I guess people from a post capitalist society might have issues with exploiting others for their own gain.

Just to clarify. You go slower or you stay away. Your don't have to do both. The ideia is to be far enough that the bike toppling to the side doesn't result in a cyclist under your car, or that hitting the cyclist is at a relative low speed.

And I honestly see more drivers overreacting to things that would just dent or scratch their cars than cyclists losing control when they have their lives endangered.

If I'm correct, roads were for everyone, then they decided to make it only for cars and the rest has to fight to have small strips dedicated for them because they supposedly get in the way.

And about the cyclists. They might be assholes, or you might be passing too close or too fast.

I haven't thought about the subject too deeply, so I'll just interject a consideration. Are you thinking about the situation from a purely individualistic point of view, in which families live completely apart? Intergenerational units are more common in some cultures than others, with everyone contributing to the same household. It would be the same reasoning of spouses getting an inheritance, but you might be against that as well.

Today I learned that "Roubou mas fez" has a cousin in Romania.

You can use the math below and correct the years to be close to 5. But we would end up with a mummy because of the conditions (wind leading to dessication).

Honestly, unless I see the correct version, my brain defaults to this name as the correct one.

So many Brazilian books and you get the one I can't imagine any school in Brazil recommending.

Try thinking like this: Having more power means that your decisions, preferences, biases and limitations have more weight. With more weight, you will bulldoze whatever other people want. With all the weight, whatever you say goes. The corruption is a part of the system overruling the rest through no malicious intent.

I was annoyed too when I saw the message, but, if I understood it correctly, it's a matter of widening the scope of the LTS version. The extra packages would only be updated on the next release, or are already updated if you don't use LTS. The message make it seem like they are withholding security patches, but it has always been like that and nobody cared. We just want everything to be updated, even if it'll make no difference.
