That sounds more like it. Although I don't know how many silent updates actually happen unless you've deliberately set them to, I find most default to manual. Still - maybe you had a rogue app suck up the juice? That definitely happens.
Mountains of Madness I have only read in comic form so far. Apparently Del Toro really really wants to make a film of it but the Man won't give him budget.
I assume there's a setting for it. In fact I vaguely remember seeing one. But yeah my tablet was on sleep or standby or whatever it's called with these things yesterday and this was the result.
Well it's an awesome read. If Del Toro managed to not turn it into a Transformers remake it could make a good flick too. Though the territory's been well covered by eg Carpenter's The Thing, and more recently Prometheus.
I much prefer auto updating. Fuck doing it myself.
I messed with the screen dpi on my Nexus 4 a while back and set it to a non standard value which the play store didn't like. That meant nothing updating. When I fixed the dpi issue I had to go and manually update about 50 apps, much prefer my phone do it when it wants to, though that does seem to be at fairly random intervals.
Surely you didn't have to manually update all of them? You just say 'update all'? Only time it wants manual ones per app is if they change permissions, which I assume would also prevent an auto update.
