Let’s put it this way. Apparently the issue:
…I think it’s pretty safe to say Microsoft is bullshitting. No, not even lying - bullshitting, showing complete disregard for truth value.
You’re describing pretty much every used PC in existence. It’s hard not to come to the conclusion that there is no issue and that one guy’s SSD just failed like they do
Yeah according to another post in this very community, a third party ran tests and couldn't replicate the issue.
and that one guy’s SSD just failed like they do
As mentioned in the article, “others have also encountered the same issue”.
It’s hard not to come to the conclusion that there is no issue
This assumption would not explain the surge of complains about it.
It's not our fault, it's all of you guyses faults!

One of many books that I'm working on behind the scenes is a programming book that is going to be for the free basic programming language, but is also intended to be a history of computing and a broader computer science course. One of the recurring jokes I intend to put into the computer history is "that would be the only time Microsoft did something sketchy"
Their very first action ever was to announce that they had an Altair compatible basic ready to go. And it turns out that even that was a complete lie. They only bothered actually making the basic interpreter once it became obvious there was demand based on the feedback from the magazine letter.
