Sup dawg, I heard you like point-and-click GUIs so I put type-to-search in your start menu.
Click the account icon and then click "Sign Out".

Oh look, Hairyfeet fawning over a Microsoft product. I know it must hurt saying "Windows 8 wasn't good."
P.S: What that other guy said about the tiles. And I assume The Ribbon is now everywhere as well, which can DIAF.
And doesn't 8 default to that "hybrid shutdown" which is closer to hibernate anyway? Or is that a feature they're adding to 10.
Defaulting to Don't-Save at least avoids destroying data that you don't want to save over. And OS's these days will almost always warn you if you have programs with unsaved documents open before they shut down. I would consider saving without asking a violation of user expectations. Maybe there's an autosave feature, but that stores it to a different file, not the one you were working on. And we should all be trained to Save Early, Save Often anyway.
If you're asking "why don't desktops default to hibernate instead of shut down"...I suppose that's a matter of preference. Saving files to disk is my idea of "saving state," but I'm not a laptop person so I don't have a workflow that involves me constantly popping in and out of my machine.
Depending on whether you're installing updates etc. during the reboot process, it may not be actually possible to preserve the state accurately anyway.
Yeah, rebooting PCs via automated scripts is both fucking lazy, and addresses the symptoms, not root cause.
Except for those times where it actually solves the problem, on Windows. (Rebooting Linux almost never fixes anything.)
Level 3 Can you outrun a weeping angel.
The joke being that getting away from a WA has nothing to do with the running.
Drawing a distinction between "shown trying to fly it" and "successfully flying it." I'm not familiar with Adric or Nyssa (classic Who) but I would bet that even if Donna was "given pointers" she couldn't actually do it until the whole metacrisis thing.
Metacrisis Donna and River both being "half-Time Lord" sort of reinforces my point.
And Clara is just a twat. I swear the writers are just trying to see how badly they can abuse canon at this point.
P.S: Hmm...although they did have that scene at the end of the fourth season where the extended companion family flew it collectively.
Mices, but pronounced "MY-sees" like index -> indices.
Especially considering that it's in no way meant to be watertight and you're already wearing SCUBA gear, sounds accurate.

You mean a serial port? I bet yours does and you didn't even know it.
Considering that when I was looking at desktops back in 2007, even, I only ran across one that did, I'd take that bet.
Until recently nobody other than a Time Lord could manage to fly the TARDIS at all. Now I'm pretty sure the writers will say Clara could sit on the console and accidentally fly it better than the Doctor himself.
I suppose it's my own fault for thinking, "They couldn't possibly have a more annoying companion than Donna." CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
I also question their programming chops, remembering that one horrid episode where the WiFi was killing people.
You know it's going to be a good episode when you're literally 10 seconds in and you're already cringing in horror.
After any salary raise, you will have less money at the end of the month than you did before.
