I’ve heard of Australian bushfires traveling close to 100km/h (60mph) with a strong wind.

What’s even worse is if the flame front is diagonal to your path of travel. The flames might be going 50km/h, but if they’re coming at you at 60%, then you have to be going at least 100km/h to outrun them.

Fires don’t need to follow roads. If a fire is traveling perpendicular to the only road you have, you can’t drive away from it.

It’s not easier than Windows, it’s the devil you know.

Sure it’s slow, but you know how slow. It does updates at the wrong time, but you know it will turn on again eventually. It sends all your data to Microsoft, but no-one has come to your door to harass you because what’s in your data.

Linux is some obscure thing that would take time and effort to learn, and you’re tired from work and just want to use a computer without thinking about it.

Things might be different if Windows wasn’t the default/only option when buying a new laptop.

“I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgement and intentions are.”

It might help.

At least Windows appears user friendly. Arch otoh is quite hard to set up the first time.

I have 2. One has broken twice from over use, so I reprinted the broken piece and swapped it.

Are you suggesting that all countries on earth will adopt this law, or that all developers in all countries will comply with the law of one country?

Will all previous versions of all OSs be deleted? Will all OSs become closed source so you can’t just remove the age verification part?

Will you be the only person on earth who is willing to break an unethical law to have basic privacy?

If yes to all the above, then you may need to start learning how to program.

Take back control of your OS. Use a different OS if you need to.

Multiple independent braking systems and adequate maintenance.

A single failure may cause the escalator to stop working, but it takes 3 failures in a row to make it catastrophic. Regular maintenance catches this failures before 3 in a row can occur.

If any of the stairs are damaged and cannot stay attached correctly, there is a chance of falling into the machinery below, which will not stop just because a human is in the way.

If the failure is in the braking system, it can quickly turn into rapidly moving stairs, which can be very lethal.
Most escalators have multiple independent braking systems so that this doesn’t happen, but some poorly maintained escalators have been discovered with 2 or even all 3 systems disabled.

Yeah, tell that wall to get out of your way.

I didn’t know about %n, but otherwise I’ve been using this.

I’m disappointed that my world clocks broke and only display UTC after upgrading to LMDE 7.

I had issues with my 2 ASUS RT-AX53U routers. Devices dripping off the network and randomly slow internet. Replacing the firmware with OpenWRT fixed all of the issues, and I’m still using them.

OpenWRT (on these routers) does support mesh networks. I only have experience with these, so I can’t make any informed recommendations.

I’ve had issues with printers and printer drivers until I got a brother laser printer. It seems to just work all the time.
