I have a MacBook for work and I'm not sure it has ever updated overnight like it said it was gonna. It's quite annoying because OS X updates (or my work's custom stuff? Idk) are so, so bad. Big, focus grabbing prompts popping up to say I need to update, when I agree to do it, it has to download too (every other system I use just downloads automatically and only prompts about the restart), and it is the slowest OS update to boot!

Same. For me it's that the operating system seems afraid to close applications. "I can't reboot because you haven't accepted the xcode TOS, and I don't know how to just close the program".

Coming from a Linux background, I expect my OS to be comfortable giving programs a few seconds warning, and then brutally killing anything that's still running.
