Eh… they lose the motivation to fix issues for free that don’t affect them. Crazy, I know.
More software I wanted was packaged for Arch than Ubuntu.
Say you rented a server at Amazon and ran your own VPN server software on it. Not that hard. The server could expose an HTTPS endpoint.
VPN software on your laptop connects to that.
From the network level, it appears you spend a lot of time connected to the same random website, hosted on some IP not owned by a VPN company.
A floppy disk is fine, just like Photoshop uses terms like dodge and burn, references to obsolete dark room methods, like cutting and “pasting” were literally how some layout projects worked.
Referencing the last physical incarnation of saving a file seems fitting!
Imagine a beach of infinite length with one lemonade stand on it.
Where do you open a second lemonade stand to maximize sales if people will buy from the closet stand?
The answer: next to the first stand. Everyone to the left of your stand will find you are the best option and everyone to the right will choose the other.
This model explains why two political parties along a spectrum can end up not too different from each other in an attempt to capture the most votes.
IIRC, The first ambulance for Reid Hospital was donated by a cycling club, the League of American Wheelman. This was around 1905.
Why cyclists? They had been the ones advocating for better road conditions at the time.
A number of hospitals still run as non-profits and accept donations.

As stated in the Executive Order, this order applies only to federal agencies, which the President controls.
It is not a general US law, which are created by Congress.
There is way to do this that works with even older computers and is easy to manage.
That’s with Edubuntu and thin-client computing using the Linux Terminal Server project, LTSP.
In that model, you install Linux once on a server. Each computer in the lab is set to boot over the network from the server.
This way there is one computer to maintain, the users can’t access root and all the storage is centralized.
Even old computers with low CPU and RAM and no hard drive can make good thin clients.
A number of schools have been using this approach for 15+ years.
Enjoy the interview with Hamid Ali, owner/operator of the Doner Kebab food truck on the No Dishes podcast.
From $100 in his pocket to a successful food truck business.
