Gee, Windows 10, thanks for ignoring my settings and not bothering me with a low battery alert. I was in a state of flow, and might have found myself pulled out of it by the need to save my work and plug in my power brick.

The unnanounced shutdown at 0% battery was a nice added touch. You're so thoughtful.

@ElectricKeet If you give me ten minutes, I can come meet you. I think I got something important done.

@orrery I do have my power brick, so it's not an emergency, but I'll be just as glad to head out early!

Fortunately, InDesign's auto-recovery worked right this time, and I only lost a couple minutes of work, easily recovered.
