If you want to change public policy you have to participate in public policy.

Even if you vote for nobody on the ballot, you still show up and vote for nobody.

Hmm, perhaps, but personally I have a problem with this expression that there is "something terribly wrong with us". It feels awfully close to the Christian guilt-tripping nonsense of original sin that I grew up with. It's a waste of time, and sanity.

So funny connection there - Adam Savage (of Mythbusters) is a fan of knolling and he played a crew member on the Arboghast. He appears in the scene where the ship is disassembled by the protomolecule:

Just, ah, be careful with DIY laser cosmetic devices, and don't trust safety goggles that come in the box with them.

This is relatively minor. The bigger risk when running a downstream OS is that the team does not have the finances, the staff, or the broad-ecosystem visibility to support their own security research and development in any functional capacity, and there is an unavoidable delay in integrating security updates from the upstream OS.

This is a big problem. It makes running any small-team derivative OS a high-risk choice.
