if there's a sporadically triggered corruption here or an exceptionally occuring kernel panic there.
That's the price you pay when dealing with such huge and crucial components and it's not something that in the end you really can avoid. It's the people like darkbasic, Lemonzest, frantaylor, etc. who don't understand or think about it.
Their heads explode immediately when seeing things like this and they have to assume it's something that occurs every single time they move their mouse for more than two pixels.

heyy Michael, not embarrased enough?
I mean, come on. This 'bug' is as harmless as it can be. You have to do immensly stupid stuff to get hit by it. It is so common that 2 people out of millions of systems hit it.
and you not only posted a very 'dramatic' idiotic story - you are now advertising it.
Shouldn't you.. you know... prepare an apology or something like that?
