So man strawman attacks, jumping to conclusions and divisive terms it's hard to take anything on that website serious.

> It’s no surprise that anti-rights zealots are excited about KOSA: it would let them shut down websites that cover topics like race, gender, and sexuality.

> Second, KOSA would ramp up the online surveillance of all internet users by expanding the use of age verification and parental monitoring tools. Not only are these tools needlessly invasive, they’re a massive safety risk for young people who could be trying to escape domestic violence and abuse.

I remember there's a privEsc on old versions of fail2ban.

not super relevant here, but for those interested. There is a cli tool called `tldr` that takes in the name (of a tool) and prints out common usages.
Like it or not, money does solve (or can simplify) a lot of problems in life . Providing a good education to your kids does not have to be mutually exclusive to leaving money behind. Why not do both?
I would prefer that than not doing good at all. Doing good is doing good, leaving a legacy or not.

It would be very helpful to help figure out how to do things in a large codebase with little documentation.

IMO Removing/merging repeated questions is important to keep up the standard of SO and is what makes searching easier in the long run. I agree that comments sometimes can get very picky and discouraging.
I know it's nice to blame China for everything... but it's not really the root of the problem here, supply chain management and control is.
I'm using a N5 as my primary phone... It seems mad to me that the life expectancy of a phone is so short those days. :P
