    once you have some experience under your belt, these are non-issues:

    • deciding to “learn Linux” the hard way by starting with a specialized distro (Slackware, Gentoo, Alpine)
    • switching to unstable or testing branches before you’re ready ’cause you want bleeding edge or “stable is too far behind”
    • playing around with third-party repositories before understanding them (PPAs in Ubuntu, AUR in Arch)
    • bypassing the package manager (especially installing with curl | sudo sh)
    • changing apps for no other reason than “it hasn’t been updated for a year”








  • need to educate drivers

    this is one of the big ones that shows up in our car-centric worldview – just sticking to motorized vehicles: truck drivers are expected to know truck rules, car rules, and motorcycle rules – motorcyclists are expected to know motorcycling rules, car rules, and truck rules – car drivers are expected to know car rules and that’s it

    when the majority of our population doesn’t know about (and subsequently doesn’t care about) anything else sharing the road with them … car drivers that are just as aggressive towards motorcyclists as they are towards bicyclists, car drivers are completely oblivious to stopping distances and momentum of big rigs …
