    I saw that happen once in a big presentation.

    There was a team of students presenting their work to ~200 people. Right in the middle, a pop-up says updates are finished and the computer needs to restart. It has a helpful 60-second countdown, but “cancel” is grayed out, so all they can do is watch.

    I was only in the audience and I still have nightmares.
